How to record replays manually

It has emerged there are console commands which enable us to record our own Heroes of Newerth replays manually. We have tested these commands and they do indeed work – the quality is remarkable and we recommend their use however there is no interface, it is literally just your screen and the action. Here’s how to do it:

When you’re in a game go into the console (Ctrl-F8; same to exit) and type “replayrecordstart ” (filename can be anything, for example replay1.rep)

Once you’re done recording type “replayrecordstop”. It saves the replay into your user files folder, under linux it’s ~/.Heroes of Newerth/game/replays. Under windows it puts them in ‘Application Data’ or ‘My Documents’, so you have to move the replay file into your root game folder where the HoN executable file is (hon.exe or hon-x86).

After that, to play the replay you have to go into a practice game and type into the console “startreplay ”.

Acknowledgments to zdd on this one. We hope you capture all of your epic triple kills from now on!
