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.

Team1vsTeamSkul(4)_Round1_Map1_Snowblind_Wadmaasi.rec

Verified Tribes 1 demo. The engine's own bitstream reader walked all 15,811 server packets, 52,566 recorded inputs to the stream terminator — 100% of the file decoded, no desync.

Same readme for all my demos; I played light D, sniper\\chainwhore.  Horrible start on the first Snowblind map, settled down into a bit of a groove and did pretty OK after that.  First real experience playing as a "TRIBE" (of sorts), first time playing LPB since April '99, first time playing CTF since about Feb '99, first time playing chainwhore ever.  All in all, I don't think my performance was horribly flawed, but I'm also not about to take on IE by myself.

For the record, skiing is one of the most wretched instances of code I've EVER seen in a game.  So there.  *thbbbt*  I look forward to TRIBES2 with its varied terrain and chopped-back skiing.  So what if you think my opinion don't mean shit 'cause I ain't in a top 20 OGL\\TP TRIBE.  *heh*

C&H and D&D are where it's at.
