omgosh i've been looking for that texture fix for a while. but is there a fix so that when i record my old demos and it splits the audio for videomach. there IS in-game audio while you watch the demo. but when you try to record; there are pictures but no audio track... got a fix for that m4cfly?
i'll upload the big texture fix tonight on another third mirror or you can try torrent... if you have any problems with links or questions ask here in this thread
to the sound_record problem ingame: when you record a demo frag scene with startmovie a 0kb .wav file will be a created, thats a bug but you can record the sound from the frag scene with sony_soundforge or total_recorder, i use total recorder (http://www.totalrecorder.com/checkver.ht.. and its just so simple, 1.dl it (**torren***,...) 2.install 3.ready start dz_css.exe, start the demo then go to the tick where the frag scene begins, pause the demo, go on Desktop (alt tab) and open total_recorder and start the record_button, go back ingame and play the frag scene - now a .wav file will be created which included the sound from the frag scene - when the scene is ready go back on dektop and stop the sound_record ready

imho, you should make the textures fixes a simple zip or rar file, most everyone knows how to install textures. very few people, if any, are going to trust some random exe off the net just because you say it's safe. just a suggestion.
@22 i did that with my links, the .exe links are from original dz_members, my links are only packed in .rar files
@23 did you mean it comes in trouble with your original steam css? NO! The only thing is that your desktop steam_ css icon will be replaced in the dz_css_icon, but both look the same so maybe you have to change it again cuz i like it more to have the orginal steam_css icon on desktop
@24 what is exactly the problem? Didn't work the link or did you download all, install and you have still purple walls or ERROR symbols? plz explain more the problem then maybe i can help you maybe you haven't install it to the right direction? all patches/fix... HAVE BEEN COPIED INTO YOUR DIGITALZONE COUNTER STRIKE-SOURCE FOLDER !
@25 install patch 5 and 6, enjoy! =) its an awesome JD demo
Pangea Movies | Ghost-pictures member // mail me if u have nice demos!
The hl2 engine cannot record surround sound. With the current version of the game, if you have your sound settings to 5.1 or 7.1 surround and try to record with startmovie, the wav file in your cstrike folder will be 0 kb.
So, before you go resorting to recording with total recorder/soundforge (ew, this isn't 1.6!!! :) ), go into your control panel and set you windows sound settings to TWO SPEAKER. The next time you open your game your in game settings should be two speaker as well. I don't know if the bug still occurs with this in the older versions of the game, but that's how you fix it with the current version of css.
I hope that helps anyone getting the recording bug.
@30 so you have a completely black screen? try this: start-command-regedit , then search in the registry (have fun^^) the digitalzone_cstrike launch options and change the dx_level value http://www.directupload.com/files/liddgyw.. i had the same problem and the reason was a wrong dx_level
maybe you can post here a screen?

ok it exist another way but that is so complex, first of all you have to analyze every patch files, then you have to create second patches which only includes the main engine and demo header changes, if you ready with that, then you only had to replace the available main files (engine, demo header) to the engine+demo header dates the demo was made
believe me its more difficult as the delete&reinstall method some m8 have so much disk space, they install digitalzone 10xtimes just to have every games_dates ready for quick viewing all demos they want to
Pangea Movies | Ghost-pictures member // mail me if u have nice demos!
#35 no problem =) #36 There is no problem to have installed both games on your pc, normally i watch old demos and my steam is coeval running, THERE EXIST NO TROUBLE WITH DZ AND ORIGINAL STEAM_CSS. I view old demos since 8 month and i had never any trouble with steam or valve or...etc. and you can delete dz_css whenever you want, your steam_css will never care about it, no files/folder will be deleted beside of the Digitalzone folder!

I will add examples to this thread of an old demo recording after i tinker with the programs.
and I will upload the files to another host when i get home from school [i can upload very quick at home].
In the original thread, it said to install patch 10, but the date on that patch is April 13th, 2006...
Am I missing something?
EDIT: Got it to work with patch 5.
i did that with my links, the .exe links are from original dz_members, my links are only packed in .rar files
@23
