Server Connection timeout - Replay buffer

[PeterV]

My installation was completely default as I don't play at this PC.
bike_shadow, bike_reflections, texture_quality and replay were not set at my final test.

My graphics settings were 1024x768, Fullscreen=off, Bits=32 bits, Refresh=default, Antialialising=off, Textures size=High, Filtering=Bilinear, Anisotropic=1
Dynamic Shadows, Reflections and Shaders=On, Draw Distance and Model Details=High, 3D Grass=Off

I tried you're settings, same result core.exe when pressing view.
Also tried re downloading the replay, created a new profile, basically put everything too default nothing seems too work.

Hi,  just a question :
Has piboso the possibility to implement saves for the replay,  every 100mo a save is done and the buffer goes to 0?

Just had a few wierd replays on one of my servers, 3 replays each around 2 hours long on Silverstone and max size was 122MB and one was only 91MB was up to 10 riders ?

Dont make sense as to why so small for once

Same observation here, e.g. one of the replays of the last month is 156 MB /2:06:51 and 11 riders. Another one 1000 MB /50:55, 9 riders and the start of the session ist missing.

What replay size did you use in gpbikes.ini?

I have my servers set to 1GB (1000) and my personal sim to 400MB

Ok, here my results:
- the 156 MB replay was saved with replay=500 (usable for all)
- the 488 MB replay were saved with replay=500 (usable for all)
- the 1 GB replays were saved with replay=1024 (usable for all, but problems with time in replay. Peter already reported.)
- the 867 MB replay was saved with replay=1500 (NOT usable for all)

At the client side the max value which I could achieve was about 1 GB.
Maybe I'm wrong but my suspicion is that values above 1000 in the server's gpbikes.ini are dangerous.

I've also tested the 867 MB at two other PCs and none could play the replay which was saved with replay=1500. Same problem as Peter reported.

Yeah i'm sticking with the replay=1024 we used before, as a maximum on the server, if its needed.

Better try 1000 and see if there are still timing errors, maybe 1024 is another limit which we  pass over .

Yeah makes sence, 1000 it is.
