A while back, replays were enabled by default. Your most recents games are saved as replays which can be found in the "replay" folder located inside the main WoWs folder (the one that contains the .exe). Replays are pretty small, and older ones are deleted, so don't worry about your harddrive filling up with old replays. To watch a replay, double click on it like you would an application. If Windows can't find an application through which to run the replay, manually select the WoWs .exe in the drop down menu. WoWs can NOT be open. You can NOT watch a replay, and simultaneously have WoWs open. Replays can be renamed (some users have reported that renaming can cause issues, others have no issue), moved around, shared. Once open, the replay will show you pretty much exactly what you saw when you originally played that game. It will replay your camera movements, zoom, bullet tracking, etc. This can be changed, as outlined below. Controls: Control-j: toggles the UI (enabled by default) Mouse 1: Allows you to look wherever you want (not tied to the crosshair) Control-Shift-Backspace: detaches the camera from the ship (only if mouse 1 is already clicked), allowing use of the following commands Arrow keys: control movement on a flat plane Number Pad 7: move down Number pad 9: move up Number pad 8: look up Number pad 5: look down Number pad 4: look left Number pad 6: look right Number pad 1: go in the direction the camera is facing Number pad 3: go in the reverse of where you're facing B: attach camera to ship movement (can be any ship) Shift-B: attach camera to ship movement, and turn (can be any ship) Press these buttons again to detach from the ship End: pause replay Home: resume at normal speed Delete: slow down replay, each press slows down progressively more Insert: speed up replay, same thing Theoretically, "," and "." can skip backward and forward, but they always crash my replays. Scroll wheel zooms in and out (without the binocular effect) ESC brings up the same menu as in battles, press Exit to close out the replay. Pressing ESC when in super slow mo causes the menu to take it's sweet time appearing. The replay needs to be unpaused for the ESC menu to appear. Sometimes you also need to enable the UI (control-J) You can go underwater, it is very cool. Anything that happens to the ship that is the subject of the replay will also happen to the camera even if it is detached. For example, if the ship catches on fire, the replay camera will acquire flame effects. Similarly, if the replay camera is 30km away from the ship, sounds will still be heard as if the ship is right there (reload sounds, gunshots, flooding etc...) in addition to the nearby sounds. If you know of any other replays controls, let me know please!

It's a new year and new strategy. I'm going to archive replays and screenshots and additionally add movie recordings and text notes using the following file struture. I what to know if saving WorldOfWarships.exe file separately, not updated, will allow me to use replay files even after subsequent updates. Are there other files I need to save?

I wanted to review a battle I just completed and received the following error when trying to launch the replay. My client has been updated and I verified I am on version 0.10.10.0 when I click on the gear icon in the port UI. I also closed the client before opening the replay file. Is there a new way to view replays? Edit: Replay file attached in case someone wants to check it. 20211201_124728_PBSB002-Warspite-1941_s03_Labyrinth.wowsreplay

I want to record some replays I have from version 7.4.1 of the game client. I copied my World_of_Warships install directory, renamed it and created a shortcut to the WoWSLauncher.exe file in this copied and renamed directory. When I drop a 7.4.1 replay on this shortcut, the client tries to update to the latest version. I went into the Settings window and unchecked the Enable automatic updating check box. The client continues to try to update whenever it starts. How do I prevent the client from trying to update when I try to run a 7.4.1 replay file? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Passo a passo mastigadinho mostra como fazer para ter suas partidas gravadas com arquivos de Replay do jogo, e como ver depois as partidas que jogou!

After several months of trying to play WoWS replays in getting critical errors because of ModStation mods, you made the last update ignore them and will play any WoWS replay as basic WoWS. The latest update takes no notice of my mods install. It makes a difference now in having to clean my system back to basic WoWS. Now I can see my clan mates WoWS replays with no effort. Again BRAVO!

