I haven't tested this out but surely you can open any map in the map editor (such as lost temple), go to player options, change one of the players to AI and test the map.

That Ai is very easy, the community versions will make you fight for the victory.

The problem only seems to be with patch 15 replays for some reason, patch 14 and earlier is fine and patch 16 will also start to load but sc2 then crashes.

When I open the executable installation file, this pops up. After I click on it, the program closes -.-'

When I load replays it says unable to load map"

Could someone tell me how to download the map files through bigfoot, or where they are stored?

In my Libraries/Documents/Starcraft 2 Beta / Maps folder there is a "Cache" directory but no files in the "Maps" folder.

Thanks so much!

Threads of this nature have been locked in the past and possibly users banned iirc. Just a heads up to those who don't know the rules (I see most of the people here have a low post count).

You mean that there is discussion in using 3rd party programs? I dont condem any piracy or cracking stuff, so please dont ban me or something like that. I just wanted to know a way to watch replays. I was in the beta from the beginning and already pre-ordered the sc2, and own copy of bw and other blizzard games, so I dont intend in pirating this game.

I assume that many casters like day9 or husky would also like to know how you can make replays work again. If they already got them to work then I hope they could share their knowledge.

I really would like to know a program that would offer this functionality, with an easy to follow guide, and also a good amount of feedback to say it didn't corrupt their SC2. I've had to go through the entire re-downloading and re-patching process due to one of these programs buttons corrupting my SC2 program and REALLY don't want to go through that again -_-

dl a program here:
http://bigfoot.178.com/download.php?sc2_wt

there are three main button:
first: to play custom game vs AI(powerful & strategy)
second: normal mode
third: to watch replays

not a real cracked program,
but widely used in china, especially for the NO-Key players

HF


update:
I understand u won`t trust a stranger
but u know what: this is a program made by 178.com
178.com is a famous site in china, whose WOW branch is the only one Blz authorized fan site in china.
This program is called Bigfoot SC2, which is an assistant of SC2.
Bigfoot for WOW(provide Addons/UI) has at least 5 million users in china, and is recommanded by the WOW CN official team.
178.com held a SC2 tournament these days(coorprate with GosuGamers), ZpuX,Haypro,Strelok,TLO,White-Ra and Nazgul were in the EU team.
http://sc2.178.com/201006/69899926582.html

I wanna share this way to u guys ,only coz we all love SC2
HF &GL

This worked great for me, thanks.

failed. doesn't work. dragging it on starcraft ii.exe just tries to download patch 16. and dragging it on sc2switcher.exe (in \support\) tries to load replay but crashes it
+ Show Spoiler +
BigFoot, lazylaunch, and other launchers all seem to fail at loading any replays made during patches 15 and 16. if you want to do this, read below :

The workaround that I'm in the middle of doing now but am confident it will work is simple: Install another copy of SC2, let it patch one by one, all the way up to patch 15 (the title bar of the patcher will read: Starcraft II v0.17.0.15623 Let it finish patching 15623 then close it before it patches the next one)

then you should just be able to drag and drop replays onto starcraft II.exe

WARNING:
you will want to rename (to backup) your "\UserName\Documents\StarCraft II Beta\" folder that contains all your replays/screenshots/etc. And also for the map folder, though you probably dont need to but I did anyways to be safe, backup your "C:\ProgramData\Blizzard Entertainment\StarCraft II Beta" folder.

Please come back and let me (us) know if it worked. I better don't start this at midnight for nothing
