did you add the file extension at all?

<b>record blah.DEM</b>

Odd that NS shuts down <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

To record demos, it the command should just be
record <demoname>

When you're done, you should type
stop
to stop the demo.

To play it back, you should type
playdemo <demoname>

If you believe you've recorded one, you should have a file called
demoname.dem
located in your NS directory.

Additional note: sometimes when you record or stop a demo when people are actively using the voice comm, NS will crash. That's possibly what's happening to you.

NOOOO!

Do NOT use the .DEM extension when recording a demo. It'll crash!!!1

You got to start it, and end it, when nobody's using the mic.

IE:

record demo1

stop

sorry but I always use the file ending, and I haven't crashed once and mine doesn't even crash when someone's on the voice comm tbh <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
