Hey everyone, I have a question to see if anyone can help. I've recently been trying to watch some replays from GosuGamers to try and help myself with certain games I have trouble with, but none of my video players can play the replays. If anyone knows a good video player that they know can run these replays, I'd love if they could link it in this thread. Thanks :D
Starcraft: Broodwar runs replays.
Open the game, and open the replay file the same way you open a map. You can also watch replays online together with other people.
Replays are just a list of commands that starcraft is going to playback for you. Therefor, the only way to watch it is using starcraft.
So, download the replay to your desktop. Then, drag it into My Computer/Local Disk/Program Files/Starcraft/Maps/Replays. Then, launch starcraft: bw and go to single player/expansion/(pick your profile)/play custom/(i think up one level, not sure)/Replays. Then find the replay with the same name and there you go.

Replay is just a list of actions during the game and based on them starcraft can build the game.
Which is of course irrelevant and useless information, a random sentence I saw someone else posting somewhere. However this seems like a good spot to show off with the technical knowledge I don't have.
