Bug: Rendering frames from dump file with render_dump.py about football HOT 4 CLOSED

Update: is render_dump.py meant to generate the frames? Or, is its purpose only to generate the .avi file when the frames are already present?

If you want to render video from a dump you should use replay.py script.
render_dump.py was supposed for converting dumps into visual version with "fake" game rendering, but needs a small fix to not fail on the "deleted" string.

Thanks for your answer :)
What do you mean as "fake" game rendering?
If the fix for the "deleted" string is applied, would render_dump.py be able to generate the frames when these are not already in the dump? Or which kind of visual version would it create?

It would render 2D field with dots representing players, so it is easier to interpret than the row dump, but there will be no real game rendering. To see rendering you need to use replay script.
