You need that .cfr file to report hackers. The option is greyed out when playing cf: quit 1 game and you will suffer the consequences (it will count as a loss).

I bet they added that to stop alot of br's reporting. im pretty sure you can still save them even with replays off, its just longer. Heres a tut http://www.youtube.com/user/BlindRob#p/u/2/9mg5PLcJvvc

never seen that befor o.o

That option is new, it just came out with the Navy Seals patch. I'd only recommend disabling that option if and only if your FPS is generally around 30. By disabling it, your fps should jump higher.

But, you never know when you're going to need that replay after a game, and if you do need it. It won't be saved because of this option. So it's a double edged sword that'll come back to bite you in the ass.

In theory, that method will probably not work if you have this option set to not save replays.

So this is what happens, when this option is enabled. Crossfire will record the game you are currently in and make that Temp replay file (ReplayTemp.rtp). Then you'll be presented with the notification to actually save that Temp replay file into a fully usable .cfr file or to discard that Temp replay file. This happens at Game Result.

So if the recording doesn't happen in the first place, that .rtp file will never be made.

As a side note, .rtp stands for .replaytemp

the rtp file is still there even when the option is set to not save so its still recording it anyway.... so kinda a pointless option really.

Really? I'm going to test it out then.

WoW....

Just turned it off...Now i can film with 30 FPS!!!!

There is no point having it on, and if you did pretty good in a game (only reason for saving) then you can rename the temp file.

I did in CW 5 kill with AWM, when game ended I wanted to save replay..
But I had disabled it on my nub account, so it was also disabled on my main =SS..
