Question on Replays

Gary Grigsby's World At War gives you the chance to really run a world war. History is yours to write and things may turn out differently. The Western Allies may be conquered by Germany, or Japan may defeat China. With you at the controls, leading the fates of nations and alliances. Take command in this dynamic turn-based game and test strategies that long-past generals and world leaders could only dream of. Now anything is possible in this new strategic offering from Matrix Games and 2 by 3 Games.

Question on Replays

Post by TOCarroll »

[&:] How in the heck DO you review your opponent's last move. The only place I see the remote control is on the strategis map, where all the troops are little dots, so you can't really tell what he did. I know this is dumb, but it would really help if someone enlightened me.

Clicking on the 2 little arrows ">>" (or are they "<<") on the menu bar (or whatever it is called) brings up the VCR. You then click on the play button (">") on the VCR to replay last turn.

[&:] On some (not all) the PBEM games using the new patch (1.033), when I try to run a replay of the turn, the remote control is blank, and does not work. Is this a bug? All of the games this happens in are games which started as version 1.016.[:@]

I noticed the blank VCR control a view times as well, though in my post 1.033 patch games that I've started fresh I have yet to see it again.

[:D] I just got a blank remote (VCR Control), but I remembered which button did what, and it still works. In fact, youcan see through it, so maybe it is an undocumented improvement.[&:]

Nice that the controller doesn't get in the way. [:'(]
