it surprises me that this hasn't come to anyone's attention yet. Replays aren't autosaved to your computer's recent replays folder anymore. instead, they are saved to the server, only the last 10 games played/observed, and you decide from there whether to keep your replays or not. I've been in a ton of games today so far, and went to my recent and only 10 show up.
Also if you look at the new "keep" button, it says they get deleted to make room for new replays.
I for one hate this, I want my replays back, I liked having every single game saved to my computer so I can look back on them whenever.
edit: you can get more of your last 25 or so replays by following what ourson did:

Yes, definitely... Give the user the option I guess. I have so much hard-drive space I don't care at all that my replays are all being saved.

Wow, so you manually have to save replays to your computer? How in the world did they think that was a good idea? Their just wasting space on their servers while making things more difficult for us.
|
Yeah, they automatically delete themselves when you don't use them... Now I always save them shit.

oh wow, nice find.
apparently only 25 are saved there though, because only my last 25 games are saved there.
anyone else confirm/deny?
|
i only saw a replay to get the achievement :p
|
24 for me but I saved one already so 25 I guess,
|
Can confirm it saves the last 25 there as I only have 25 as well. Damn have I already played that many games..? xD
|
I'm having trouble watching some reps i downloaded from roach reps even though they say july 8th o_O
does anyone have fix?
|
Why in the world isn't this a setting in the Options Menu??
|
yup, i noticed this yesterday, very stupid imo
|
I don't think its a bad idea for 90% of people who don't care too much about every replay. In most games, if you want extra information stored on your computer you have to specify that. This is just preventing the thousands of games people will play from automatically filling up your harddrive. Also consider that 99% of people will only use replays to watch the game once. For tournament games or pro games, they will just have to hit save and name it (so it kinda saves them from renaming it later.)
|
The best part about this is you can finnally rename the replays when you save them
|
i guess they're really clutching for straws with bnet improvements now, saving replays on bnet, its like they're trying to say LOOK BNET IS AWESOME IT KEEPS YOUR REPLAYS, but they just made it worse and broke a perfectly good system.
|
auto replay save should be an option you can turn on or off, and it should be on by default. Replays are so small no one is going to care if they accidentally have a few hundred of them saved on their comp.

Replays take up maybe 100kb at most. I don't think it would be too hard of a thing to implement an option to turn on autosave...

at 50kb/replay ... yuo can get ~20/meg ... that's 5,000 replays per 100GB, at 20mins/replay that's 1,667 hours of starcraft or .2years of playime.
The more you know! (not sure of the exact time/size ratio ... but close enough)

Its not a big deal to me, 10 replays is plenty to decide if you want to save it or not. Personally i only got 230gb on my computer (its a laptop). I dont want to have to through and delete replays, id rather have it be somehwere between 10-100
|
I think it's the right move, as the default. Most people will not ever look at their replays, or not very often, and having them grow unfettered isn't a very good option. I just wish there was a config file option somewhere to disable this (UI isn't feasible either, because if there's a knob, people will turn it).

An average replay seems to be about 150kb or so. Lets be pessimistic and say 200kb per replay.
Then 5000 replays would be 0,2mb * 5000 = 1GB. A PC that is able to run sc2 should have more than enough space so that replay files like that don't matter. Unless you are using a small SSD, but they could make an option to disable it.

Having all the replays saved gets a little bit unwieldy.
Phase 1 I had about 700 replays in one folder, and it was impossible to find a certain game i wanted to view.
Now, if a replay is noteworthy of saving, I'll save it. I really don't want every game in my replay folder, since so few are actually good enough to warrant a view.
The change doesn't bother me at all.

90% of people wont play thousands of games. 90% of people will play tens-hundreds, which is not an issue.

Use replay management software like sc gears.

Anyone else having problems downloading and playing replays from Phase 1?
Theres some games I want to watch, however it says I cannot load them, Im guessing its because of phase 2.

I am not sure what you are talking about. 100 gigabytes worth of 50 kb replays is over 2 million replays.
100 gigabytes / 50 kilobytes
Which, judging by your time estimate is just shy of 80 years.
100 gigabytes / 50 kilobytes * 20 minutes

I have no problem with Blizzard keeping my stuff organized, but if there was some parameter that controls this and could be found...that wouldn't be a bad thing either.
It's just, I don't save every replay, just ones where I don't quite understand the loss, brag-worthy ones (rare), potential hacking, and when I feel I need to just evaluate my play a little more. And usually when those happen, it's either I watch it and save them when they happen, or I'll save them for later almost immediately. I don't like having a huge, hard to read list of replays.
|
I Think someone should post a thread on the blizzard suggestion forum to add more relevant info the the replay file names maybe?
Something like Date/Opponents/Game Length/Match up would be nice.
Can't browse the Blizzard forum from Work, did Anyone ever consider that? It'd make long ass names, but at least we'd know a bit better what it is.
Besides that, there should definitely be an option to save more than 25 replays...

Average replay size for me seems to be under 50kb, most of my games have lasted under 20 minutes.

I shouldn't be forced to use a 3rd party program so I don't get swamped with replays because b.net auto-saves every 5 minute replay.
No thank you.
|
This is a good default, but needs to be optional.
|
They will most likely make an autosave replay option like they did with WC3. WC3 doesn't autosave replays either by default.
|
I personally don't like the location of these new replays...it's a lot deeper in the folder...and too much work 
Hopefully when the game comes out, all this folder nonsense will be cleaned up. This game has been changed a crapload since beta first came out...
|
I wish all the replays would be saved because while I rarely watch a specific replay, I need the replays to mine for statistics. For example, only after using the matchup analyzer did I realize that I really need to practice steppes of war (40% win rate) vs all other maps (60% win rate). Also I realized that i need to work on ZvT as that is my weakest MU.

I don't know if I understand your point. By your description, in both scenarios the replay folder is useless. To derive use from it you would have to manually rename and file replays according to some criteria. Its just that in the old configuration you had the option of seeing every game you ever played and the only downside was a few less megabytes of free space on your drive. I think it's worth it.
You should try sc gears. It is targeted towards pro players. Blizzard wouldn't spend so much effort on a product for so little people. The killer feature is an AMP vs time chart.
|
I want autosave too, at least as an option. And while we're at it, I want the replays to be stored in the SC2 folder, not somewhere on my system drive where they don't belong.

You can relocate your documents folder to another drive. It's a bit of work but should be worth it. Most of the autosaves of modern commercial programs go into the default folders, so if you move them off your system drive you are seperating all that save data from your system drive at once.
I don't know anymore how to do it exactly, you'll have to google it if you're interested. A simple cut and paste won't do.

I would like to see an option to save all replays. It's retarded that they just removed that functionality, with absolutely no warning, and did absolutely nothing in giving the option of having this particular function.
|
christ, I loved the fact that you could have all your games. This change is fucking stupid.
|
wtf... cmon these replays are like 0kb /care if It saves a million.

they could give us the option of doing one or the other, what the hell is this BS?

I don't see where the confusion is.
In the new scheme, a player saves replays based on some kind of criteria they establish. This might mean saving 10-15% of the games played / observed. This makes finding a certain replay easier, since instead of 1000 replays, you're sifting through 100.
In the old way, a player has ALL their replays saved, even UMS games, games that lasted 2 seconds, etc...
In the latter case, the replays become hard to manage. There is literally 1000+ replays to scroll through, and it is more difficult to find something in particular, this is the downside.
I wouldn't mind an auto-save option, but I would definitely turn it off. There should just be a save replay option in the score screen (I think this was there in patch 15?).
I've tried SC2 gears out. I found the interface to be pretty clunky. I'll wait until it gets refined.

If each replay is 50 KB then 100 GB would equal 2,097,152 replays.
Which is, you know, a lot of replays.

I've 2200 reps from beta on comp, they take 252 MB total. It'd be surprising if I managed to mass games even to match 1 GB of space, ever? I couldn't think of better use for 1GB of stuff than SC2 reps, even if I unlikely ever checked them. It's a catalog of what you've done in a game, game history. I for one appreciate the ability to look up a game from any given time.
There's really no sense to not have at least option to autosave all reps. It should be automatical, because more people will be sad to notice they could've had their first games up for viewing, than those who'll be happy for not having to use 5secs to remove 90% of them at any point. It's not even close, autosave as option should 100% of people agree on, autosave as default option should 50%+ agree on.
|
i would like it best if i got prompted after every game: Save replay? Y/N
|
You can still save them manually, both at the end of the match and later in the replays section; maybe 25 is not an ideal number, but we'll have to be used to as soon as a game worth rewatching finishes to save the replay, just make it automatically, like when making probes.
|
i keep forgetting to save them at score screen 
so not used to this

I'm having problems just viewing replays.. did they change the spot to put them in to view?
I'm using Vista 64 and dumping them in Documents\Starcraft II Beta\Replays\Multiplayer just like I did in phase 1 and they aren't showing up in-game.
edit: Figured it out.. i'm dumb. You have to 'keep' a replay before it will create a Multiplayer folder at the new location listed on page 1. Then you just dump in that one.
|
there have been many times where i go back and im like "oh crap, i encountered this situation like 3 weeks ago and I want to see what I did to win" or "i did this to another guy 3 weeks ago and how did he beat me" and i pull up an old replay i didnt save initially.
usually i only save things i really want. but at the same time, there is a LOT to gain by having all replays saved
|
You guys, seriously this isn't a question of you not being able to have your replays.
THIS IS blizzard's first attempt at limiting the user generated comment that you created, but THEY OWN. I'm sure it will make it easier for them to figure out who is pirating user generated content from the servers and turning it into videos on youtube without their consent.
I could be wrong, but I bet my starcraft 2 game that this was implemented because these are replays blizzard owns, not the user.
|
If you look at the new replays folder there is a sub-folder called Multiplayer and one called Unsaved (at least that is what I have atm). This system isn't that different to the one many other games have had I think. If you don't specifically save a game at the end of the match it stays in your Unsaved folder. If you do save it then it goes in your Mutliplayer folder or where ever you choose to put it since I'm pretty sure you can use sub-folders to organise your games. The limit of 25 should only apply to games you don't specifically save yourself and you can go back and save them later if you want. In Age of Empires III and Age of Mythology the system was pretty much the same but the limit for unsaved games was only 10.
|
I liked the old system that saved all your replays. The only problem was the naming process was poorly done. Something simple to say the date, the format (1v1, 2v2, ffa), and the race matchup (zvz, ztvpt, etc) would be nice.
|
Blizzard continues to amaze me with the changes they implement like this. I for one would like my replays. Auto-save didn't fill up my hard-drive in 2001, now that I have about 10 times the memory I'm pretty sure I can find the room for them
|
My phase 1 recent replays folder had just over 700 games and was around 70mb. They are small but it adds up fast, considering that I was working full time and have my playtime limited by my wife (lol) I can see this folder getting very big for some people very fast. (Especially if they play mainly 2v2 or FFA which have much much larger file sizes than 1v1 by comparison).
I don't think the average gamer would want every game they ever played saved, so I don't mind the system only keeping around 25 at a time (tho I would make it last 100 personally) but an option would be nice.
For the rest of us I can guarantee that a program will pop up shortly which auto copy-pastes replays out of your recent folder to another location. We already had programs which auto-rename the replays for us. There will no doubt be one which both renames and moves replays to a safe folder as they appear.
|
I doubt a bunch of replays will fill someone's hard drive up or even take up significant space considering the crappiest of computers come with at least 500 GBs.
Edit: Wow a whole 70 MB? That's a lot of floppies!
|
They need to give us the option to autosave all our replays again, even if we have to hand edit some text config file. These days 1000+ gigabyte drives are common, so it's not like we'll run out of space even after years of games.

yup, they def. should have added an option to cancel / enable it. automatically saving replays was one of my favorite features of the game, every now and then i would just look at random games to see how i won / loss, but now i cant do that anymore, unless i save everysingle one.
which i dont exactly feel like doing after raging when i lose ;p

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.

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

"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
"C:\Program Files\StarCraft II\StarCraft II.exe" Enjoy and don't forget to enter in your unique account information where it says!

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!

WHERE IS THIS CHECKBOX?!? I WENT THROUGH OPTIONS AND THE GOOGLES DO NOTHING!
User was warned for this post

........lol do you know that there is now an autosave replay feature now or did it take you 9 months to write the script.

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"
|
gameplay? gameplay?!?
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.
|
What the.. seen lots of old thread getting necro'd recently. What is going on with that?
And I thought replays are all saved? Under the Unsaved folder?

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