I need help! I manage a italian racing online league. I try to configure the replay size in the core.ini but my server crash quite immediately i start the race (in the Glen for example crashes at the finish of the first race lap). So which value i have to put in [Replay] replayMemoryOverride=0???????? ; Kbytes of replay memory to use if i want to have a raplay size of 150 mega? This the chapter in server.txt about the replay size. ...AUTOSAVING REPLAYS You can edit PLAYER.INI and change the auto_save_replay=0 to =1 in the [SERVER] section, causing the server to, well, automatically save the replay (you better have a lot of free disk space!). Note that by default the dedicated server will only allocate 512KB for its replay buffer, so if you've chosen to auto-save replays you will also need to specify a replayMemoryOverride value in the [REPLAY] section of CORE.INI....

I'm not sure you can use 150MB there might be some upper limit, but try 150000. [Replay] replayMemoryOverride=150000 ; 150Kbytes of replay memory to use [ Replay ] replayMemoryOverride = 16000 ; For 16MB of replay space. This works. Jason. Denny wrote:

Then your hitting a maximum replay size limit. Allocating 16000 should work fine, since its only 16MB. If that succeeds then try something up to 64000. Jason. Tom Oliver wrote:

Your max replay size will be determined by the amount of memory you have. GPL needs about 32Mb , the rest can be used for replays. My replay size was 30000 when a had 64Mb, now is 60000 with 128Mb, and could probably go higher. Ken Jason Monds wrote:

The average size of a typical N4 replay of a league race is like 50-80 meg. 16 meg wouldn't even give you half the race. What I mean by Boom is every time I try to set the replay value to something useful the server crashes. This is on a server with 512 meg of ram and one with 1 gig of ram.

I have a GPL server with 256MB ram. My replay in the .ini file is set to 128MB, I believe. I've had replays of 90+MB with no problems.
