I'm releasing a new program I wrote that repairs damaged replay files. If
you save replays on Hawaii, you'll occasionally run into a situation where
the replay file is corrupt. The symptoms are that the computer either locks
up or crashes with a page fault. FIXRPY copies the salvageable parts of the
replay to a new replay file. It can also strip out graphics and sound
details that make the replay files larger. You'll find a link to the
program on the Late Night website:

I can vouch for this program. It really can make an unusable replay into
one that runs normally in every respect. Its very frustrating to have a
22mb replay that does absolutely nothing but lock the computer up solid.

Thank-you Dave,

Terry
