Everything is explained on

- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULaYOFJpd1g&hd=1 - harder approach

- http://inquistor.info/darkblizz/wiki/doku.php?id=tutorials - you can skip youtube vid and just download battlenet directory from here instead modifying files yourself with winmpq

- When you come to the part where you need to place replay files, remember that you need to create /Replays/Multiplayer directory yourself inside Documents\StarCraft II Beta\ replay dir and then place replay files in /Replays/Multiplayer accordingly

Cool stuff, isnt it? biggrin.gif

Waiting for more and more replays to download...

edit: Tested and it Works, according to author single player is comming soon

For us mortals without beta key believe me its very pleasing to do all that, i hope everyone will post more replays so we can enjoy everything inside the game without google ads and stuttering streams smile.gif

I tried to say; lots of people aren't computer geeks. So they simply do not want to get involved with something that brings them out of there computerskill league smile.gif

Compared that what you suggested -> 2 clicks to see others play surely is easier to do tongue.gif

Well, its easier but all you need to do is download battle net directory and overwrite the one in your install dir, and put replays in dir, i mean we all gonna need to download client after all, its great to have streams from all of you, now just waiting for more replays then fun will be complete ohmy.gif

Don't watch the YouTubeVideo. Follow the second link: ( i will be testing this myself here in a sec to see if it works)
http://inquistor.info/darkblizz/wiki/doku.php?id=tutorials

HERE IS HOW I MADE IT WORK:
------------PART 1

How to Access the Full Game Menu

Browse to the directory “C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II Beta\Battle.net”

download the modified Battle.net directory here:[/b] *http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ywoboylz5mn
REPLACE THE BATTLE.NET FOLDER WITH THE NEWLY DOWNLOADED ONE.

-----------Part 2
Download files here > http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ohmfg3jnjyw

On Windows 7/Vista place them into the directory: C:\Users\Your_Username\AppData\Local\Blizzard Entertainment\Battle.net\Cache

On Windows XP place them into C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Blizzard Entertainment\Battle.net\Cache

Note: First enable Viewing ALL hidden folders. Next make sure you check all USERNAMES until you find the one with Blizzard Entertainment. Extract that 18.8MB file into Cache folder you just found.
--------

Where to put replay files
You can put your *.SC2Replay files in “Documents\StarCraft II Beta\Replays\Multiplayer”.
You have to create the folders of Replays and Multiplayer.

You can now play the replay files from the main menu.
