Yea dont like this change at all. I like to keep my replays, when I had to reinstall sc2 I even made sure to copy my 800 replays over, alas I am too lazy to save after each game. 800 games at about 10 sec save time each is 2 hours of work each 6 months. Someone should write something to autosave all of the replays to a diff folder !

Or Blizzard should just provide an option to Autosave all replays. Don't see why they wouldn't since they were essentially doing that during the first phase of the beta anyway.

Actually, that's the position where they belong.

Edit that being said, if they don't change it soon, I'm pretty sure someone will write a program that autosaves all your reps (like someone did for war3)

Outside of the sc2 folder is better IMO. Noaccidental deletion of the entire install in the midsts of an error that makes you rage and hastily delete the install folder. But yes, option to save reps Plox

Replays you don't save at the end of the game are definitely saved in the 'Unsaved' folder under Replays on your PC so it wouldn't be hard to run a batch file that renamed and moved the files if you wanted to. It is a pain when you forget to save a gg and by the time you realise it has been overwritten though

I can confirm that the "unsaved" replays are not stored on the server-side. Rather in My Documents/Starcraft II Beta/Accounts/<random numbers>/<random numbers>/Replays/Unsaved
Sad news.

Really late to the party, but just downloaded SC2Gears and realized the whole 25 unsaved games problem. Unlike you n00bs, I know such problems can be solved with scripting, so I wrote up a script to automatically copy the unsaved games over every time I start SC2. Thought I'd share:

+ Show Spoiler +
xcopy "%USERPROFILE%\Documents\StarCraft II\Accounts\<CHANGE THIS>\<CHANGE THIS ALSO>\Replays\Unsaved\Multiplayer\*" "%USERPROFILE%\Documents\StarCraft II\Accounts\<CHANGE THIS>\<CHANGE THIS ALSO>\Replays\Multiplayer\Autosave\" /D /y
"C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II\StarCraft II.exe"


Copypasta into Notepad, Save As autoscript.bat (or whatever.bat) in C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II\, and change the location on your SC2 shortcut to point to it instead of StarCraft II.exe. WinXP and older users use this instead:

+ Show Spoiler +
xcopy "%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\StarCraft II\Accounts\<CHANGE THIS>\<CHANGE THIS ALSO>\Replays\Unsaved\Multiplayer\*" "%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\StarCraft II\Accounts\<CHANGE THIS>\<CHANGE THIS ALSO>\Replays\Multiplayer\Autosave\" /D /y

Thanks for bumping this really old thread!

Also, you dont need a script, or a program, or anything to get replays saved - there is a check box in Bnet that auto-saves all replays! Amazing!

Umm... nice rekindle maybe?

Look inside the gameplay options i think. Don't have the game open atm but I am pretty sure it is on the top right of one of the tabs.

EDIT: Go to gameplay, then on the top right it says replays. Check "save all replays", which is above "display replay time"

why do i bother thinking words have meaning anymore? anyway, thanks for your help. and if you're bored, try to find this information via google. writing a script was easier.

Writing a script was easier than clicking a button in the Options menu?
