How to record a good demo |
View this guide in the language:          
There are some really simple steps that you can undertake in order to get the best possible demo.
Before we start it is important to be aware of that the higher the ping you have the larger the margin of error on the demo is. You should not be recording a demo on a server that lags you or if you are getting much choke/loss.
Second: be aware of how long you are recording. Each minute is approximately 2 megabyte of demo which will be around 500KB zipped. So take demos that are not longer then 5 minutes before recording a new one.
Let's move on.
Step 1
When you have located the player that you would like to demo be sure to get into a position where you can spectate him without him really noticing. If the server allows spectators you can record the demo from spectator-mode. If you either can't spectate the person, or the server doesn't allow spectators, you can "chooseteam" -> select a team, but do not select a skin. This way you will have spectating abilities, but not be forced to spawn each round. If for some reason the above doesn't work, you can type "kill" in console when you spawn.
Note: The latter will alert a vigilant cheater so be aware not to draw to much attention to yourself.
Step 2
Once you have gotten into the spectating position start the demo by bringing down the console and typing "record [demoname]". The demo will appear in the cstrike folder with the [demoname].dem. Be sure to follow the suspect/cheater all the time, do not "flip" between people to show where they are on the map compared to the suspected cheater. Should the cheater die before the round ends pick a random other person to spectate till he dies.
Step 3
After you have started recording you need to verify the ID of the player.. Bring down the console again and type "sb_status" [enter].
Step 4
The final step is simply to type "stop" in console when the 5 minutes of recording has ended, and if you think it is insufficient make a new recording taking the same steps once again.
Once you have recorded the demo(s) and made the sb_status call in console, jump out of the game and browse to the cstrike folder and "zip" (WinZip) or "rar" (WinRAR) them.
Note: By selecting the "maximum/best/slowest" compression method in either WinZip or WinRAR, you can compress the demo(s) more efficiently. This allows demos of greater size to be submitted, and reduces the uploading time.
When done all above correctly the only thing left to do is to submit the .zip/.rar to SteamBans.com.
