Demo Conversion????

Post by Duper »

Is there a utility out there that converts a D3 .dem file to avi or something?

I could go about recording the demo with FRAPS but a conversion utility would probably be cleaner.

Anyone??

There's no such thing--the demo recorder records the motion of each unit etc then re-runs the game, re-rendering anything in the process. There is no known way to record .dem files without a screen capture program.
