How to send a replay for OSR or FBR transmission NO COMMENTS?

On the page of the replay you uploaded there is a button "CONTESTS/REPLAY MANAGEMENT". Click and you will see the “FBR NO COMMENTS” and “OSR” buttons if your replay is suitable for the competition. Replays older than two weeks and replays that were not completely recorded are not suitable.

How to submit a replay to the VoTReplace competition?

All replays uploaded to the site participate in competitions on the VoTReplace website. True, at any given moment we hold competitions only for some of the tanks. But all replays with these tanks are included in the competition. You just need to upload the replay.

Problems with replays

No information about the fight

If you leave before the end of the battle, the replay is not completely recorded. You can view it, but you cannot download information about the results of the battle from it. And it is also impossible to check whether the results of the battle have been falsified. Therefore, information is not downloaded from such replays and they cannot participate in competitions. We don’t write videos for them either!

How to delete a replay?

Go to the replay page and click on the "CONTESTS/REPLAY MANAGEMENT" button. Please note that you cannot delete a replay sent to OSR or FBR NO COMMENTS programs if the replay has already been reviewed by the moderator.

The file is not loading

We are very meticulous about what is uploaded to our site. Therefore, you can only upload replay files and only if they are recorded correctly. Unfortunately, in the game World of Tanks there is a very difficult to detect and rarely reproduced bug, when even a replay recorded to the end turns out to be recorded incorrectly. This can be understood if the file size is significantly larger than 1 megabyte. Such replays cannot be uploaded to us either.

How can I watch a replay of an outdated version?

To watch the replay outdated version games use the appropriate client version:

How do you choose replays for video recording?

We have launched an automatic video selection process. First of all, we select replays of the winners of WoTReplays competitions. And then we focus on the following criteria:

• Replays uploaded by players of top clans. In this case, the battle is victorious, the “Master” class badge is received, 4 or more opponents are destroyed. Such fights are often useful and interesting to watch. The list of clans may change and be supplemented depending on the situation in the game;
• Replays from players who have played more than 5000 battles and have a statistics indicator of wn8=2500 or more. Additional conditions: the battle is victorious and the “Master” class badge is received;
• Replays from players who have played more than 10,000 battles and have wn8 statistics from 2400 to 2500. Additional conditions: the battle is victorious, the “Master” class badge is received, 4 or more opponents are destroyed;
• Replays from players who have played more than 10,000 battles and have wn8 statistics from 2300 to 2400. Additional conditions: the battle is victorious, the “Master” class badge is received, 6 or more opponents are destroyed;
• Replays from players who have played more than 15,000 battles and have wn8 statistics from 2200 to 2300. Additional conditions: the battle is victorious, the “Master” class badge is received, 7 or more opponents are destroyed;
• Replays that were included in the selection on the site, but selectively;
• Replays sent by our participants

Often World game of Tanks brings unexpected victories and disappointing defeats. Many tankers try not only to get a lot of experience and silver for the battle, but also to be awarded a special medal. There are few main rewards in the game, and they are not easy to achieve. But every player strives for this.

OSR

Not many tankers follow the game at all. Some people just jump into the game and enjoy it. But there are also those in the community who watch World of Tanks and search the Internet for guides, as well as other videos and articles.

One of these training projects was OSR with Kirill Oreshkin. Episodes have been published for more than four years on the game’s official YouTube channel. OSR are the best replays of the week, selected by a team of specialists. Usually this includes battles that were marked by funny moments, offensive tactics, instructive incidents and simply funny battles.

Awards

OSR with Kirill Oreshkin does not just collect the best fights in one collection. Everyone who gets there receives an OSR medal, as well as a certain amount of gold. In addition, the battle of the awarded player will be seen by the entire tank community, which will lead to the popularity of the tanker. Therefore, it is not surprising that many people want to get into OSR.

Analogue

Before we find out how to send a replay to the OSR (WOT), we will learn about one more project. VBR is the Great Belarusian Random, which is a kind of analogue. Previously, by the way, he was also voiced by Kirill Oreshkin, but over time the collection began to be released in the No Comments format.

This includes battles that stood out not just because of their unusual or professional gameplay; they often contain replays from battles that were notable for their unusual jumps, falls, bugs and other funny moments. The stupidity and ignorance of tankers is often ridiculed here.

