| Battle Recorder - Tuesday, January 8, 2002 | |
| After weeks of hiatus, the registration pages for playing Shogun online are back up, with new adresses. Find the updated links on the left-hand side. But certainly the most exciting news of the week is the availability of a battle recorder that records your most recent battle and lets you replay it! This recorder was already in the game - it was used by the development team as a debug feature - but only recently it was discovered that it also worked with the finished game! For the recorder to work a small operation has to be carried out. To record a battle Find any shortcut for your Shogun executable - right click and click on properties. Go to the tab Shortcut and find the field Target. It should read (wherever it is installed)\Shogun.exe Now change that to: (wherever it is installed)\ShogunM.exe ER Use ShogunW.exe if you're using the Warlord Edition. Now you got the Recorder installed. Just run the game through that shortcut and your most recent battle will be recorded to the folder /DumpLog. Unfortunately, recordings are always saved to the same file name, so each battle that is recorded will overwrite the previous recording. To playback the battle Make a copy of a shortcut for the Shogun executable and do the same process as above, but this time change the target path to: (wherever it is installed)\ShogunM.exe mEP Use ShogunW.exe if you're using the Warlord Edition. Then just run the game from this shortcut - and this will replay the most recently recorded battle. At the end of the battle, all the troops will freeze and just escape out. If you have any questions/difficulties/suggestions please do post them at our forums, the mighty Sword Dojo. | ||
