Problem seeing old demos

[b4ckdoor]

Hello friends I have problems to visualize some old demo in my wolfenstein, in case it is in jaymod 2.1.7, it happens that the servers nowadays is with jaymod 2.2.0, and when I put the demo appears an error and versions, it is I can install this jaymod 2.1.7.pk3, and get to watch normally

It may depend on what version of ET that you are using or were using back then.

 

ET 2.55 made  demo  files with the extension of *.dm_82.

ET 2.6 and 2.6b make files with the extension of *.dm_84.

 

If your old demos have the extension of md_82, then you can just rename the extension to dm_84.  The opposite is true, too. 

 

Here is a topic from 2012 where we discussed various demo techniques and problems.

I understand what you said, but my problem is that it is not compatible with the jaymod version and I do not know how to install jaymod 2.1.7,    

if I knew how to install old versions of jaymod I think I could

Jaymod 2.2.0 should auto-download when you connect to an =F|A= Jaymod server and put its pk3s into your Jaymod folder.  Perhaps some of your download cvars are missing or unset.

 

Thanks @Buckwild                     

 

I will have to remove my own jay220 pk3 and make sure that it does auto-download from our 'redirect' server.

My auto-download worked fine.

 

        = moved "jaymod-2.2.0.pk3" to a finance folder and connected to jay#2.  The 220 downloaded in a few seconds and the server started right up.
        = I replaced the 220 with a "jaymod-2.1.8.pk3 " and the 220 downloaded right away and my ET connected to jay2.

I did a little experiment and "corrupted" a copy of the jaymod 220 by removing some folders from inside of it.

 

Jaymod was not phased at all.  It downloaded a new version of 220 and played right on.

 

My etconsole.log showed these lines:

Need paks: jaymod/jaymod-2.2.0.pk3 (local file exists with wrong checksum)
Need paks: @jaymod/jaymod-2.2.0.pk3@jaymod/jaymod-2.2.0.1549b9c6.pk3

 

It left the corrupted 220 in the jaymod folder and played the game with the "jaymod-2.2.0.1549b9c6.pk3" file!
