Download CS1.6 Demos of League Matches

Counter Strike demos are the files of the format .dem, which are recorded while playing the game in Dedicated Servers or the Personal Console. These demos let the players see how they played in the game or even for others to see how the player has played.

These demos can be recorded in the game by command record "filename". This saves the demos as filename.dem in the game directory. That is cstrike or czero. This and can be viewed later by the command, playdemo, viewdemo "filename". These demos can be seen through many view points if it is recorded in HLTV or if it is recorded in normal Personal Console, these demos just show the view of the current user.

There are lot of sites hosting these demo files of CS1.6. Further more, these downloads are free to download. These files can be dowloaded and played in the game or skplayer. The skplayer can be downloaded for free from the internet.

The Sites Hosting CS1.6 Demo Files,

These hosts provide a great coverage of demos of manyleague matches held in the years. These demos are all the Multi-Point View demos, like the ones recorded in the HLTV. This enables you to see the game of your favourite player. So, you can view the game from the angle you like. The better part in HLTV.org is that, the demos section gives compete information of the teams played and other demo file info. Also, you can browse based on the map and team.

All that you need to do is just download the Demo files of CS1.6 from these websites. Extract the files if it is a package. The package can be opened by winrar even if it is tarball gz2 forms. These files, .dem files, must be placed in the cstrike directory of you CS1.6 installation. Just open the game Counter Strike 1.6 and give this command in the console,

  • viewdemo "filename of demo file"

This file name may appear too big, so it is better to rename these files once they are extracted to a shorter fielname. The filename does not affect the demo in any form. The usage of viewdemo command is better over other commands because, the viewdemo command also shows up a Demo Player when the demo starts. The Speed of the Demo Playback and other options can be controlled with this Demo Player. The other commands does not show out this Demo Player.

Also, the demos can be downloaded from many other sites which include websites fnatic, sk-gaming etc.

Post Tip:

The download of any kind of resource can be found in some files hosted in websites through google search with the usage of keywords like,

  • index of cstrike/maps for maps
  • index of cstrike/ .dem for demos
