Yeah, classical prob. Sometimes the rep can have some sort of minor corruption, claiming that the file name is too long. In that case you can simply shorten the file name to make it work.

I have a replay problem as well:

how do i know which version the replay is so i can start brodwar with the correct starcraft.exe?

e.g. i have old 1.09 replays so i need to start the 1.09 starcraft.exe to watch them. but where do i see the version the replay is made with?

thx

your reps should be in starcraft\maps\replays
(thats the replay folder inside maps inside your starcraft directory)

Go find your Starcraft folder. If you installed it without changing the path it should be something like C:\Program Files\Starcraft. In there you should find a folder called Maps, and in there again you should find or you can make a new folder called replays. Put all your rep files there. When you wanna see them. Launch Starcraft and make a game like you normaly would, but instead of selecting a map, select a rep file from the Replays folder.

Unless iv been to long gone, thats how you do it

C:/Program Files/StarCraft/Maps/Downloads is the correct folder to put downloaded replays in.

If you put them into the StarCraft/Maps/Replays folder they will not work.

make sure to click "starcraft.exe" when you want to view the replays because otherwise you won't be able to

Now, i know this is a old thread... But I played this guy twice, PvT. I wanted to save replays to see how I went wrong. However, both the times, when i clicked "save replay" at the statistics page, my starcraft: broodwar game just freezes. When i tired to load the replay, it doesnt work either. This happend both times playing with him. Does anybody know why?

He hacks. That is why reps freeze when you try to save them, so you can't look at them. It's a well known fact.

He might've had too high apm or actions. If you hold ctrl plus number and get very high actions in a short amount of time it might freeze rep saving screen. it has happened to me - by this i mean getting 1000 apm in 1 minute by holding those keys. or maybe he hacked -.-

I have never heard that about high apm before, but i seriously doubt it was freezing for that reason unless he purposly does that in all his matches.

Replay corruption which is detectable by penguin plug. Basically sometimes too many actions can happen in a moment, for example the exploding cc mineral hack or if someone does too many actions at the very start of the game where it lags for a tiny bit.
