ant Posted November 5, 2015 Did old DOOM2 v1.9 recordings save text chats? If so, then how can I have them to show up? Thank you in advance. :) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
VGA Posted November 5, 2015 I googled and found this http://doomwiki.org/wiki/Demo Display commands not affecting gameplay, such as chat text and the IDDT cheat code, are not recorded in a LMP file 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

RestlessRodent Posted November 6, 2015 The best you will get are the notes in the text files which come with demos. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted November 6, 2015 I talked to ant recently-ish on YouTube about a DM wad he made years ago, so knowing this I'm thinking it's from demos he has, not downloaded ones. Chat wasn't saved because every kilobyte counted a lot more back then, or more likely they just hadn't even considered it. It's a shame though, would be funny to look back on old in-game convos! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Adding chat would have complicated the demo format which I suppose they did not want to do at all. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
