Replay Is a game record saved in a special format. The World of Tanks client can record matches and replay them. The problem is that to view the replay, you need the version of the client in which it was recorded.
How to watch a replay in WOT
First make sure that replays are being recorded at all.
- Open the settings in the game client
- Go to the section " A game »
- In field " Record battles "Select" Everything " or " Last »
If you select "All", every battle will be recorded. If you specify "Last" - only the last played match will be saved. The file will be named " replay_last_battle ”And will be overwritten when you play the next battle. This is useful if you don't want to waste your disk space with junk replays.
Replays are stored in the folder replays in the root directory of the game (for example, C:/ Games/ World of Tanks/ replays ). To avoid overwriting the replay of the last fight, go to the specified directory and simply rename the file replay _ last _ battle ... After that, the World of Tanks client will no longer touch this replay, and it will safely remain in the folder.
The Replay Manager mod will help you work comfortably with replays.
How to watch a replay recorded in a different version of WOT
If the replay was recorded in the old version of World of Tanks, then a warning will be displayed when you try to play it.
The fact is that for correct playback of replays, the World of Tanks client must be of the appropriate version. Therefore, the first step is to find out which version of the game you need.
Where can I get the client of the required version?
- We go to this topic on the official forum. There you will find all versions of World of Tanks, starting in 2012 (or you can immediately download mail.ru from the cloud). They are designed as a table for convenience.
- We select the version of the client that is closest to the desired one. Download, install.
- Then we consistently download and install patches in order to upgrade or downgrade the version of the game to the required one.
- After that you will be able to watch old World of Tanks replays.
The first way is to simply drag and drop the replay file onto worldoftanks.exe , the second is to use the WoT Selector application if you plan to watch replays a lot and often. The author lucidly talks about all other nuances in the forum thread, the link to which is given above.
How to watch World of Tanks replays without a client
It is also possible to watch replays without a WOT client, but in a purely schematic form on the map. This is done using the WotDossier program. It does not require Internet access and can play replays without graphics. Rating: 5 - 6 votes
Today, one of the most popular multiplayer games is World of Tanks. It is played by thousands of players from all over the world, and tournaments and competitions are constantly held.
But to be truly successful in this game, you need to play a lot and constantly train. In the battle itself, your account color (efficiency) will inform you about your skill.
But most clearly your superiority on the battlefield can only be shown by true evidence.
Replay world
Professional players, as well as amateurs, try to expose their skills through video. Such recordings are called replays by tankers. As they say, it is better to see once than hear 100 times. This phrase clearly demonstrates the meaning of replays.
Not only professionals and bloggers can showcase their videos. Anyone can do it. You just need to put a tick in the settings menu in the game client to record the battle and that's it.
All videos weigh very little, since it is not pictures that are recorded, but the behavior of the tank
So, you can store up to 1000 replays on 1 GB of memory. But to make it easier to manage your recordings, a special program for viewing World of Tanks replays was created for this.
With it, you can view your best fights yourself, understand your mistakes and work on fixing them. And if you have no mistakes?
And you can safely call yourself a "nagibator", then you should definitely share such records with your friends. As they say, it's best to share your experience with others. Maybe this way you will gather your powerful clan, which you will lead, and everyone will use your tactics. Who knows?
In addition to these soul-pleasing things, it is easier to take screenshots when viewing recordings. And all players know that sometimes there are very epic moments during a battle.
But one of the most important things that replays can do is to prove to the administration that there is a bug in the game or inappropriate behavior of players from allied or hostile teams.
But basically the World of Tanks replay viewer performs the following functions:
Displays a list of all replays in a human readable form;
various filters are used to find the required replay;
shows the results of the battle in a form familiar to everyone;
allows you to upload replays to sites directly from the client.
Play, make and share your replays. And also view other people's records. This is the only way to raise your skill to the highest level.
Many tankers who conduct successful battles like to record their results in "replays" (in Russian "replay"). This is a special video, usually on the game engine, that allows you to see the current result of your battle.
Such a replay can also be recorded in a separate file, so that later you can show your friends about your skills.
Previously, the World of Tanks replay manager was a separate program, it was called WoT Replay Manager, it was created by third-party developers. The main advantage of the program is the convenient organization of replays, which are sorted according to all necessary parameters: nation, tank, class, level. You just had to click on the replay you were interested in, after which the WoT client was launched for playback.
But with the release of version 9.15, the World of Tanks replay manager is already built into the game itself, now it has become much more convenient to watch the battle. To do this, you need to install one of the modpacks, for example, from Jove which includes this manager.
If you have saved a lot of replays, it may take some time
It is convenient to search by the amount of damage, so you can find the battle in which you inflicted the most damage on the enemy. After you have found the replay you need, the game engine provides the opportunity to view the battle from all angles, in accelerated or slow motion. Replays help to account for the mistakes of your battles, but in general, players keep their best moments.
Replay managers have a user-friendly interface that is easy to understand.
In addition, some of them allow you to upload and share with other players on the WoTreplays Internet site without leaving the client with the game, here you can find out the exact date, time, name of the base, the amount of accumulated gold or silver, as well as experience. After you have downloaded the replay, you will receive an Internet link that can be sent to others.
In order to install the replay manager, you need to go to the game folder in the "res-mods-client version" subfolder, copy all the contents from the archive. Moreover, if you have an older manager, you need to delete its ReplaysCache from the game folder.
Now there are a lot of players who record their battles, and then post them to show off. Someone just talks about their favorite tank and about a good battle that has been successful on it, while others are trying to make money on this. And all these players are helped by the Replay Manager mod for World of Tanks 1.0, with which you can now record your battles while in the game client.
Replay Manager Mod for World of Tanks 1.0 has the following functions:
- you can upload your replay to wotreplays.ru directly from your game client,
- various helper functions to help you with the replay you need,
- showing the result of the battle in a standard familiar to everyone,
