Question about replays


Wulf_Ace

Recommended Posts

Is it possible to watch replay from top down, like when you die in battle and you can watch the whole battlefield, since I want to create replays that include more people not just one.

Now I KNOW there is an option similar to top down view, but when you click that you see stats from your ship and crosshair like you are in action, if you know what I mean.

I found these key binds about replays, does anyone knows any different information OR even how to make a replay from top down. Also if you know any video from youtube that does that kind of replays send a link so I can see it.Tnx

 

 

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)

Why not use the "replay renderer"?

This reminds me of the camera angles used by observers and Twitch streamers for the kots broadcasts.

I have an idea of what you require, although I have not done it myself. You may want to check this out. I'm pretty sure this would work in live and replays (a guess).

Pressing M for the map view doesn't work on replays? It's been a long time since I messed with them and I didn't really do much regarding camera movements, but I kind of remember being able to freely switch between map and normal view on my RTS CVs' replays, independently of what mode the view happened to be during the actual battle. I'll check it out later when I'm in front of the rig.

Salute.

P.S.: I've run some Hiryu, Shokaku and Saipan replays from 0.7.12 (I did lots of standalone clients' backups, fortunately) in order to test things, and my memory was faulty: switching between tactical map and normal view wasn't possible even back then, but if you entered the former at some point after the battle had started, detaching and re-attaching the camera allowed to remain on that view for the rest of the match duration, as long as you touched nothing afterwards. The problem is, when hiding the HUD the ships and squadrons practically disappear and you can only see the tracers and smokescreens. I don't remember in which battle(s) with surface ships I entered tactical map so I won't run the same test on them, it isn't worth the effort of going through all my replays one by one.

Minor correction, then adding the post scriptum.
