WTF Source Recorder

[Mooostache]

Ok, so I'm trying to record some stuff for a machinima and, as always, I hide the physgun beam and hud. But when I'm done recording and I play back the demo, I see that the physgun beam and hud still appear even though i turned them off.... any help?

I think this is in the wrong section but, did you type in the command to hide the physgun beam correctly?

In game go to [highlight]Options[/highlight] and [highlight]hiding[/highlight] under [highlight]Visuals[/highlight] and hook off [highlight]Draw Phsygun Beams[/highlight].

Also type [highlight]cl_drawhud 0[/highlight] in the console to remove the hud. [highlight]cl_drawhud 1[/highlight] to get it back.

Try turning them off after you turn source recorder on and just edit that out.

hmm nice idea, ill try it eventually

ok, i figured it out, i tried taking Billiam's advice and turn the things off after i started recording and that worked for the physgun beams but not the hud so i had to type cl_drawhud 0 while the demo was playing back to hide it :D :D

I heard people had to resort to different methods for some obscure reason. Glad it worked out.
