World of Warships Tips

---

With thanks to Wargaming for the official instructions

The following steps will enable replays in World of Warships with tailoring to OS X.

---

1. Close World of Warships
2. Go to ~/Documents/World_of_Warships
3. Backup the "preferences.xml" file.
4. Open the original (not backup) "preferences.xml" file using a text editor.
5. Scroll to the bottom until you see the following lines:

</scriptsPreferences>
    <consoleHistory />
</root>

6. Add two lines within the root block:

<isReplayEnabled> true </isReplayEnabled>
<ReplayCameraUpdate> 30 </ReplayCameraUpdate>

7. So that it now looks like this:

<isReplayEnabled> true </isReplayEnabled>
       <ReplayCameraUpdate> 30 </ReplayCameraUpdate>
 </scriptsPreferences>
    <consoleHistory />
</root>

8. Save the "preferences.xml" file.
9. On the next launch, all battles will now record a replay.

All replays will be stored in ~/Documents/World_of_Warships.

To launch a replay, ensure that World of Warships is closed and then drag and drop the replay onto the World of Warships icon.

Replay controls:

'PageUp' & 'PageDown' for playback speed control
'Home' for normal speed
'End' for pause (which is actually x100 slower speed)
'LMB' for toggling camera direction between 'free' and 'recorded'
'>' & '<' for fast-forward & rewind (can be used together with 'Ctrl')

---

Note that replays may not be compatible with future versions of World of Warships.

Note that replays can take considerable space on a computer, be prepared to clean out the replays folder often.
