Managing saves and playbacks
I haven't yet discovered how to delete saves and playbacks. Anybody know how to do this? My system is starting to back up.

Can the autosave defaults be adjusted without having to tinker with the game engine? I would like to customise them.

Is it possible to re-name playbacks?

The default file descriptors used for playbacks I find very user unfriendly. Its almost impossible to find a replay file quickly unless it was the last one you played.

It would be nice if the saves and playback file had player folders instead of all being jumbled together.

I think you need to use Windows Explorer to delete or rename saves and/or replays.

Saves are located in the MyGames folder in MyDocuments.

To find replays, go to Progam Files, then MicrosoftGames, then RiseofNations, where you can find the folder containing replays.

Thanks - I suspect you're right but I was hoping to avoid this rather laborious method of file management.

Those playbacks must take up a lot of space.

I have 4 files in the directory, they only take up around 33k for each save - not much at all.
