3:10 pm (PST) by masterdescent | Kevin updates Dev Notes | Mr. Kevin Bentley(Senior Programmer) has update his developer notes. Here's a tidbit.
First off, there is a new command line parameter for limiting the framerate. In the previous demo you specified the time you wanted each frame to take in milliseconds, using the "-limitframe" option. People found that confusing, so I added a new one called "-framecap " where is the maximum framerate you would like to have.
Also, if you record a demo at a fixed framerate, you can have D3 play it back and automatically take a screenshot of each frame. All you do is use the command line parameter "-makemovie", then choose a demo and play it back. It will take a long time to create a tga of every frame, so be patient and have lots of space free on your hard drive. I did a little test and made a small animated gif file which was pretty cool.
I just posted almost all of it. Whoops did I do that? :o
