CS:GO Demo Recoder for CallAdmin-Middleware

CS:GO demo recorder for reports using CallAdmin-Middleware as a manager.

How it works

This script downloads demos from CallAdmin-Middleware, process them using demofile to extract demo, player and chat data, builds a .vdm for each demo (that way commands can be run according to what tick is being played in the demo), uses HLAE to record a raw video of it, and then transcodes the result using ffmpeg.

Requirements

• An installation of CallAdmin-Middleware;
• ffmpeg;
• HLAE;
• Computer with a GPU that can run CS:GO;
• Enough storage to hold raw video (the same duration as the demo been recorded).

Installing

Clone this repository and run:

npm install

Configuration

Most of the configurations can be found inside config.js:

csgoExecPath

Path to CS:GO executable

csgoDemoPath

Path to store downloaded demos. Recommended to store inside the same path as the executable so playdemo can be shorter.

csgoRecordPath

Where HLAE raw recordings should be stored (expect large files).

csgoRecordingsPath

Where ffmpeg should store transcoded recordings.

hlaeExecPath

Path to HLAE executable.