It was a fun event, for us old timers... We do it for the community, above else.. It was fun to volunteer again for a noble cause... With my 100 gms played I hope I gave the community a good time.. Then it was worth it for me... Intern, while the patch is still alive... A summery with a few replays of my experience as a turkey for the weekend.. Oh, if anyone sees 007_ver_2 ...Advise him I am sorry (after watching the replay he will know why)... Thank you assistants for helping, Thank you WG staff for the organization leadership. 20201128_003944_PGSB506-Prinz-Eithel-Friedrich_52_Britain.wowsreplay 20201129_003818_PJSD025-True-Kamikaze_01_solomon_islands.wowsreplay For those who say we volunteers throw the match... The same can be said about the players who (either on purpose or accidentally) Left a turkey high and dry. GL/HF and thank you for the fun!

For a little bit of comic relief, I ask my follow forum readers the following question with evidence... What was your brown alert moment in a WOWS match??OR what was the best brown alert moment you gave to an opponent? In today's replay, one such event happened ... I would like to share the comedic events with the public. Background on the replay... (spoiler alert). Its a loss I tried at least. I lasted 11 min I took out the Puke of York for the LOLz and grinding out the campaign. Dont get triggered for the abuse of HE.. The "brown" alert happened when the red ship in "Halloween Disguise." Tried hard to outsmart me.. "Tried" was the best way to put it. The file is here. 20201008_211741_PBSB527-Duke-of-York_46_Estuary.wowsreplay Enjoy. BTW Be happy I am not gas lighting on the flat tops... They're still disproportional in DMG dealing (close second, high tier BBs). Que sera sera.. GL/HF

Asking because I have a replay from that version that I would really like to rewatch but I don't have the client to do so.

I am running into a problem in trying to get replays to run. It appears that the screen sticks at the load screen and nothing more. You can hear the should as guns and torpedoes load, alerts, etc. Nothing else happens. A new folder systems that has been done since update 9.6 was introduced. Because of it, you have to find the correct bin file that runs the replay. However, I found out that none of them work. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a solution? On another note I wish WG would delete the older update automatically or label the older update such as 123456_old. It would help in the identification which is the current update.

I am trying to view replays of Clan Battles that I just played tonight (so no version issue). Some work fine, but others leave me stuck at the loading screen that shows the players. I have had this problem for a while (not just today). I can hear the battle going, and if I press the Insert key the game audio will speed up just like a usual replay. Before the match starts, I can click Start Battle but nothing happens. During the match, I can press escape to get a cursor. Maps not working: Land of Fire, Tears of the Desert (naval mission), Crash Zone Alpha (Britain), Sea of Fortune (sea hope) Maps that work: North (NE North), Mountain Range (Ridge), Hotspot (OC Bees To Honey) Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a workaround? I tried disabling mods (most of them, anyway) to no avail.

I got a really good game in the ARP Kirishima today and I wanted to show my friends the replay. When I tried to open the replay file with worldofwarships.exe, an error popped up. It was in the box "WCG init error" and the text read "prepare none failed, error 80ee2001" I've been playing for quite a while now but this is the first time I've ever tried to watch and upload a replay. I don't know what might be causing this and I'd really appreciate any help in resolving this situation.

Last night during clan battles we fought another clan on the Haven Map. During the game, the DM (Cdr_Niki) in A cap lines up on a Henry IV coming around the corner of an island. The replay from his (Cdr_Niki)) computer shows a completely different view from what I saw on the replay on my computer. My computer (mushmouthmorton) replay shows horrendous desync. His replay shows minimal desync. Attached are the two replays. Which one is right? If we cannot trust what we are seeing on our screens, how are we supposed to play this game? There is no way to play a competitive event like Clan Wars when you are at the mercy of a random event that completely nullifies how well you play your ship. Please review these files and see if you can supply and answer. @hapa_fodder 20200606_215810_PASC020-Des-Moines-1948_50_Gold_harbor.wowsreplay 20200606_190027_PASC020-Des-Moines-1948_50_Gold_harbor.wowsreplay

Hi, I just had a battle in which another member of my team just saved the entire day. I have a replay file from my perspective, how can I watch the entire battle from the other players point of view?

