Trying to record a clip with gibs from an older STV demo (about 3 years old). Ragdolls work but no gibs (players just disappear). I have gibs on and confirmed they work both in game and in recent demos. Is this a known issue and is there a fix?
I have the following settings:
cl_phys_props_enable 1
cl_phys_props_max 128
props_break_max_pieces -1
r_propsmaxdist 1000
violence_agibs 1
violence_hgibs 1
tf_playergib 1
edit: also checked with someone else, they had the same problem

^example demo that didn't work for either of us. I also assume it's a known problem since some of Beater's videos have the same issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRANPUODpcw

bumping for any potential solutions
experiencing the same issue on POV demos and the only reasonable connection i could find is both demos being against the same team

From what I've seen, it looks like it has to do with old demos. It doesn't occur in newer demos as far as I know, or at least, I haven't experienced in newer demos. When I was working on a frag vid all the clips from S10/S11 worked fine and the ones around S9 and older had the issue. I also ran into this on older POV demos so I figure it's probably more related to the demos being older rather than being STV or POV.
I haven't tried this yet, but it's possible an update broke it and using an older beta version to play the demo might fix it.

LuckyLukeQuick update if anyone is interested, managed to find a solution: select pre_smissmass_2022 beta, start TF2 in offline mode an everything is back to glory! At least for the old demos I'm sifting through.
Haven't tried this myself but might be a fix.
