I don't know, but, Grappling Hook is having several changes each update, so every time an update releases, it would be need to re-made the entire video. In my opinion, I would wait until Mannpower to release it completely before doing a Weapon Demonstration video.

There are some kind of long pauses when I imagine you're pressing some binds to set things up in the Sniper+Spy clip. Try to shorten that.
In that same clip, it's not immediately obvious if you're following the hooked person or if your own movement makes the other person move (until later in the clip when the spy moves behind an object). Try to show movement from the target in clear sight when you aren't yet fully attached to them, or perhaps show it while you're up in the air (by having the target be on the crates or something) to make it clear it's not you walking. It's also not clear if you can use your other weapons.
Also, since this is an all-class weapon you need to show it for all classes. I suggest repeating showing a short fly-around clip around the same itinerary. — Wind 17:36, 24 January 2016 (PST)

Pictogram comment.png Demonstration of how the sound effect works

Pardon me if I'm putting in the wrong place, but I noticed that Infernal Orchestrina includes the demonstration. I know that was for a pyroland item, but what if the Boston Boom-Bringer had a demonstration video where it shows the sound effect that is played when taunting? Just like the Orchestrina had (albeit the Pyroland thing). There is several sound effects, though, so all of them has to be played. User Gabrielwoj Signature 1.pngUser Gabrielwoj Signature 2.png - User Gabrielwoj Signature 3.png 21:32, 26 March 2015 (PDT)

Infernal Orchestrina was demonstrated because it turns pyroland vision on by itself, not because of the sound effect it adds. This item has no such dramatic change, so no need to demonstrate — Wind 15:08, 29 March 2015 (PDT)

Pictogram wait.png This demonstration has been reserved: Jimbo Jones (talk) 09:27, 29 August 2015 (PDT) I'll do it. I've been noticing the demonstrations have been falling behind, we should get stuff done. Jimbo Jones (talk) 09:27, 29 August 2015 (PDT)

Alright, I got the first version of the demo here: http://youtu.be/MJAqQuEUVls. Sorry it looks a bit stretched, I selected to not maintain the aspect ratio while in Sony Vegas. Otherwise it would have gotten a 4:3 ratio. If you need demo files, I'll be happy to provide the downloads. Jimbo Jones (talk) 12:24, 31 August 2015 (PDT)

Sorry, but the ratio requirement is there because it should be respected... Stretching the video doesn't help. Similarly:
  • The video must run in DirectX 9+ mode or OpenGL (yours is running in DirectX 8 or 7 mode, you can tell by the lack of reflective cartoon-y shaders on the characters and the non-dynamic lighting of the map). You can change this by running the game with the -dxlevel 95 flag.
  • Framerate is choppy
  • The video is cut on the sides (ammo HUD counter and kill notices are chopped off)
  • Video and audio glitch while taunting at 0:57

Please see if you can get the video quality up to the requirements first before making large demonstration efforts. If you can't run TF2 at better settings than that then I'm afraid you can't really make demonstration videos :( — Wind 20:21, 9 September 2015 (PDT)

Don't worry, I got a new widescreen laptop with way more graphical capabilities. I'll be able to turn in the demonstration in much better quality and I won't have to stretch it. Now that I look at the video, I agree that it isn't demonstration quality. Jimbo Jones (talk) 20:45, 12 September 2015 (PDT)

DEMONSTRATION REQUEST: I've got a rough draft right here, of Baby Face post-Gun Mettle. Feedback welcome. Edited with Sony Vegas, 720p WMV. The video does not have the thumbnail, I'd expect that to be added in post. https://youtu.be/UuM1zwVTEwo PePeToads (talk) 03:01, 15 October 2015 (PDT)

Not a bad attempt PePeToads, however Jimbo Jones has reserved this demonstration, so only he should be working on it. Either way I have still watched your video and these are what I picked up on.

