Pausing replays?

Hey everyone,

A while back I got in the mood to look at some replays for some spectacular screenshots, but I'm rather bothered by the fact that you can't seem to pause them without the menu screen popping up. I'm pretty sure at one point I figured out a way to pause -without- it popping up and ruining the view, but I seem unable to rediscover whichever button or combination of keys did this.

Anyone else have a clue?

It's at the top left side where the game's time bar is, a small pause icon.

That button brings up the menu for me, odd.

Not sure then, maybe try slowing things down in order to get screenshots? :|

You can launch Elite in dev mode (add to -dev to launch options. replays work as normal in dev mode) where you can pause without the menu showing iirc. I don't have the commands at hand though, ask Indrid he can fill you in.

Place this in your retribution folder (Steam\steamapps\common\Dawn of War II - Retribution) and you can toggle the UI by hitting space. Requires -dev parameter as mentioned. You can open the .lua with a text editor to change the behaviour if ya like.
