quote:Originally posted by Skate4RazorsIt looks interesting, but do you have a shot of the programs looks? Or, does it just go straight to Soldat itself?
Short answer:
It just goes straight to Soldat itself. :)
Long answer:
The program itself exists of 2 things:
1. A registry file which registers Soldat demos (*.sdm) to be opened with the demoplayer batchfile
2. The demoplayer batchfile itself
What happens is, after importing the registry file (you will only need to import this once at 'install'; undo-regfile included as well), you will get a contextual menu (rightmousebutton) when you rightmouseclick a Soldat demo file. When you select to 'Play with cdp' the demo, you actually call the demoplayer batchfile with 2 arguments, being:
cdp.bat sdm C:\Soldat\Demos\gotOwnedInThisOne.sdm
The batchfile just interprets the 2 arguments and runs Soldat.exe like this:
Soldat.exe -demo "gotOwnedInThisOne.sdm" 1
Thats about it.
If you want to 'see the program' you will have to download the zip and open the files with a plain text editor.
Hope this helps,

ps. The intent of this 'player' was to have an extremely lightweight demoplayer for soldat demos;
Increasing the number of optional playmodes (like playing speeds, having interface turned on/off, dumping bmp's) would be extremely easy to do
