Replay issues: Mod data?

I just finished playing a game, and tried to watch the replay. The loading bar went about 10% before it quit and said "The mod data loaded does not match the mod data which was originally used to play this game."

Does anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?

Thanks

I downloaded some games from Sc2rc.com and I can't get them to work. I put them in the replays/ recent folder (can't seem to make a new folder either...) when I go into the game it shows the replay in the list including the info about it but when I go to play it I get an error message - "The game makes reference to invalid or unavailable files." I don't think this is the same issue but has anyone else seen this?

Thanks

The problem with invalid or unavailable files is easy to fix. Play a custom game on the map that is in the replay. After a patch it seems like you need to redownload a lot of maps for some reason, but replays don't download maps.

hmm... I actually already downloaded (manually within b.net) all the maps... so this is interesting... I joined up just before this update. I'll try starting a custom game anyway and see if that helps... thanks for the info!

Was your game from an older patch? Or do you mean the "just finished a game" literally?

The replay I tried to watch in my last post was the one I downloaded, not the quick game replay I just played... we just thought it might be a post-patch map download thing... the replays of my games are working just fine though.

The replay I'm attempting to watch was uploaded to SC2RC.com on April 23, 2010 so I'm going to assume it's pre-patch.

Can anyone try downloading a replay and then seeing if it plays? Am I the only one having this problem here?

Thanks!

I tried to watch the replay immediately after completing the game.

I tried to play a custom game on this map like someone in this thread said even though I knew I had the map because I just finished playing a game on it. It didn't work.

Anybody has a clue?

I can't find any help on battle.net forums either, there's only 1 thread going on about it, with only 2 people in it and nothing helpful :

It's really weird. I can't watch a single replay anymore.

When trying to watch replays from the latest patch I get the "data mod does not match"-message and when trying to load replays from earlier patches sc2 crashes. Annoying.

If anyone hears about a solution please post it.

On a french forum a guy had also this problem, or at least similar to this, and he found a way to fix it. I'm not sure it will work for everyone but it seems it worked for him.

He said the problem for him was the name of it's username folder. It was "Cédric" and he said the problem was the "é". He tried to watch the replay under another admin session called "admin0" and it worked ^^

Now i have no idea if that's the problem for you all but it worked for him so i thought i share the idea. Sorry if it doesn't help.

Yes, some people have reported success with this, but for the majority it seems to not solve anything. I guess it's a differnet problem with the same symptom.

Someone who has a normal username (using only ascii characters, no weird é characters) and has this problem, can you delete your Bnet shader cache from here:
C:\Users\*username*\AppData\Local\Blizzard Entertainment
and see if that fixes the problem?

Given I deleted the correct folder(running XP so it's a slightly differnt path?) which I think I did, I still got the same issue.

Here is how it was solved for me:
http://forums.battle.net/thread.html?topicId=24401614828&sid=5010

It is odd that it's been affecting Australians (and other people with - you would think - English language OS:es) tho, so maybe your problem is different.

i don't have odd characters in my file paths and was still getting the mod data error for replays.

what fixed it for me was adding renamed map files in documents\starcraft 2 beta\maps from *.s2ma to *.sc2map. (map packs floating around seem to have the former)

after doing that, i haven't found a single patch 10+ replay that i couldn't watch.