Selection

Many people want to see their fight in the OSR. Not everyone knows how to send a replay, besides, some believe that if a player has done a lot of damage, then he will a priori end up in this show. Actually this is not true. Ordinary bush standing is rarely rewarded. The battle should be dynamic, and also successful and truly swashbuckling.

The wotreplays website was specially created for those wishing to get into the OSR. How to send a replay is written there. This is not difficult to do, but first you need to understand the principle by which battles are selected.

First of all, you need to decide in which category you would send your battle. There are many of them, and they are often associated with major rewards in the game. At the beginning of the collection there are usually several replays that fall into the “Warming up” section. Here you can often find fights with funny incidents, incredible luck or skill.

The “Warrior of the Week” nomination goes to the one who made the maximum number of frags among other nominees. The “Defender” is the one who showed a masterful game, defended his or a neutral base. Moreover, the battle should be such that it seems that the recipient is about to lose.

The “invader” is given to the tanker who captured the enemy base, and either did it very skillfully, or outwitted him, or some funny moment happened. “Sniper” can be obtained for an excellent shot that helped “drag” the battle. “Support” is awarded to the player who was at the very bottom of the list and thanks to whom the allies won.

The “Steel Wall” is awarded to the gamer who, thanks to a masterful game, was able to block a huge amount of damage and lead the team to victory. “Scout” is given to “fireflies” who not only stood in the bushes the entire game and caused a certain amount of damage, but did it by choosing good positions.

If you play in a platoon, then your battle can receive the “Brothers in Arms” OSR award. We'll figure out how to send a replay a little later. In the meantime, you can receive this reward together with a friend, if you were able to win together/three together, and also made the maximum number of frags per platoon.

There is also “Excellence of the Week” - this is a free nomination that can include a player who simply stood out in a non-standard fight, but it is impossible to qualify him for a special nomination.

Registration

If you are sure that your game should be included in the OSR, you will learn further how to submit a replay. To do this, you need to go to a website specially created for this - wotreplays.ru. There you need to authorize your WoT account.

Immediately you will see “Add reals”. You need to click on this button and select the video you need in a folder. It is also worth adding a title and description, in which you can point out special moments or key battles. In “Replay Management” you only need to select the program you want to be in, as well as the nomination.

In the same way, you can send your battle to VBR.

Discontent

Many people know how to send a replay to the OSR program, but are always unhappy that they cannot get there. If you just submitted your winning battle, you need to understand that the selection process takes more than a month, so if you didn’t find yourself in one of the next episodes of the show, it makes sense to wait.

Also, according to Kirill Oreshkin, who is directly involved in the selection of replays, only 1% of the videos sent are worthy of being included in this show. Some players believe that if they received the “Master” and dealt the most damage, then they are already obliged to get into the OSR and win gold. But in practice, as you already know, the selection is very careful, so getting into the program is not so easy.

Those who failed to get into the OSR have a chance to end up in another equally famous program - “Didn’t get into the OSR”. This is where those few fights end up that were a little short of Kirill Oreshkin’s show.

Any player of the World of Tanks project will remember more than one truly epic battle that will be remembered for a long time: the first “Kolobanov”, the first “Fadin”, the first “Redley-Waters”, and any battle where the allies merged and had to be dragged or the number of tanks inflicted/extracted damage exceeded all reasonable values. You want to brag about such fights to your friends and post the results on the forum - and the game allows anyone to do this.

The game client allows you to record all ongoing battles - to do this, you just need to check the box next to the “Record battles” item on the first page of the main menu of the game. The format for saving recordings is original; they are located in the Replays folder of the main game directory. Finding the required entry is very simple - everything is hidden in the file name, its structure is as follows: date of start of the battle (year, month, day, hours, minutes), tank name, map name (attention, the map name is indicated for the English version of the game and may not be the same in Russian-speaking).

To play a recording, just click on it and the game client will launch automatically, without even needing to go online and log in. Before playback starts, hints are displayed - which keys allow you to speed up, slow down the recording, go to the beginning or pause.

But turning on the recording and saving it is not enough - you want other players to appreciate the battle. Wargaming has also provided such an opportunity - there is an official website WoTReplays.ru, Replays.pro on which, after registration, you can save your battle recording and send not the file to your friends or acquaintances, but only a link to it. Each saved battle is accompanied by a description of the player, results that can be assessed without downloading the replay, as well as brief information about the map, type of battle and player’s technique. The site conveniently implements a search and sorting system by levels and types of tanks, keeps a counter for downloading a particular replay, the number of “likes” (a nod to social networks) and, of course, it is possible to leave your comment. The only depressing thing is that in order to view replays, you need to have the game client installed on your PC.

