A good Replay parser

    Someone has made it, you can browse your latest patch or any patch replay, so this is version independent. Worked pretty well with Patch 13 and 15 replay.

    Prometheus working on a parser here but abandoned it apparently. Not to say, I think making an PHP parser is even better, even if you can't look at replays offline. This guy made it version independent, you can see the

    Build Order
    Winner displayed correctly
    GameLength
    Player Names
    Team Colors

    I remember Prometheus parser didn't display correctly the winners also each version caused problems.. This is running smooth. I was wondering if someone wants to develop it with APM and chatlog make an awesome Black interface, using Battlenet or some other source for Map Images and make something like this war3 PHP parser, this one is very exemplary, so making a SC2 replay like it using the lib would be great.

  • It's actually not version independent .. it works for replays saved from Patch 9 onwards which is the patch that changed the replay file format and broke many of the original parsers. Most of the current parsers also do this.

    The best thing about this for a web-based parser is that the author has included the ability to access the files in the MPQ archive without needing to include an external library. When I was getting my replay system working for rts-sanctuary.com I had to be able to install libmpq and then write a c++ utility to extract the files and call that from my uploader. Not having to do this means a lot more people will be able to handle StarCraft II uploads.

    As far as other parsers go, for an offline one the best I have seen is sc2gears that you can find at http://sites.google.com/site/sc2gears/

    Also you should note that, as the author himself has said, the winner is not 100% reliable - it is a guess based on eliminating those players who are seen to resign during the replay.

  • So im hallucinating when I say I load patch 13 and 15 replays? Ok I think the creator said they dont work for him but they work here.

    Im gonna see in another place a person that might continue it but it's better to see what they will give in new patches cause considering old replays wont work anymore, I wont be surprised if the parser stops working or if they change the Replay and maps format to like s2g s2r or s2m for maps
