I keep trying to view some downloaded replays and I always get a Sync Error when I load them up. I've upgraded through logging onto the multiplayer lobby and it didn't help.

Hmmmm sounds like you didn't get patched right.

Do you get sync errors when playing online? are you replaying replays from non-english 1.00 versions?

I don't know. I only get the sync error when I try to view a replay that other people say they have viewed fine. I can view my own replays without any problems. I patched by logging onto gamespy through the game which was the way I was told I needed to do it.

Is there a way I can tell what version the replays are from?

Not that I'm aware... aside from simply looking at the date of the replay file, and comparing it to when the patches came out.

Try re-installing from scratch, then repatching.

I already did that and it didn't work. The replays were posted within the last week.

Any specific ones that you can link that cause the sync error?

It is where I did searches and have downloaded all the replays I have tried to view from. I just clicked on the "latest" button and then searched to pull up the most recently posted replays.
