GunZ Replay Examiner (gzRe)
Written by x1nixmzeng
============================----------------------------
This project has evolved from several half-finished ideas:
* Replay host
* Packet editor (to fake hack reports..)
I settled on a property viewer with some forward compatiability..
============================----------------------------
In it's current state it can:
* Parse all known replay versions
* Parse all existing gametypes
* List all characters, including those who join after the recording was started
* Export character sets for Legion's GunZ Entropy
* Tally a range of statistics for the recording timespan
* Export chat logs as text or HTML (colored text)
* Associate itself with the GZR extension (untested on anything other than XP SP3)
I also designed an icon for the GZR format based on the new IJJI GunZ client design ^__^
============================----------------------------
Stuff I'd planned to include:
- Fix for the duel glitch (when the recording was made when players switched - although this was fixed in later clients?)
- Fix to stop the sounds from the owner's POV being heard from another perspective (via a ghost player)
- Plugin support (not complete enough to release)
- Cutting segments from the replay to extract certain parts (I actually wrote a custom control for the interface, but never implemented the replay part)
============================----------------------------
Stuff I really wanted done by now:
> Encoding issues (Korean/Unicode characters in the exported chats and the properties interface are incorrectly displayed)
> All the chat export options to function correctly (untested)
> For it to be fully tested (it was written in short bursts over several months)
============================----------------------------
I think that's all I want to say in this release..
