ESL giving the wrong replays.

There are quite a few matches in the ESL which have the wrong replay attached. If you download the replay, it will be named according to the match page that you took it from, but the actual replay will be a different replay entirely. Here is one example: m However, it is very far from being the only...

Looking for replay script for slow-mo and UI removal

Hello. A long time ago there was a script that enabled slow-mo and UI removal in replays. I believe it was made by hakon. I've lost the original one that I had. Is it still available somewhere, and if so, does anyone know where to find it?

Re: New caster - Torpid

You just have to configure in-game volume for each game you play and then you're set. I'd rather do that than configure the in-game volume and mic volume for every single video.

Re: New caster - Torpid

Well, as I said, you can achieve the same effect with one audio track if you just configure mic volume and in-game volume, and test it out before committing to a recording. It's actually less work. No editing or syncing necessary.

You can do it by recording both in the same file, adjusting gameplay volume using in-game settings and adjusting the mic recording volume itself. problem ...

Re: New caster - Torpid

i'd reccomend recording just the gameplay without your voice, and then record your voice using audacity, you'll need to sync up the video and the audio in a video editor but doing this allows you to change the volume of the gameplay, and the volume of your voice independently when editing the video...

Re: The Chaos Sorcerer

I think first you should specify whether you're playing more 1v1 or team games. I'm guessing team games, since that's what most people play, but I don't know. 2 tics I go 2 tics, 1 csm, 1 havoc by default. This is my go-to Sorcerer build, and it's a very common build for him across other players as ...

Re: Base Nukes

I would not hesitate to base nuke if I thought it was a good idea, but honestly most of the time it's not with the 50% damage reduction in Elite. Most nukes are better used outside of base, with the Empyreal Abyss being the exception.

Re: What to do after Chaos Sorcerer + Triple Tic Open?

Option 1: 3x tics, havoc Tex used to do this when he was playing the Sorcerer. It's a little awkward and you have to play it very smart, but it can work, and has its advantages. You can put gens down fast and it's a cheap t1, so you can get to t2 in pretty reasonable time. Option 2: 3x tics, csm, ha...

Re: Terminator special weapons

The assault cannon and the devastator heavy bolter serve different purposes. The assault cannon is a dps boost on a squad that already has very good dps, doing over 100 piercing dps even in spite of the slight storm bolter nerfs. It happens to do courage damage as well, but suppressing isn't really ...

Re: Purpose of Purifiers

Purifiers already are AV with their Justicar. Their weakness as an AV unit is that they need to get into melee, but changing their damage to heavy melee won't fix this; you just need to combine them with a snare. Even with heavy melee they would get countered by walkers, which is supposed to counter...
