this might be a sillly question, but in dod? lol, if its in dod, you to to type in console
Code: [Select]
play hacker
hacker is an example of a name, if you do that and it still does not work, you might want to try to clean up dod, as in defragment it. right click on it in steam games, go to props. then local files, then select defrag, then when thats done, verify game cache.

if that doesnt work, try reinstalling your game, and if that doesnt work, try reformatting your computer, and if that doesnt work, your screwed

To recap:

type ~ to go in your console

if your demo is called "hacker" type this in console:    play hacker

but make sure your demo file is located in your DODS folder because otherwise it won't work... like if you save your "hacker" file to your desktop, it won't play. so the location should be:

D:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\(your username)\day of defeat source\dod
