HELP! Can't find SC2 Replays!

Post by Crossroads Inc. »

SO I have been having some pretty awesome games of late and been wanting to send them to a friend of mine.
Problem, they don't seem to be ANYwhere on my computer.

Now I have a mac, 90% of the time if I want to find something I just do a word search for the file and find it that way. But if I type in "replay" the only files it brings up from SC2 are from months ago. Now the Replays DO seem to exist. I can go into the game and see them, but they don't seem to be physically anywhere on the computer. What am I missing? Where are they being stored and how can I send them to my friend?

According to the internet: /Users/[You]/Library/Application Support/Blizzard/StarCraft II/Accounts/[Account]/[Profile]/Replays

Alternately, you could just search for the extension *.sc2replay

I have... searching just for "replay" yields nothing from the past few months... Again, the games exist "somewhere" I can view them online., but they do not seem to physically exist on my computer. I have searched the account folder and there is nothing there. EDIT: sorry if that sounded snippy :/

Perhaps they've finally patched to online storage. Try logging into your account, then going to view the replay, then saving that replay with a specific new name, then looking for it? I recall finding my own folder was a pain in the neck back in the day, but I set up a shortcut for it soon thereafter. And you can't view auto-saved games easily, only the manually saved ones.

Did you save your replays? Otherwise you might have to log in, and manually sace your latest replays.

What level are you anyway?

Then, it seems that the only way to survive is to use the means of the enemy, to rest survival upon what is expedient, to look the other way. Well, the answer to that is 'survival as what'?
