1) I couldn't have done this without the help of the programmers at Relic.

Does this mean it's OK to delete setup.exe after installation?

Such an awesome tool, thanks for making it!

Are you going to add additional features like total damage, resources, tanks destroyed/made, all the good stuff we are missing from the coh1 stats and more?

Information like damage, kills, resource income, mouse movement is calculated by the game engine and is not included in the replay, so it is not possible.

I was about to invisible this, but in stead I'm gonna answer.

First of all, thanks for the compliment

Secondly, you're obviously not a programmer, because you are talking out of your ass:
1) I couldn't have done this without the help of the programmers at Relic.

2) From a technological viewpoint, what they created is absolutely fucking awesome. While Blizzard spent probably 10 times the money and 2-3 times the time to produce the engine for SC2 which can't even hold a candle to the engine of CoH1, Relic pushed the envelope even further with the Essence 3 engine.
That is what sets them apart and the reason why we play CoH and not SC2.

You may not be happy with the current state of the game and that's fair enough, but show the programmers some respect, because they fucking well earned it.

Most of it is indeed already in the game. The post match screen shows a lot of information, like build order, steam profiles etc. It even shows additional information which are not displayed by this replay analyzer, like resource graphcs, damage, etc.

I don't understand why people are always negative towards the developers. They're working realy hard and they even communicate a LOT with community members who are trying to create something complementary, like this replay analyzer.
A team has limited resources, you can't do everything. You have to set priorities and do one thing after another.

As you know, once you save the reply you can't see any more information. Therefore, I was wondering that if they were willing to help with this why not include it in the game. That's all.

Is it possible to see ability usage (globally cast and unit cast) and unit upgrades in the current build? I see that the flamer HT upgrade is shown, but I haven't seen any others. Also, there seem to be some mistakes with regard to stolen weapons in the Build Order window. I am looking at a replay of a game I played as Soviets and some MG42 steals get listed as me building a Maxim. Same with a Pak steal listed as Zis build.

actually i am studying computer engineering which contain programming ( i am at C# atm), i know how hard could be making these all i wanted to say this program should be included ingame with ingame leaderboards too.

another good program from community moderators. good job.
What the programmers do at relic? Get money for taking sh!t?

Very nice. This will just add to the feeling that COH2 is becoming what COH1 was.

A question: I had a first run on one of my replays, and I wonder if there is a problem with the map? I could not recognise the supposed footprints of my own commands. It's like they were mirrored or something(?)