  • The loadout text popup has a white border. Try restarting your game, usually it fixes it.
  • Overall the loadout view seems a bit low quality, the Scout appears to be very pixel-y.
  • Please use the default TF2 crosshair.
  • A bit too long of a delay between the shots at the Pyro.
  • You shouldn't reload until you have emptied your magazine in the first clip.
  • After shooting the Medic you should shoot the wooden target at the back.
  • Though the second clip is interesting, overall it'd be much more effective showing it how the current demonstration does.
  • Music looping needs work, primarily noticeable at 1:00 and 2:00. It's also too loud, the gameplay should be louder than the music.
  • The double jumping clip again, would be demonstrated better if it's more like the current demonstration. Also, if the bots don't have a purpose (Both the Medic and the Soldier don't appear to in this clip) I'd suggest kicking them from the server.
  • The splitscreen should show more than just two. It'd be worth seeing the speed comparison when the Boost bar is at different levels. The current demonstration has a 6 way splitscreen, so I'd suggest going with that, and also, if doing a 2 way I'd suggest having them next to each other rather than on top.
  • At the end of the demonstration I'd suggest having the fade out a bit faster.
  • Just a side note, when uploading your preview to Youtube, please make them unlisted.

Overall not bad for an attempt at this demonstration. However, in the future keep an eye out for demonstrations that have been reserved. If you're unsure on how the discussion page works and whatnot, check the Project page for the basic rules and guidelines. The suggestions I have made are mine though, and Wind may have a different opinion on a few of them. However, since this demonstration is reserved from another user, considering a video from someone else would not be considered unless the demonstration has been unreserved. Currently there are plenty of demonstrations that need to be done though, so feel free to take a stab at one that no one has touched. :) User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 04:10, 15 October 2015 (PDT)

How would I go about looping the music better? I didn't want to just have the whole file played over and over, but I couldn't get the loop to be seamless PePeToads (talk) 08:12, 15 October 2015 (PDT)

Here you can download the extended version. It's outrageous in length, so it should be able to fit any demonstration, no matter how long. User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 01:16, 16 October 2015 (PDT)

I'm remade it: https://youtu.be/xxJNRqj2Bbw, it is good? This my first demonstration and sorry for my idiot skill in sony vegas. Evil PanCake (talk) 00:11, 22 November 2015 (PST)

A few things:
  • Please install the HUD override. The damage numbers are small and red in the video.
  • Transitions should be plain fades (here there's this brightening-to-white effect going on)
  • Split-screen should have each clip be centered. You can use the split-screen HUD override to show the boost meter in the right place.
  • The boost reduction is best shown by showing it by speed. For example, do a split-screen with both scouts at one end of the map and full boost. Add a level 1 sentry hidden on the side in one clip. Show its presence at the beginning of the clip. Then show both scouts running to the other end of the map. The scout will get hit so he will arrive later.
  • The demonstration doesn't show how to acquire boost. It's just one shot at the very beginning that gives you full boost. Look at the existing demonstration that cycles through all weapons to show the rate at which you can acquire boost.
  • The speed comparison can be a 6-way split-screen (see existing demonstration)
  • The ways to lose boost are defined more precisely in the existing demonstration (double-jumping from falling or rocket blast)

