Are you using the latest version of the game? If not, the replay may be from a newer version hence the lack of support.

When i try to watch replays, i get the palette error. I use WormKit and wkColorFix in the normal gameplay, so how can i do when i want to watch replays?

Right-click on the replay file you want to watch, select "Open With" and choose WormKit in order to open the replay file.
Note that you'll have to do this with every replay you want to watch, as Worms Armageddon will always associate replay files with wa.exe, unless you do some registry editing in order to stop the game from associating the .WAGame extension with the wrong executable, which I don't know how to do.
I'm fairly sure there was a post somewhere in the forum that told how to always open replays with WormKit by default, but I just can't remember where it is.

After you have set it to open with Wormkit (not sure if W:A resets the regkey in this circumstance) you can iirc go to "HKey Classes Root" in the registry and then ".wagame" and set it as read only.

try to open the same game from the root c:\ folder.
Maybe there is a weird stuff with long paths in windows.

He was probably just trying to play a 3.6.29.0 (or alpha) replay using an older version.
