Logs

CS Demo Manager generates log files to help diagnose issues reported on GitHub.
There are two types of logs:

  • Application — Logs generated by the application.
  • Counter-Strike — Logs generated by the internal Counter-Strike plugin.

For privacy reasons, the application doesn't send data to an observability service.
When reporting an issue, please redact any sensitive information from the log files and attach them to the issue. This will help diagnose the problem and save time.
