fafreplay format

[RoLa]

there is a java program FAchart, that extracts information from old SCFAReplay. It shows some nice charts, micro, actions, build orders ...

i looked at the different replay formats and the sources of fachart and fafclient. I understand that the fafreplay format has
- json header with meta information
- body is base64 encoded

the decoded body fafreplay seems completely different to old scfaeplay. Is there something like FAchart for the new fafreplay format? If not can someone help me to understand the new format? Perhaps i can modify fachart to read the new format.

I have modified FAChart to be compatible with new fafreplay format. The source is included in the jar file which is wrapped with the exe.

EDIT:
My modified version seems to have a serious bug. I deleted the file. So use the version of fffmmm.

the compression is not compatible with standard formats it seems.
here is a minimal python program that will bas64-decode and decompress:

Code: Select all

from PyQt4 import QtCore
replay = open("replay", "rt")
replay.readline()
bin=QtCore.qUncompress(QtCore.QByteArray.fromBase64(replay.read()))
print bin

someone said something about when watching the FAFrepley, there is a original replayed made in some cache folder that you can use.... this question came up the other day also.

Yes there is an original replay in cashe folder, that appears after you wach replay you want to view in FAChart

But i heared that there is a modified FAFChart that works with FAF replays

New version of FAChart see first post!

Can someone move this thread to "Useful tools & mods"

Thanks!

Spoiler: show

nothing happens when i run it?

Spoiler: show

nvm just takes a while to load - java

I select a replay to open and then nothing? Is FAchart supposed to run in a specific folder or something?

FaChart has been modified to analyze FAF-Replays already quite a while ago:
