Blizzard need to hire a guy with a brain and quick ! This program shouldn't be illegal, it's just plain non-sense | ||

Having trouble atmIt's in the OP..... What a great tool, tested the Resume Replay function, and it works almost prefectly. Hotkeys are wiped though. | ||

But there is one potential problem besides the starting positions. SC2 doesnt work excactly determinstic (2 Marines fighting each other) so if even if you recreate all your actions it may well be that the gamestate is another, or am I mistaken? | ||

But then you would not be able to have replays at all if you couldn't replay everything that happened.. | ||

The whole pirating thing is getting really old and just a poor excuse for lazyness/cheapness. Good job, hope this in the least will be a bit of a wake up call for Blizzard(though I doubt it, they seem quite content with bnet 0.2). I think it's more likely that Blizz has their hands tied on the battle.net issues. It just doesn't make sense that they would invest so much time and money into making these public appearances/tournaments and not fix some basic issues with battle.net. I remember reading a while ago that Activision has most of the control when it comes to the online/b.net infrastructure? If that's the case, it would explain why Blizz has yet to implement LAN or a more intuitive b.net even though they are adapting to consumer demand for everything else (maps, tournaments, balance, etc.) | ||

Yeah, right... who cares exactly how much effort it takes? All I know is it doesnt take years for a company of Blizzard's size to fix some relatively small issues that the entire community has been asking for for 2 years. They should be ashamed. | ||

For them to be able to be simulated, they need to be deterministic. | ||

There's a significant risk of being flagged by Warden for this though, since it involves memory injections. I'm sure Blizzard will look into this one way or the other though. Thanks for the post! | ||

So now the joke's on them for waiting with that or just generally not having come up with some not great but functional hotfix for tournaments, and quite deserved. | ||

The only problem I see is with loading old replays, but I guess that is using the program for a different thing than intended | ||

The technology isn't there yet guys. No LAN. No game save/resume. No decent chat interface. No clan interface. No tournaments like the ones we had in wc3 bnet's. Them freaking technologies. | ||
