I'd like to load this replay, but I get a playback error:

"version error: cannot play game file .....wagame"


any ideas guys?

Install the latest Beta update. This replay uses the 3.6.29.0 logic version.

Works fine for me. The only thing I can imagine is that you're not patched to 3.6.29.0 and the game was recorded with the latest version. Get the update and try again?

Edit: Oh shi- I got CyberShadowed. :(

[karseet]

but I have .28 for the reasons you yourself have listed (bugs, temporary limitations).

with the .28 is it possible at all to open .29 games?

[CyberShadow]

It's not possible, because 3.6.28.0 EXE doesn't know about the changes in the game engine that happened after it was released.

You can install both versions in the same W:A directory. Backup the 3.6.28.0 EXE, then install 3.6.29.0, rename that EXE and copy back the 3.6.28.0 one.
