<div class="IPBDescription">whatb the hell are they</div>i downloaded the files about the nsnc, but whats with the .dem files. whenever i try and open them, it says that a .dll file cant be found. where do i put these files and what make them different from any other video file

*.dem refers to any Half-Life classic demo file, it's basically the extension, or type, used by Half-Life to make a video file.

What you need to do is to put the .dem files into your NS folder, and use the command play demo.dem (where demo/dem is the name of the demo file). It'll then go to load a normal game, but you'll be watching the recorded demo.

awsome, thank you

btw, what will happen when i open it. will it play the match and i spectate or...

Use viewdemo for playback and slow/fast motion capabilities. Once you start the demo, if it's taken from a spectator, it will be in the view of the spectator. If it's from a HLTV, you can control your point of view.
