Dedicated server - Record gameplay

[maho]

Hey, I'm running a self-setup dedicated server for some friends to play on, and looking into the possibility of having the server record the entire gameplay (did this on CS Source a few years back), but can't seem to figure out what does the trick on I:S.. Anyone have experience with this?
Was hoping something of the likes of being able to switch between the different players on the server, just as you can follow players when you're dead ingame.

ALSO!

Death-cam... Can't get to enable this, as server says not in ruleset -

I've set bAutoRecordReplaysDedicated=True, but it's shown as bAutoRecordReplaysDedicated=False when server is launched.

Did NWI ever enable this to custom servers at all ?

UE4 replay system is not functioning the same way as Demo system in Source engine. The replays (at least in ISS) are offloaded to cloud storage, hence why the time limit for MM server replays, etc.

Well the command bAutoRecordReplaysDedicated exists in the system, i just can seem to enable it ingame (we only do Checkpoint/Hardcore checkpoint). Is there a ruleset setting i can mess with, to get to enable this?

Source was really easy operating in, no biggie there. If it isnt a possibility, then i understand my hardship finding it! - Guess the only thing to do is record own gameplay then, just not the same though. :(

Maybe it is implemented for community servers, however you are better off not relying on it as it was historically neglected and broken on top of patches breaking compatibility with odlder replays (though this trait is true for any replay system).

Deathcam setting is in game.ini.
[/script/insurgency.insmultiplayermode]
bAllowDeathCamera=True/False

The bAutoRecordReplaysDedicated setting just allows the people that play on the server to view their replays clientside. (It only works when then planets are aligned correctly though)

ALL GAME.INI SETTINGS NEED TO BE CHANGED AND SAVED WHEN THE SERVER IS NOT RUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you change settings while the server runs and restart it, it will revert the file back to what it was before you started to edit.

Arc: Yeah it seems dodgy, I also feel like i´ve searched the interwebs for ages scooping up any info on running a dedicated server which isn´t completely vanilla, the information is however scarce.

Leaper: Thanks for that, I´ve already implemented this in the Game.ini already, however on server startup I get this:
LogGameMode: Display: Ruleset: bAllowDeathCamera = False, even though i have set True in game.ini under [/script/insurgency.insmultiplayermode]
Can i go deeper configuration-wise to get it going?

Did you put "OfficialRules" ruleset in place in your commandline ?

[maho]

No, is that a requirement to do so?

Very weird, my log has nothing about that in it.
Official rules mutator causes problems with community servers, not advised to use.

I don't use it and my death cam works normal but my server is also only checkpoint, maybe other modes has different overrides?

They canceled it, because they don't wanna pay for the servercosts.
It worked totally fine before, but now it's gone. Won't come back, I guess.

And were would be the problem to enable a local storage on own dedicated servers? *kopfschüttel
