About this mod Author’s original text
REPO Death Capture
Uses Steam's new Game Recording feature to capture your best deaths.
Requirements
You must manually enable Record in Background in the Steam client.
That's it, you're done.
Recommendations
You should also turn on Record Microphone so that Steam can capture any hillarity that ensues.
Automatic Gain Control may be useful but can produce crackly audio depending on your setup. If you plan to use this to capture clips long term, I recommend jumping into a save solo and testing with AGC on/off.
Configuration
By default, the Steam overlay will open after a death occurs; there is a short delay to facilitate a more natural reaction to whatever caused your demise.
You can disable this behavior in the configuration menu if desired, just remember that if your recording length is low you will need to check and export any clips you wish to keep at some point.
Other Features
Recordings are labelled based on the state of the game:
- Exploring [map name]
- Shopping
- Deathmatch
As Steam adjusts the "Timeline" API I will look into adding more detail.
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
