ievswa-7899-ir-style

A Tribes 1 client demo — the server’s own packet stream as one player recorded it. The match record below was decoded out of that stream. Anything read off the filename instead is in its own box, and says so.

Watch it

This plays the recording with the actual Tribes engine, compiled to WebAssembly — the same playDemo() path the game itself uses. The engine is about 7 MB; it then streams just the game data this recording touches from the archive, as it touches it. Every piece is cached and shared across the site, so a second demo on the same map costs almost nothing. Nothing is fetched until you press play.

IE-vs-WA-IR-7.8.99.rec

Verified Tribes 1 demo. The engine's own bitstream reader walked all 24,310 server packets, 56,111 recorded inputs to the stream terminator — 100% of the file decoded, no desync.

Readme — ievswa-style.txt (from the archive itself)
This is a demo from the "Game of the Century" as it was labled.  IE vs WA, this is the second map, we had won on Roller the first one.  This was when I was still in IE and before i gave in and started using the ski script, so no flames on my play ;)  Also of note, blah, Solon, OH was benched for this map (love you Jay)  It's funny to watch how spazish we used to play compared to today's standards.