I'll try my hand at it. I've gotten most of the clips down. I just need to put the 2 demos together and get a screen recorder for the loadout.--Punishment Fatal (talk) 23:18, 10 October 2015 (PDT)
Edit: I have the demos, but I'm having trouble compressing them. Quicktime doesn't want to let me work in h264 and the tga's have some sort of stop at certain frames when I didn't have in them in the game. How can I use a program that can smooth out the tga's or use a different format while recording a movie to extract the video and audio without stuttering or 1,000 files flooding my TF2?
If you're talking about bringing the images together to form a clip, personally I use Virtualdub. After you srcdemo2 and use Virtualdub you can delete all the images you used, as you will have the video. User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 01:21, 11 October 2015 (PDT)
Yeah, I was using Virtualdub as well. It's just when I was watching the tgas compiled together, I noticed that at certain tgas the game completely halted and froze as if my game was stuttering though in the demo itself there was no visible sign of any framerate drop. Punishment Fatal (talk) 01:26, 11 October 2015 (PDT)
I've also seemed to have encountered another problem. Everytime I try to open SrcDemo2, it just loads and stops immediately even without opening a window to let me troubleshoot the problem. Do you know how to work around this? Also, should I use OBS for recording the loadout or do you recommend some other program? Punishment Fatal (talk) 03:47, 11 October 2015 (PDT)
Throw me a friend request, I can help out. Add me. User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 05:48, 11 October 2015 (PDT)
Alright, I found the problem for Virtualdub. It stuttered since it wasn't an actual player and didn't load all the frames together. However, when I exported the frames, it reduced the quality quite a bit. Is there any way I can keep the quality while converting? Punishment Fatal (talk) 13:10, 11 October 2015 (PDT)
Edit: Nevermind, only Windows Media player was showing the quality as blocky. Windows Movie Maker shows it as normal. Punishment Fatal (talk) 13:36, 11 October 2015 (PDT)
Alright, here's the rough edit for the Demonstration. I haven't added a loadout option yet or rendered it in SrcDemo2, but I want to hear your guys' critique. (Also thanks again to Obilisk for sending me the training vid music). Punishment Fatal (talk) 19:26, 12 October 2015 (PDT)
Overall It's looking pretty good so far Punishment Fatal. My only suggestions would be to perhaps not fire two shots every time you intend to shoot. From the looks of your demonstration it seems compulsory to always fire both barrels. I'd say maybe just shoot one shot when you know the other won't be shooting at anything. ( An example is at 0:40 when you kill the medic, one of your shots go to waste. Try killing him with just the amount of bullets you need to, and again straight after, you should only shoot the backboard once.) Also, the ending sound should merge with the original demonstration music, rather than cutting to no music then bringing it in. Otherwise, as I said, looking good! User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 04:16, 15 October 2015 (PDT)
Here's the fixed edit. Again, it's pre SrcDemo2 and loadout since I'm still trying to get SrcDemo to work (Dokanlibrary doesn't want to work for me on Windows 8) and I'm trying to decide which program to use for the loadout screen (would OBS be the best option?).
The clips you have provided are looking very nice. Though, not sure about the blurred transition, I'd say try avoid the blur and just have a transition if possible. Personally I use Fraps to record loadout views, can't say I've experienced much with other programs though I'm sure any one of them would do the trick. User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 05:10, 18 October 2015 (PDT)
What Obilisk said, plus:
  • Audio and video appear desynced. Check the shot sounds vs video during the first clip at 0.5x speed.
  • Make sure to reload at least once with only one shot fired to show both shells being thrown out. This can be done with the medic if you end on a single shell left, or otherwise after shooting the back board with a single shot.
  • Don't twitch-jump (1:40). See current demonstration. You don't need to twitch, just need to be looking at the right angle while jumping.
  • Framerate is choppy (SrcDemo2 would fix it, and if that doesn't work, plain Source Recorder still should)

Wind 14:13, 18 October 2015 (PDT)

I must unfortunately remove my reservation. My computer does not want to co-operate well with any recording program and I no longer have the free time I once had to continue with the videos. Punishment Fatal (talk) 23:55, 4 January 2016 (PST)

