Installation and use

• Check the latest release for a direct link to Java install and Lawena archive.
• Extract the .zip to a clean folder
• Run lawena.exe, the updater should run and it will automatically launch the tool
• Your TF2 directory should be auto-detected (you can always change it from the "File" menu in the UI)
• Choose your moviefile directory, where the tool will store everything you record
• Configure it as you like, also you can save settings to a file and edit them later
• Start TF2, Lawena will make a backup of your cfg and custom folder while TF2 is running
• Load a demo and press P to start recording. Please note that you might hear buggy or repeating sounds. This is expected and it won't be corrupted in the resulting audio file so don't worry.
• When you close TF2, your files should be restored (there should be no lwrt folders inside your tf folder)

Adding custom resources

• This version will detect all VPKs and folders inside your tf/custom folder, so just by having your files there you'll have the option to load them when Lawena launches TF2
• You can also use the custom folder of Lawena , where some default VPK were included to show you how it works
• If you select your custom HUD in the custom resources list, you'll have to select "Custom" as your selected HUD option or there could be conflicts
• If you want to add extra skyboxes, put the .vtf files (not the .vmt) inside the skybox folder of Lawena and it will load along the included

Troubleshooting

• If Lawena is not closed properly, running it once should restore all folders. Your files are inside the lwrtcfg and lwrtcustom folders. In general, Lawena tries to restore your files: (a) when it's starting, (b) when it's closing, (c) before it starts TF2 and, (d) when TF2 finishes running.
• If files can't be replaced (you get a failure message) it's in almost every case caused by a process preventing key folders from being moved/deleted, so to avoid deleting or mixing your files, Lawena aborts the operation. Please try the following in order until it's fixed:

1. Close any opened folder in Windows that's related to TF2 folder (tf/cfg, tf/custom, and subfolders)
2. Close any program that could be interfering with TF2 folder
3. Log off and re-log to Windows (alternatively: Try killing and restarting explorer.exe from the Task Manager)
4. Restart your PC
5. Tell me about it in GitHub issues/Steam
