Demix
A "demo mixer" that allows you to e.g. move entity information between demos.



Demix

Abstract

Demix is a program used to edit Quake demos (.dem files). It enables you to do some sorts of entity manipulation, especially transferring entities from one demo into another. (Demix is a compound from "demo" and "mixing", you see.) This opens the door to a wide range of possibilities - you can extend the lifetime of entities, produce fake multiplayer demos (i.e. add new actors to existing demos) and other things. See the text file for detailed information and instructions.

Installation

Unzip the download. Put demix.exe wherever it suits you best, and run it from the command-line. That's it.
