replay section

movie time

so i was looking at one or two of my replays the other night to watch the ai opponent and i thought it would be a great idea to have a replay section on the site. a central place where we could upload our replays and comment on them. the first time i beat a hard AI with locked teams and 8 players, i was pretty proud, i lost my teamate and was facing a healthy 2 two person team by myself. anywho, just a thought, we could also have little contests for various things like shortest winning game, longest running game, and stuff like that.

comments or suggestions? i hope there isnt already a section for these already...

oh i never noticed that, only went there once to get the CE download stuff. i still think ironclad and stardock should have stupid little contests for various movie criteria. 2 more questions tho.

when watching my own replay this afternoon, it started in the middle of the fight, where i had almost locked down one whole star system. why didnt it start in the beginning? are the replays saved in chunks?

and where are the replays saved?

If you resume from a save, the replay for that segment will begin at the point of load. So saving and reloading will result in your reply being divided into multiple files.

Replays are stored in the game's folder in the following location--there are four subfolders there for different types of replays (single, multi, auto, manual).

Vista:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\

XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\

Please note these directories may be Hidden by default. To unhide them, go to your Control Panel -> Folder Options -> View and set yourself to view hidden files and folders.
