Taking a Demo



This applies to all the source games supported by eGO:

Enter in spectate mode, spectate the suspect and open the console in game(press the "~" button on the keyboard). In console type record "suspects name"(you do not need to use the quotation marks). Once you finish spectating the suspect and end the demo, enable the console again and type stop.

Open console(~) -> type record "suspects name" -> spectate the player -> type stop(to end the recording when done)

Retrieving the demo
Go to: Program Files (x86)-> Steam -> steamapps -> common

Select the game you recorded the demo and the respective folder:
Counter Strike: Source -> cstrike
Counter Strike: Global Offensive -> csgo
Day of Defeat: Source -> dod
Garry's Mod -> gmod
Team Fortress 2 -> tf2

And you'll find the demos. They are the .dem files

Good guide on basic demo info. You should expand the viewing section. You get better at spotting hackers in game if you view the demos with the advanced options on.

For viewing demos you can add some of the advanced commands to see if someone is actually hacking, wire frame, impacts, models. My old guide has bad links for images, but you can take the commands info.
