For some reason my DoD wont let me play demos, I get this:

Playing demo from 1.dem.

How recent was this demo taken?

If it was recorded before the engine update this week, then I believe DODS will not be able to play it. There used to be a way to allow playbacks of old demos, but I don't have the details. I just heard that it was possible from competitive league ACs.

I believe pressing shift+f2 will bring up the demo playback tools in the dod game menu, then you should be able to load older demos.

Hmm, well i started the shift F2 thing but i got the same error...even after i JUST record a demo...

After the new update, you can still look at your old demos, but new ones, recorded after the update can't be played in dod:s.

Almost everyone has this issue...

I pulled that off the steam forums
