Converter Usage

Desktop App

The Windows x64 Tauri app is the supported 1.x converter. It writes .dtr v8 and manifest ABI 17; there is no supported standalone CLI.

Workspaces

• Library: search, inspect, import, repair, reparse, reveal, or delete local archives.
• Convert Demo: analyze one demo, select rounds/players, and export.
• Batch Conversion: queue demos with bounded concurrency, retry, stop, and resume.
• Settings: manage paths, UI, export defaults, playback files, commands, and demotracer.config.json.

All library and conversion data stays local.

Output

<archive>/
  manifest.json
  round00/t/<player>.dtr
  round00/ct/<player>.dtr
  voice/round00.dtv
  avatars/<sha256>.<ext>

voice/ and avatars/ are created only when evidence exists. Keep the whole archive; manifest.json is the normal playback entry point.

Defaults

• Recommended rounds selected; suspicious rounds excluded.
• Voice export on when usable voice exists.
• Text chat stored automatically.
• Cosmetic/econ export off until its warning is accepted.
• Runtime cosmetic alignment remains separately default-off.

Round/player selection reduces export work, not the initial full-demo parse. Judge performance with the packaged Release app.

Archive pages generate dtr_go round and dtr_go seq commands. Final bot-slot ownership is still validated by the server runtime.

See Installation, Voice Export, and the canonical documentation index.
