Replay System for SC2

Post by 36drew »

I was wondering if maybe one of the techies could make a replay system for SC2. Something that would like a bit like the one AgeSanc currently has for TAD.

It would include things like:
Map
Races
Winner button
Length of Game
Patch
Maybe some other things??

I think this wesbite will see some bigtime action, especially once the clan feature gets added to SC 2. N3O might be growing!

are these things even doable with our n3o forum? i think one would need other type of plug-ins for a forum so this can work out

I'm not sure? It would be cool if they were though! If they can't, is it possible to leach that option of another site or something?

My car is standing at the parking place where it should be because here in Germany we don't have the Lazy Factor.

Replay system:
Such system isn't possible here since Jim has "only" a webhosting package. AS or RS now has a dedicated server for this. The main problem is that the replay is packed (MPQ format) and u have to uncompress it so u get different files and in one file is stored the game info. The second main problem is: U have to heavily hack the forum and maintain this hack if u want to upgrade cms version, which is a bit over the top for a clan site.

What is possible: Making a page for posting replays like i have done for the league. So having dropdown boxes for chossing map and race, upload possibility and box for comment writing.
U can also make it look nicer then the league post by putting images into the post like RS. But that is really all

PS: if u want to have a detailed look at sc2replay files use this
