looking for some love from our collonial cousins across the pond here

I can't seem to load any replays either.
Maybe its on purpose. So maybe you avoid Download. All I know is that mine aren't working.

I can't watch any replays at all by dragging the file onto the starcraft2 exe. It just crashes. I can watch current patch version replays if I load up the game and view them online.

well, for me the dragndrop way, replay file on starcraft.exe, used to crash since patch 13/14 or so.
progress bar goes full than 20 seconds nothing and crash to desktop with that send bug report window. in official forums they stated the hotfix would fix a crash problem. it's definately not something intentional to ruin our beta downtime replay experience i guess because as i said ... it's not working for me since patch 14

Some of my older replays work (dated 5/27) but all patch 15/16 replays just crash when I try loading them directly from Windows.

I made a backup copy of both my replays and the sc2 folder just to be safe. They have said map editing (which should include map testing) will work and that beta forums will be up during downtime. Replays aren't mentioned and there's this rumour going around so a backup can't hurt.

I guess replays that you make after patching are fine.
The problem seems to be anything that is older. Somehow the version switching is trippin'.

I have not been able to load replays since 15 I believe (offline anyway). Can't after 16 either. As someone else pointed out, I can still load older replays fine with the latest patch.

Unfortunately, when you try to view a replay, even if you do it by dragging and dropping onto the executable, it will patch the game for you.

Double unfortunately, the game does crash when trying to watch replays.

Blizzard did mention that once Phase 2 starts up that old replays from Patch 15 and older will no longer be viewable. So perhaps this is Phase 2 being implemented.

SC2 manager can play any replays. Also, I don't understand why you would logically patch the game when its going to offline today.

Does no one here read official blue posts on the Battle.net forums?

When the second phase of beta begins shortly before the release of the game it will include a new patch. This patch will be removing all previous version folders. Any replays created during the first phase of the beta will no longer be viewable once the next phase begins.

i stopped going on blizzard official forums a while ago, seeing as the moderators on there dont give half as much of a fuck as they do here, there is no trolling on TL and only valid information gets posted, as opposed to things like

GHOSTCRAWLER PROMISED ME A PONY!
(which is an actual blue post)

there is more trolls on blizzard forums than there is under all the bridges in all the world....see what i did there?

That kind of sucks that they aren't even giving us the option to keep the old versions... I have so much space on my HDD that I would love to be able to go through old replays. Oh well... I guess...

This is not.

"When the second phase of beta begins", which is in a month, ala "shortly before release of the game".

this patch was put in there to fix a few of the crashing bugs people have been having, just a last minuet thought.

i highly doubt they would get rid of the ability to watch your replays for a month, just so you couldn't do anything sc2 related.

remember, blizzard isnt stupid. they play this game too.

People around here like to pick and choose the time blizzard is stupid and the times blizzard isn't.

I figure Phase 2 is when beta goes down and is primarily closed off the the public. It could be when it comes back up, but I figure it is when it goes down. "Shortly before release," could refer to right now. It really is subjective.

That being said, replays crash when you try opening them offline even when patch 16 isn't downloaded. So really downloading the patch doesn't make them more or less usable. Replays are broken either way.

That is really sad news for me. I nicley catogerized and saved all my replays from every tournament and laddermatch I played, into different folders for each patch. I was hoping I would be able to watch them even after the game release =/

I think not getting to watch replays is an acceptable loss at the cost of saving like 10 gigabytes of space for old patch data.

And replays from early beta obviously wouldn't be watchable past release anyway. Having players install a bunch of old beta patches just on the off-chance that they might watch replays from beta is sort of stupid.

I'm on the EU server. Just applied patch 16 (by mistake, wishfully logging on to bnet to see if it was still up and it auto applied the patch) and still managed to successfully load the recent Sen vs TLO bo7. Haven't tried earlier patches but at least this one works.

It's awesome. Played hundreds of games the last week or so, so I'd have something to watch while the beta was unavailable. Now I'm forced to do something productive. Lame.

Blizzard said we would be able to watch replays while the server was down (i think) so hopefully they release a patch when the servers finally go down which will hopefully fix this

Until this is confirmed fixed, I am holding off on patching. Yeah sure I want to get online and play however long we have left, but when I think about looking ahead at 3+ weeks of not being able to watch patch 15 replays (of which I have a lot)... I change my mind.

Well I can't watch replays with patch 15 either, since the drag-and-drop doesn't work for me.

So I have no idea how to watch replays. I was hoping to do commentaries daily when the beta was down.

When you download Patch 16, it gives you Patch 15's patch notes.
My replays have been crashing since patch 15.
Not sure if mentioning this is frowned upon, but a googling and a trip to the underside of the internetz will yield a 3rd party method of launching old replays.

I've done significant testing and yes, only patch 14 and 13 work. Ironically, the no minimap bug from patch 13 has been fixed.

Does anybody know of a sc2 downgrader to get back to 15?

It doesn't work for me, the patch 16 support doesn't seem to extend to replays it seems.

only patch15 replays crash the game after loading. custommapreplays do not even load. all other replays recorded before 04.06.2010 work for me.

