pringles noscoutcapping Acrophobia

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.

pringles_noscoutcaps_acrophobia.rec

Verified Tribes 1 demo. The engine's own bitstream reader walked all 67,982 server packets, 26,302 recorded inputs to the stream terminator — 100% of the file decoded, no desync.

This Demo was done when I was in SouthEasterSlayers tribe [SES].  I'm no longer in the tribe because of real life being out of my control :). Great bunch of guys!

I sat and played Acrophobia for about 3 hours on a Saturday after the release of the Balanced maps.  This Demo shows just a small portion of routes I came up with back then.  It also has been about 2 months since I've touched this map.  

If you love capping as much as I do even hosting a game offline and capping around on this map is a blast. 

Enjoy! =)
