I reinstalled GPL after a nice little fdisk, my HD wasn't partitioned before so I lost everything.... I remember a long time ago editing one of the ini's so that GPL would have a bit more RAM to play with, which would increase my replay time. Can anyone point me in the right direction because I can't get more than a 1 lap replay of the Ring saved? Thanx in advance Jon

Add/Edit this line: [ Replay ] replayMemoryOverride = 40000 This value is usually good enough to give me a full race replay. Higher value=more replay, obviously.

Which .ini do you modify this way? I'd like to do it to my mine. Thanks, Gary Jan Verschueren wrote:

Check out my webpage (go to the GPL section) see url below, or: You can increase the size of the replay memory allowance by following these instructions. NB: To do this you need a minimum of 64MB RAM. Place the following into the core.ini file found on your GPL folder (Back up this file before you tamper with it!) [Replay] ; number of Kbytes of memory you want to dedicate to the replay buffer ; default value is 2048 (no setting here by default) replayMemoryOverride=49152 8-) *Peter* - http://www.cix.co.uk/~peterpc/home.html
