Zairan Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 I bought my Call of Duty app from the App Store on my Mac, but it's like, not complete? I mean, I know how to make demos and CoD will tell me that it's recording, but I can't find those recordings after I've made them. It's really disconcerting, and I'm kind of worried because it does the same thing for screenshots and even if I use the command for a screenshot that came with the Mac, it doesn't exactly get the pic with the command like it usually does. (Failed explanation). Anyone have any idea of what I can do to get the demo/screenshot files from CoD? Quote
speedfact Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 can you post the ss you did get by chance? so we can see what you mean? Quote
Zairan Posted January 27, 2012 Author Posted January 27, 2012 I didn't. I got one of my empty home screen. Quote
GI-JOE Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 Hopefully I'm understanding the question, on a Mac COD4 screenshots should be in this directory /Applications/Call of Duty 4/Call of Duty 4 Data/main/screenshots/ and the demos will be in basically the same directory except they would be under /Applications/Call of Duty 4/Call of Duty 4 Data/main/demos/ (if I'm not mistaken) Are you using the command /screenshotjpeg to take your screens?

Administrators JoeDirt Posted January 27, 2012 Administrators Posted January 27, 2012 Why don't you just search for .dm1 file that is a cod4 demo file extension. Quote
Zairan Posted January 27, 2012 Author Posted January 27, 2012 Because it doesn't exist on my laptop. I can search my computer for it, but the only thing it brought up for that was this webpage again. I'm seriously confused. I don't know what happened to my CoD. Quote
speedfact Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 ive had her try it GIs way and also had her search demos folder, and showed her a youtube video. the folder doesnt exist where its supposed to. I'm guessin because she got it as an app from apple...if im not mistaken....? EDIT: maybe someone who knows macs can teamview with her or somethin, cause try to help over xfire not workin lol. that and im not good with macs.... Quote
Zairan Posted January 27, 2012 Author Posted January 27, 2012 Yeah, I bought it from the Apple App Store on my Mac. Quote
Krauersaut Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 No idea what they did with the Mac App Store version, there are some differences to the normal game apparently. Anyway, run the following in your terminal and it will tell you the path: find / -name *.dm_1 2> /dev/null Quote
GoldenBullet Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 I know the problems solved but like usual I just need to bug in I have a mac and i really hate taking SS in COD and having to find them later. If your taking use the macbook command for it. Command+ option 3 takes full screen Quote
Theo519 Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 I suggest calling it something easy to find... example.(console command) /screenshotjpeg Speedfact then search computer for speedfact.jpeg pretty specific. then make short cut to the folder... could it be it needs to be run/searched in Administrator mode? as for demos.. again in Console /record Speedfact then /stoprecord so now do search for speedfact.dm_1 and again make shortcut to folder.

speedfact Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 I suggest calling it something east to find... example.(console command) /screenshotjpeg Speedfact then search computer for speedfact.jpeg pretty specific. then make short cut to the folder... could it be it needs to be run/searched in Administrator mode? as for demos.. again in Console /record Speedfact then /stoprecord so now do search for speedfact.dm_1 and again make shortcut to folder. why am i your demo person? speakin of demos, is there some way for z to be able to watch her own demos. Right now i have her sending them to me so i can review em but lol dont think thats the only way. Quote
Theo519 Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 cause she knows you this is what I use http://www.cybopat.net/vb_cod4player_eng.php and when you run it I set the DEFAULT program to open .dm_1 files to this program so I just double click demo and it does all the work Quote
Zairan Posted January 29, 2012 Author Posted January 29, 2012 BlackMagic gave me that same link, but I can't run it on my Mac. Quote