The only way i can get the Golden Wrench, Golden Pan and Saxxy is to use a plugin called [TF2Items Giveweapon] for Sourcemod and install it in a Dedicated server. With that plugin you can give yourself any weapon. So the problem is, any recorded demos in a Dedicated server with plugins installed the movement will not be smooth, exactly what happened to my Mini-Sentry video, and the clips where the movement are not smoother was recorded in my Dedicated server. Well i don't know what causes the problem and i can't figure it out. I recorded a video of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiWA7MdoRLk That would be really nice if Valve can actually borrow these just for recording demonstrations :> User Karmacharger Charger 2.png Karmacharger 1:09 AM 8/14/2015 (PDT)
The demo doesn't look that bad to me. Another way you could do this is by playing on a custom server with that mode and with host_timescale 0.1. Record both the demo and fraps at the same time. Then speed up the video 10x with frameblending and you'll get something that's a bit like SrcDemo2 would give you (it's equivalent to 10 fpf and 360 shutter angle). Then you can play the demo at demo_timescale 1.0 to get the audio out of it. Merge it into one video, add the backpack view, then add in the pre-echo'd versions of the Golden Wrench sound lines. It's not easy but can be done. This demonstration is a one-of-a-kind and it's hard to make, yes. — Wind 15:56, 16 August 2015 (PDT)
Wow, it actually worked! It just a test, i used "Smart resample" for the clip, and speed it up x10. User Karmacharger Charger 2.png Karmacharger 12:30 AM 9/26/2015 (PDT)
Video looks good but the audio is badly synced. The hit sound should start just a few frames before the hit happens. An easier way to sync is to look at the enemy's lips and do lipsyncing on their "ow" voice lines. Also (I know it's just a test but just putting it out there just in case), remember to add in all the golden wrench voice lines on each kill. 4 enemies, 4 lines. You can make this easier by overwriting the engineer .wav files with blank audio, that way he doesn't accidentally speak when killing. Then you can add the 4 golden wrench voice lines later. — Wind 18:45, 26 September 2015 (PDT)

Is this here good? https://youtu.be/GUFxZuTWU1o Luigifan656 (talk) 06:31, 30 July 2015 (PDT)

I personally noticed a few things:
  • Quality I think could use some improvement, try increasing your bitrate or quantizer settings when rendering the final video.
  • A minor thing, but usually the mouse pointer is already pointing at the backpack icon when the video starts.
  • The splitscreen scene looks weird, doesn't look like you centered and cropped the clips well enough. I'm assuming you meant to make a three-way splitscreen, try fiddling around until you can make three equally wide clips next to each other.
  • The music ends too soon, the "clack" ending sound should be at the very end.

This is not an official review, but it should give you something to work with before Wind returns. Good luck - Uufje 07:52, 30 July 2015 (PDT)

Hi Luigifan656, first clip looks good to me, though the second clip needs some work.
  • Generally speaking, the hud needs to be present in all 3 splitscreens, two of yours appear to be cropped. However, with this specific splitscreen you don't even need the hud present at all, as the splitscreens are comparing the speed rather than the health or ammo.
  • Please give more time for the transition.
  • Start the splitscreen from a stationary potision, rather than having the heavies already running. (Basically try get the clip to be as identical as the original demonstration )
  • During the splitscreen there is no sound. I'd suggest having the shooting clip's sound play as well as the far left sound's play.
  • You should swap the splitscreen order, having the shooting clip on the far right and the spinning clip in the middle.
  • Don't end the splitscreen clip so suddenly, give some time then unspin the miniguns. (Again, try mimic the original demonstration.)
  • Also, are you running a german version of the game? When you shoot the enemies they appear to spark. Not sure if this is an issue or not, but worth noting.

Overall, good attempt at your demonstration dude, the first clip looks spot on to me, though the splitscreens do need some work. I know it seems like a mouthful, splitscreens can be a pain, but most of them are a easy fix. - This is only my opinion, so it'd be worth waiting for Wind's response. User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 19:54, 30 July 2015 (PDT)

Yeah, the splitscreens don't seem to be centered. The middle clip is good, since the minigun is exactly in the middle, but the other two are still off. Try to fiddle around and make the right and left clips look like the middle one. - Uufje 00:37, 31 July 2015 (PDT)

This is better I think: https://youtu.be/qDKNgbImsZ4 oh, and I am playing on the german version of the game. I hope that isn't bad. Luigifan656 (talk) 07:37, 31 July 2015 (PDT)

Hmmm what is it? http://prntscr.com/7z90rp RADIST | T | C 07:43, 31 July 2015 (PDT)

Oh, I think Sony Vegas corrupted the file. Weird that I didn't see it when I edited it.

This? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zF0H-HOHHQ&feature=youtu.be Luigifan656 (talk) 13:33, 31 July 2015 (PDT)

Still a few things you need to fix up Luigifan656,

  • The splitscreen position and sizes are still a bit off. To get 3 splitscreens even, have the far left track motion as "-640", the middle clip as "0" and the far right as "640" You then want to crop each clip to the size of "640" Doing so will have all three perfectly even.
  • The right clip is out of sync. It should sync perfectly with the middle clip. (Starting of the walk and ending of the walk should be perfeclty synced for the two.)
  • The far left clip appears to lag/jolt at 0:48.
  • There are bullet holes present in your clips all over the walls. To clear them simply type "r_cleardecals" in the console.
  • You should allow the miniguns to fully spin down before ending the demonstration. Also, the fade to black for each clip should be synced.
  • Also, I don't think the transitions between the clips should fade completely to black, to make them easily merge simply just place one clip over the other with a 0:15 transition. It should look like this. User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 00:54, 1 August 2015 (PDT)

Feel free to wait for Wind's responce, I'm not sure what his opinion is about the minigun spin ups, as he may want them to be walking then spin and walk (Like the original minigun demonstrations are currently) Again though, it's very close to looking nice. Keep it up! User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 00:54, 1 August 2015 (PDT)

Oh hi. Thanks for iterating pretty quickly on this demonstration. Here's my opinion:
  • All of what Obilisk said applies (including spin and walk)
  • For Minigun-like weapon demonstrations, it's customary to move a little bit forward in the spawning wooden box so that you are right up against the front wooden barrier during the first clip. This way, in this position, the minigun firing effect won't clip against the top wooden barrier. Do so before starting to record (don't move while recording).
  • There is some lag (or perhaps just a jittery mouse) around 0:20-0:23

Wind 16:50, 2 August 2015 (PDT)

Sorry that it took so long, but I hope this is better now: https://youtu.be/OyQibzGLowA Luigifan656 (talk) 15:43, 9 August 2015 (PDT)

Hey Luigifan656,
Another good attempt at the demonstration, but there's still a few things:
  • In my opinion you spend just a little too long shooting the pyro. After the 4th or so 'burst' you can increase the fire rate a bit to finish him off, however this may be alright as it is.
  • Your splitscreen doesn't appear to be even nor centered, each of the clips should have the crosshair in the middle.
  • Your far left splitscreen appears to have a black crosshair, try keep all the colours consistant throughout the demonstration.
  • The miniguns need to spin up completely in sync.
  • Again, try have the heavy's start in a stationary position, then move all at once and then spin up the miniguns. (Just like the original Minigun demonstration.)


Overall, again VERY close Luigi, just a few things. Since you said you're using Sony Vegas I made you a quick video on how to get the clips perfectly placed for a 3 way splitscreen. Note this is on Sony Vegas 12.0 Watch here. Ignore the glitches at the end, it's just Sony Vegas not liking to preview it properly. Wind hopefully will be checking the talk page within the next few days, so you should be able to get his opinion soon as well. Hang tight. User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 05:35, 10 August 2015 (PDT)
I don't have anything to add to what Obilisk said except that no need to worry about #1 (shooting the pyro too long). Nice Vegas tutorial :3 — Wind 15:56, 16 August 2015 (PDT)

