Gurken Khan Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 Hi. I downloaded the 0ad-0.0.24b-alpha-win32.exe (Build 24936) and installed it, but the game does not generate replays. It does generate the folders with the metadata.json, comparison with older versions shows there probably should be a commands.txt, too? But there ain't none. I (unnecessarily) installed it for all users, don't know if that is of any relevance. As stated above I'm on Win 8.1. Ideas? thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silier Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 hello, please try to whitelist 0ad/pyrogenesis in your antivirus or try to disable antivirus for the time you play 0ad if whitelisting does not help or is not possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurken Khan Posted April 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 @Angen I whitelisted both the 0AD application folder and the destination folder, didn't do the trick. I was skeptical from the beginning, as there wasn't a problem with the previous versions of 0AD or the antivirus, and, as I mentioned before, the folders including the metadata.json are created. (Didn't find a way to shut down the antivirus, neither in the app itself nor with the Task-Manager, but I also prefer to have it active...) Anyone else here on Win 8.1?

We force metadata to be generated. IIRC ther were some issues with it and elexis amde some changes. Replays however are different. I've seen config files being deleted by antiviruses. The person had three installed one of them was a spyware and could only be found by looking in the task manager. Took me an hour to get rid of it using services process explorer and adwcleaner. You can also run the game with the -writableRoot to try creating files in another place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurken Khan Posted May 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 Well, what do you I know, it was the antivir. @Angen On 29/04/2021 at 7:44 AM, Stan` said: We force metadata to be generated.
