If you're using Windows Vista, you need to run the game as Admin, I think. Otherwise the application cannot write new data (i.e. replays) ...

That's why I said you probably need to run the game as administrator, because even if you're saving the replay, the game cannot write the replay file into the playback folder because it doesn't have the neccessary rights.

your all wrong!!!

vista saves replays like a bitch... i'll edit this when i remember where they are..

c:\users\"name"\appdata\local\virtualstore\program files\thq\dawn of war soulstorm

appdata will probably be hidden but i trust you know how to unhide if you havn't already.

Hmmm, I might have to add a feature to my replay renamer to automatically find that folder, nobody's going to know that off the top of their head tongue.gif

If you forget you can search your drive for temp.rec

I am wondering if SoulStorms going to run on Windows7. Hopefully the changes aren't big enough.

So far I haven't heard of any problems; haven't tested it myself though ... post-13661-1143531603.gif
