Replay Player for Vox Populi/Community Patch - 1.0 Release

[johnchen]

Dear friends,

I am pleased to present a dedicated replay player for Vox Populi/Community Patch. Part of my motivation was to see how LLMs play against VP AI (that's a longer story to tell), but you can watch your own games as well
Visit the project at: https://github.com/CIVITAS-John/vox-deorum-replay

How to Use​

In those examples, Player 0 is an LLM. You can see how they play and reason throughout the game.

• Example save 1
• Example save 2
• Example save 3

Option 1: Drag and Drop​

Simply drag your .Civ5Replay file from your computer and drop it onto the webpage. The replay will load automatically and you can use the playback controls or keyboard shortcuts to navigate through the game.

Option 2: Direct Link​

Share replays with others by linking directly to a hosted replay file. Add the file parameter with the full URL to your replay:
https://civitas-john.github.io/vox-...ub.io/vox-deorum-replay/examples/1.Civ5Replay<br>

You can also specify a starting turn with the turn parameter:
https://civitas-john.github.io/vox-deorum-replay/?file=https://civitas-john.github.io/vox-deorum-replay/?file=https://civitas-john.github.io/vox-deorum-replay/examples/1.Civ5Replay&amp;turn=150<br>

Where to Find Replay Files?​

Civilization V (Vox Populi) replay files are saved with the .Civ5Replay extension. You can find them in:

Windows:

Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\Replays\

Note: Replay files are only generated if you have "Save Replays" enabled in the game options.

Helping Us​

All pull requests are welcome. In particular, we need your help to:

• Visualize all VP5 features (e.g., Oasis) and Natural Wonders.
• Create better/higher-quality textures.
• Visualize replay DATA - e.g., gold output per turn for each player.
• Adding tooltips on the map and on individual events.

I am planning to work on some of these, when I get some more time

The project is built on Alex Webb's civ5replayer.
