    Are you at any risk of being VAC banned by running these programs? I remember in another frag movie tutorial (may have been yours, I'm unsure) it was said that you could be at risk of getting VAC banned due to running these types of things, if you're not careful. That scared me away from trying it out, even though I really want to make them. I'm rather forgetful at times and don't want to risk a VAC ban by simply forgetting to turn off a *demo recording* software :( Especially due to VAC bans disabling trading - I'd hate to not only get VAC banned for this but to also be unable to cash out a then useless inventory.

    • @PorticusPrime
      @PorticusPrime 2 місяці тому

      As far as I know you're fine if you only do demos. If you launch into tf2 using hlae and join a vac protected server (like casual) you will get banned.

    • @shearstf2269
      @shearstf2269 2 місяці тому

      Hi! I didn't cover the command line options for HLAE's custom loader in detail here, but if you enter -insecure as one of the phrases in the command line box (highlighted at 7:32) it will prevent you from joining VAC-secured servers even if you attempt to. As long as you enter it in the first time HLAE will remember it for each successive load! If you're using other 3rd party tools with TF2 you can also put -insecure in the launch options for Steam :)

    • @moonlitlake

    • @Maven_
      @Maven_ 2 місяці тому

      Melies actually has a built in demo scanner. You can look at your demos without having to open the game at all and see every kill you got all game. Once there you can bookmark each kill individually or even bookmark when people sent things in chat. This tutorial is just the basics but there's quite a lot there for people who didn't bookmark ahead of time.

      My 2020 tutorial on HLAE should still apply to the basic process of setting up smooths itself! You'll just have to launch TF2 through HLAE's custom loader directly (with AfxHookSource loaded) rather than through Lawena because of the 64-bit update. I am also hoping to get enough support to be able to create another tutorial for more advanced use of HLAE to help people get the most out of their smooths :)

I discovered today that using HLAE to launch 64 bit TF2 (tf_win64.exe) with 64 bit SparklyFX (xsdk-base64.dll) DOES indeed work just fine. I haven't confirmed compatibility with Melies but I see no reason why it shouldn't work. Pardon my mistake!

If you can play the demo with a normal game load that means the problem is with using the 64-bit versions, and if so I suggest you just go with the 32-bit versions as described in the video, they should work fine.

      ​​​​@@shearstf2269Hey Shears, sorry for the late reply. I was working on fixing the issues mention previously and i fortunately managed to get them to work. Apprarently, I didn't move the actual demos to the tf folder along with the vdm files in order for the game to read the demo. (And yes it worked with tf_64.exe and sparklyfx 64 bit in the HLAE). I still need to pratice around the Melies program when running vdm files, but i dont know if youre able to answer a question of mine here but i will give it a shot: If i want to record a frag but have separate layers from each clip (i.e greenscreen having only the viewmodel, no viewmodel, normal raw clip). Do i make (3) sepereate vdms of the single demo? Does SparklyFX recongized there is multiple vdms for that one single demo and will the demo reset once a vdm is done recording after it ends? (Sorry if i made this question too complex, thats just how im typing it out, thank you).