So the next step is to record a video from a World of Tanks replay. To do this, you will need special programs, however, working with them is quite simple. Step by step, it can be divided into two parts - the actual video recording and editing (overlaying sound, titles, special effects). There are many programs for recording video from the screen, both paid and free, but the most popular is Fraps - a convenient utility that allows you to adjust the quality of the recorded image and the ability to overlay audio from a microphone directly at the time of capture. For editing, they usually use the free VirtualDub editor or the more powerful Sony Vegas editor, which, however, you have to pay for.

The scope for creativity when creating such videos is enormous - everything is limited only by your imagination. The created video is usually posted on the YouTube portal and anyone can evaluate the final result.

Those who want to convey to the user not one, but several video clips, can be advised to create their own channel on YouTube, but if such a hobby has become serious for you, then you cannot do without the appropriate hardware. Currently, there are specialized video capture cards that record and encode the stream “on the fly” and do not load the central processor and RAM your PC. The cost of such boards is in the range of 1000 USD, so such a solution is not suitable for everyone.

Today we’ll figure out how to send a replay to World of Tanks. Please note that anyone can send a replay to WoT. Now more details.

OSR. How to send a replay - basics of the process

First, let's figure it out - what are we talking about? A World of Tanks replay is not a video as such - it is a very small file, a digitally recorded stream of signals that were exchanged between the player’s computer and the server during the battle. This file is stored on the user's device - in the root directory of the game, in the Replays folder.

The file is written to the folder automatically, but only if this function is enabled in the account settings. Particular attention should be paid to the fact that there can be three options: no recording at all, recording every fight or only the last one. The best option, especially if there is not a lot of free space on the computer, seems to be the third one. Otherwise, you will have to periodically clean out the specified folder.

Preparing for publication

Before asking the question “how to throw a replay into an OSR”, you should carefully review it. It is necessary to evaluate it extremely critically and objectively according to the main parameter - did you really do something out of the ordinary in battle? The competition in the “Best Replays of the Week” program is extremely high, and just a successful shot or maneuver does not guarantee you victory in the competition.

Your battle should be truly iconic, as it will be set as an example for other players. As practice shows, battles most often appear in the program, where the player demonstrates the following: survives to the end, simultaneously destroying several opponents; makes several successful shots in a row from difficult positions; makes non-standard decisions that radically influence the outcome of the battle or change its course.

If you have really created something similar and consider yourself worthy of being nominated for the role of the best in a particular category, proceed to the next point, namely the process of sending the file to the desired address.

How to upload a replay into OSR: process technology

In order to demonstrate his success on the tank battlefields, the player must take the following steps:

Secondly, select from the menu required service called Wotreplays and follow the link. This is the information repository for OSR - how to send a replay is written here in sufficient detail.

Thirdly, download the selected file by clicking on the appropriate menu item. One feature should be noted here: the service allows you to simply store your records, without publication. And if you decide to definitely try to become a participant in the program, you should check the appropriate box in the “Send to OSR” item before downloading.

Fourthly, after the download is complete, the portal will offer to describe your file and its successful actions. The description should be sufficiently detailed, indicating the time periods to which special attention must be paid. If this is not recorded, the recording will be rejected by the administrators and the story will not be included in the program.

The best replays: what are they for?

Being included in a popular program has several advantages for players.

1. Nominees whose recordings are aired are paid in-game currency (gold, from 1000 to 2500 coins) and awarded unique medal. Moreover, it is quite simple - to become a participant in the OSR. How? Send a replay and wait for your lucky chance.
2. This repository of information is truly invaluable. By watching the successful battles of your colleagues, you can learn a lot in terms of gaming.
3. Also, with the help of this service, you can expose a person who, without a twinge of conscience, uses prohibited game modifications: sending a corresponding video indicating violations will interest the administration to pay attention to an obvious crime, and the punishment of an unscrupulous fighter will not be long in coming. In this form it is a very effective tool.

Many players strive, but not every one of them decides to try their hand at becoming an OSR winner. “How to send a replay so that it is accepted?” - this is one of the main questions that often stops fighters from publishing their masterpieces. Don't be afraid. There is nothing complicated or scary about this. But there is an opportunity to receive not only moral satisfaction, but also material confirmation of your exploits.

Good luck to you on the battlefields!
