- Clone repo:
git clone https://github.com/mWalrus/reps
Add this to your launch commands for any game:
/path/to/reps/reps.sh %command%
Replays are saved to $HOME/Replays
Before the game launches:
- Bind Alt+R to save replays
- Bind Alt+K to kill the screen recorder
- Kill any previous instances of
gpu-screen-recorder - Run the
gpu-screen-recorder(check the script for details and options)
After the game exits:
- Kill the
gpu-screen-recorderinstance
Since this uses xbindkeys and xrandr, this little script will only work on systems
running the X window server and therefore will not be executed under any other window
server such as wayland.
BUT, gpu-screen-recorder will work under wayland so you can still use that on there.
You can use the flags used in the script as reference.
If you want to contribute a wayland version of this script you can submit a pull request to the 'wayland' branch :)