As specified on the project page, you need to upload the video to YouTube in unlisted mode. This is because what matters isn't how good your video looks on its own, but how good it looks after YouTube conversion, since that's where it'll end up being seen. For the same reason, it also needs to be all in one video, not just adding new videos for missing clips.
Now regarding the videos themselves: they are both very choppy. The minimum requirement is 30fps without frame drops, with 60fps being better. Are you using Source Recorder? It should let you record at any framerate without slowdown, as long as you do it from source demo files (not playing+recording live).
You also need background music, and the modified HUD files to show damage numbers better. The video contents are good though, timing-wise and content-wise. — Wind 18:39, 20 March 2016 (PDT)
1. I think my friend has a Youtube channel, so I'll get in touch with them.
2. I was actually using OBS. I think it was my proccesor or the anticheat hook that made it choppy.
3. I didn't add in background music because I had to leave early the next day for to visit relatives, so I had to get something out. Also, I was a bit on edge on downloading the hud, although I can probably remove it later. I have to leave again this next weekend, so I'll get to it as soon as I can. weatherman115 04:29, 21 March 2016 (PDT)

Questions and Proposals

Note: This section is for questions and proposals that aren't specific to a single weapon. If you think a demo ought to be remade, then make an entry for it in the Need to be Redone section above and it will be dealt with.

So it appears that the weapon switch speed for every class has increased from 0.67 to 0.5 seconds. Are we going to have to redo all the demonstrations where weapon switching is present? User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 23:00, 25 December 2015 (PST)

Is there any particular reason we don't allow Collector's quality items to be used in demonstrations? Hail Fellow Well Met (talk) 23:38, 11 January 2016 (PST)

My assumption would be that Collector's quality is rather rare, and as such unrecognizable for most players, since Unique and Vintage have been around for ages all players by now should be able to recognize those. Although as far as I know we haven't talked about including Collector's quality in the suitable list for the Loadout screen, maybe now, being a year and a bit after the Collector's quality has been added, Wind may allow it. Let's see what he says. In my opinion the colour hurts my eyes haha. User Obilisk Demo1.png Obilisk 05:09, 12 January 2016 (PST)
It's definitely not the quality most people watching the video would have the item in. And if they do, then they would already know there's no difference between Collector and non-Collector. The reverse is not as likely.
I also don't think disallowing Collector's quality items prevents people from contributing to these videos. Surely if you manage to get a Collector's item you can also manage to get a non-Collector version of it.
More generally, the allowed qualities the "common" ones such that they are recognizable by most people and don't put up a barrier for contribution. It also prevents the temptation people may have to show off their rare item when they have a non-rare version of it. And having a small restricted set keeps videos consistent. — Wind 18:11, 18 January 2016 (PST)

I'm thinking of doing one of the weapons here, but my graphics card is confused as to whether or not it can record video. Could I record the demos and upload the demos for recording? weatherman115 08:11, 2 February 2016 (PST)

That's not the hard part of the work (the demo rendering/cutting/adding backpack view/music mixing/transitions/muxing/uploading to youtube/etc process is significant) and the review process would be pretty awkward if the responsibility is shared between two people, so I don't think that kind of system would work very well. — Wind 14:46, 6 February 2016 (PST)
I knew there was going to be a problem. I'll see if I can get my card to record video, although I'm afraid that it will break the card. But frankly, it's worked before, so it shouldn't be a problem.
...I would put my graphic card name here, but I'm away from my computer and I can't check from anywhere other than there. I do remember that it's an AMD. weatherman115 07:36, 8 February 2016 (PST)
Found it. It's a Radeon HD 5900 Series. weatherman115 15:09, 8 February 2016 (PST)
Can you find the precise number? 5900 is a wide series. I'm pretty sure they're all good enough to use Source Recorder at 7250p or higher though so I don't think you should have problem rendering as long as you have the correct drivers. — Wind 15:36, 27 February 2016 (PST)

For the demonstration config, how do I reset my settings after recording? I'm a very competitive player, so being able to restore my settings would be great. weatherman115 14:45, 17 March 2016 (PDT)
The Source engine configuration file language is very limited. It doesn't have any kind of state-keeping, so there is no way for a config file to be able to undo itself. The only way to have an easy "undo" is rather to have a config file that sets the options you want. Then you can alternate between the two config files in order to switch between one or the other. There's no way for the demonstration-specific config file to figure out what your previous configuration was, so it can't provide a way to undo itself either.
