To make my replay size bigger do I adjust the "replay Memory Override?" I
have 256 ram. How big can I make it? Bigger the number the bigger the size
of the replay?

Thanks,

Chris G.

Yep. The figure is in bytes. As for how big to make it... I have 128
megs, and have it set to 64000, which should be enough for anybody! I
remember from somewhere that much over 32 megs doens't make much
difference to GPL itself.

This *has* to be a wind-up, surely? You *must* know. But anyway...

1) Raymond Mays: excellent Bugatti driver, especially at hbillclimbs,
founder of ERA, the inspiration behind BRM (he was born in Bourne).

2) Shelsley Walsh: the oldest continuously used motorsport track in the
world (since 1905). The most prestigious hillclimb in Britain. More
here:

3) The connection: the quote comes from the foreword which Mays wrote
for C.A.N. May's classis 1946 book "Shelsley Walsh".

(If I misunderstood your post, please say so!)

64000 isn't enough for servers...or full-length races.<g>  I ran a test 44-lap
race at the Ring(AI only<g>).  The replay file was 210MB...