To my knowledge replay files are still buggy and WOWs hasn't done much for game replays since the beginning. You still have to access them through external files and there are still no in game tools to manipulate replay files that i'm aware of. Also replays are limited to the player's perspective during the battle replay. I think we would all like and benefit from an in game replay browser with many viewing options such as first person, free camera, shot follow, fast forward, rewind etc. One interesting idea I have for a replay mode would be a top down map of the battlefield where you can track every single ship (friend or foe), every shot fired, every torpedo spread, every salvo damage etc. This way you could replay a match and study global match strategies and figure out what went right or wrong rather than just focussing on the player's perspective. Thoughts?

Hey all, I wanted to ask y'all how I watch my post-battle replays. I just had a pretty exciting game in my Großer Kurfurst and I wanted to save, watch, and possibly share it. Any assistance on this would be very helpful because there isn't much that I could find in the way of currently posted YouTube videos relating to the current or close-to current game clients.

I occasionally upload a good replay to https://replayswows.com/. Without necessarily submitting them for competition, I've noticed some of my uploads get converted into a video on YouTube hosted on the WOWS Replay Channel. However, when I watch the video from YouTube, I notice the videos are marked as "Unlisted". So, the videos are there but hidden so no one perusing the Channel will see it as available content to watch. So, what does it mean that a member of the WG staff converted my replay file to a replay video but left it unlisted so the public can't see it unless they happen to find it via the replaywows.com website?

Recently I've been saving my replays so I can re-watch them and watch what I did right/wrong. Only problem is that whenever I try to open them, I get a window titled "WGC init error" and in it it reads "prepare none failed, error 80ee2001". I have already made it so that the file opens with WorldOfWarships.exe. I've even scoured all of google and the only post I could find even mentioning this issue was on the Russian wows forum that only had 2 responses and the translations were awful. My brain hurt.

I just had a monster game in the New French tier 10 bb and when I tried to load the replay file it kept giving me an error that said vivoxsdk.dll was not found I have tried checking and repairing the game and that hasn't worked I have also restarted my PC and nothing has worked I just want to save this replay it was sooo awesome. plz help!

i was wondering if theres a way i can get the 7.12 version of an application so i can play the replay of my epic solo warrior in my 81 knot shima? if not, is there a command that allows me to play that said replay? it was made a day before the 8.0 update, sadly ty for the info, btw : heres the screenshots, btw

So WG seems to have broken the replays in one of their recent patches (0.8.1 or 0.8.2). I can no longer watch any replay files. I'm hoping that they will fix this in the near future, but given the lack of attention that WG has historically given to the replay system, I'm not holding my breath. Given this, I tried uploading a couple of good replays to ReplaysWows.com. It seems like this site is affiliated with WG, but I can't tell for sure. And my question is regarding the "Video" option on that site. Some replays seems to get converted into a YouTube video and others do not. And I have no idea why. I have a video that I uploaded that got converted to a YouTube video in about 2 weeks or so. And I have a second one that uploaded that still has no video. And then I see other replays that seem to get videos made within a day or two. Does anyone know the secret? I'd like to watch one of my replays and see what happened during a particular fight. Also, if anyone knows a trick to fixing the broken replay system, itself, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks.

Here I will post replays of my better matches. Feel free to comment and critique. Before we begin though, I would like everyone to know that they area able to record full-quality replays, regardless of how weak their PC is. Using old WOT-based videos as an example: Proof of concept: Tutorial:

Why? Why did you reduce replays to 30? Why 30? Why not 40 or 20 or 60? WHY NOT ASK THE USER BASE WHAT THEY WOULD PREFER??? ( yes I know I am shouting) ..and yes I just lost a replay I wanted to make a video on, and yes I suppose I could have edited whatever file you have to edit that users had to figure out... but the questions stands... Why did they add the restriction? Why did they choose 30? Why did they not ask the user base what they would prefer? harrumph