Because they don't give a damn. If they did, they would test replays before releasing a patch. It is obvious to most people that replays would be a source of SC2 during the downtime. They either crippled replays on purpose or didn't think about the consumers and fans.

/rant

In the end the community will have to come up with a solution in spite of Blizzard, which is sad to see and is becoming more common.

I hope the magical wizards of the community can get patch 15 replays viewable soon

I seriously doubt Blizzard will release a patch while beta is offline so people can watch replays from patch 15.

Why the hell did they do this? Something tells me it was intentional. "we're releasing patch 16 without any notes" who the hell releases a patch the day the game is going offline for a few weeks?

Assuming google translate didn't butcher it completely, it sounds as if he has spent some time figuring out the problems with patch 15 replays and will release version 4.1 of his sc2 manager tomorrow with proper support for them.

Sorry if it's a stupid question, but where do I get a copy of the english SC2M from? I've dowloaded the RAR file linked in several posts across TL and I cant read any of them



Edit: Just to clarify, I can extract the RAR files and launch the program... it's just that I cant read anything due to the asain characters.

Yea thats pretty much the case. From what I can tell, the English client is many updates behind. What I do, and I'm sure many do as well, is just look at people's screenshots of the english client to see which buttons do what.

Yeah, that's what I do. There's really only one button to hit for the replay manager, if that's all you're using. It's the one directly across from the AI button on the main tab, I know there was an SS someone posted the other day but I'm away from my main pc. The 4.0 version fixes patch 15 replays for me btw, only thing that doesn't work is 16.

Wait, so this fixes the patch 15 replays so that they are now watchable? Can anyone confirm this?

On his log he said that 4.1 will play patch 15 and that he is releasing it today.
Anyone knows how to add another AI to this so i can play my AI games with it?

I was watching replays fine the other day by dragging and dropping, as I chose not to patch.

However now it's forcing me to patch.

you can just unplug the cable or block it in the FW.
Can you post a patch15 replay that you where able to play?

Replays.net has v4.1 of sc2 manager available, I guess the creator didn't like the big traffic load from hosting it himself or something: http://news.replays.net/page/20100610/1476924.html

Edit - Patch 15 replays definitely do work with it, yay.

Patch 15 replays are definitely not working. The problem persists. Patch 14 and lower load just fine, but patches 15/16 replays fail to load.

Thanks! I am able to load everything up to and including patch 15 (version 0.17.0.15623). 16 still not functioning but that's no biggie!

I can't even get it to start a singleplayer against AI, all I get is some error. I try to start a game and a few seconds later I get the "send error" blizzard form. Also, I have not been able to get a replay to load, I get some error and/or info boxes but nothing happens :/ can anyone help? (I ran it as admin already)

Patch 15: load Replay, goes to Blizz loading screen for 2 seconds - Box pops up: "unable to load replay"

Patch 16: load Replay, box pops up immediately in Chinese, I get APM charts of the game but no replay.

the only versions that seem to be working for me are 15580 and 15449(with the 4.1 vers of sc2 manager), all the other ones either just crash or wont load

I know this is my first post, but I would also like to verify that SC2Manager 4.1 is allowing me to watch my patch 15 replays.

It's odd that some people clearly are accessing Patch 15 replays (thanks Classysaurus) using the 4.1 manager. I am still only getting "unable to load replay" boxes.

I don't know if it matters, but to provide some further details for anyone wondering, I updated to Patch 16. As a result, I didn't get a chance to try SC2Manager 4.1 on Patch 15. Also, I haven't tried watching any Patch 16 replays, which I suspect wouldn't work.

I'm running the 4.1 client as well and cant seem to load any of the final zotac cup replays which are from jun 6th which is I believe patch 15(could be patch 16 though, not sure o.O). Gonna keep messing around with it and see if I can get it to work. Its not just you bro!

4.1 works for Patch 15 replays but not 16. I get the window with unknown text when trying to launch replays on patch 16.

You can see in the list the ver for the replay, just before you play it .. like 0.17.0.15623 - this means patch 15.
Where can i download final zotac cup replays so i can try them also.
I haven't found a single patch 15 replay that does not work but patch 16 do indeed fail.

I'm having the same issue as some people. I've tried all the versions when making a game and it still wont load! Btw, I'm on 64bit Windows 7, not sure if that has anything to do with it.

i did try it on win7 and XP both 32 bit.
Maybe try to clear your cache? are you sure you have ver 4.1? you have to download it, it will not update itself from ver 4

PS: i posted on his blog for an English ver. He replayed that will release it in 2-3 days!!!!!! wow!!!!!

Can someone explain me what to do with the manager 4.1

Is there a english version which i can understand myself, since there are only `???? boxes visible, because it can´t display the chinese letters/signs.
Or could someone just tell me which tabs/buttons i have to click in order to start a replay ?

I think the links are broken, atleast when I tried them the other day. The zotac site obviously has them, should come up on google.

BigFoot used to work but now, mysteriously, won't load any replays anymore. SCManager 4.1 doesn't work, either (previous versions have never worked for me so far). The game starts but the screen eithers stays black or goes white and nothing happens.

Those screens are actually not incredibly helpful. They don't show the main tab where you select the replay manager/AI etc, although the replay manager screen is shown in one. Here are some better screens from another thread.
