How do you use the replay function when playing a PBEM Game? Thanks!

Get in your game, click ALT-TAB. Type LoadReplay <and the full pathname to the replay file including the replay file name itself> and click enter. Wait a bit. Hit enter when the replay comes up

Didn't there used to be a button on the upper right hand side on an older game you could hit for replay? That was a lot easier; should be brought back! Even if you enable replay in the options, you still have to type all that in?

That's how I do it. I haven't found a button. Not to say there isn't one.

Thanks. The process does seem rather cumbersome....I will give it a try!

I haven't tried the alt tab route mentioned but you can use the regular version here which doesn't need a path. To do so you access the console. On US keyboards I think this is the key under Esc whereas for UK keyboards you press the ~ key on the right. In the console you type loadreplay and press enter, then use the space key to start/stop it replaying each day through 1-7, moving around the map and rerunning the cycle for each viewed area (zoom works with it). Then quit and re-enter the game to play normally.

thanks
