How do I set aside more memory for replays? in your GPL-folder there should be a file named "CORE.INI" (attention: if you did not configure your explorer to show extensions of know type, you might see "CORE.INI.sample" as "CORE.INI" - in that case, make a copy of the "CORE.INI.sample" and name this "CORE.INI"), which you should load into the notepad or whatever editor you prefer and add the following 2 lines: [ Replay ] replayMemoryOverride = 20000 which sets the replay buffer to 20000 KBytes. adjust this to your needs: about half the physical RAM you have should not cause you any trouble - 20-30 MB is enough for a int/pro long race, depending on number of opponents, skid marks enabled etc. Lio

Last night I hounded the AI on the first lap in a Novice race for the whole first half of the track, til the first pink banked turn, and got a 9:01. Afterwards I was disappointed to find that the replay only showed about one lap from the race. How do I set aside more memory for replays? rms [email hidden]

How do I set aside more memory for replays? It's very easy. Add the following line in Core.ini file located into the GPL directory. [ Replay ] replayMemoryOverride = 30000 And have fun Ciao -- Mauro Licciardello E-mail: [email hidden]
