Press ~
then add this:

$doRecordDemo=true;


press enter and then ~
then enter a level and it records everything until you:

1) Exit a level
2) Finish a level
3*) Go out of bounds

Let's start with the 3*, since it's a bug in fact:
When you go out of bounds, your reaction is to press the mouse and start again automatically. In recordings, it shows the marble falling and then it starts automatically again. Why's it a bug: because in the recordings it doesn't show that the player restarted. So the recording pretty much screwed everything.

Exit a level:
When you exit a level, the recording would suddenly stop (marble no longer moves), but won't go back to menu. you are to press Esc.

Finish a level:
When a player finished a level, the recording would continue for a few more seconds and then exit to main menu. Therefore, if you press 'Replay' even if you're still recording, it won't show the 'replay', but exit to main menu.

Hope this helps.

He's talking about MBU I think. What Matan said is for MBG.

Both. How do you make it so that it records it from the screen both MBG and MBU? Instead of recording from MBG. To make a demo. I want to make it as Gameplay footage.

Well, if you're literally wanting to record what is happening on your screen, use a video capture program. I don't know which ones are available, but google around and you'll find something like that.

If you want to record a demo in MBG (which is a game-based thing, not a video), use the instructions Matan wrote.
