WTF???Bug or what!

[Pink_the_Floyd]

When I'm racing any enduro,at the end of the second half it says:"Replay save complete"wtf is this?A bug or something?

 

[JW31]

your CD scratched?

 

[Pink_the_Floyd]

your CD scratched?

No,It hasn't any scratch at all.

 

[Famine]

No, it's not a bug.

If you save the file, then play it back you'll see it only goes up to a certain point - that point will be the point at which you saw "Replay Save Complete". You see, there's only a limited amount of space to save stuff in - and imagine having to collect 2 hours' worth of your button presses... You run out of space.

The time at which the message appears is directly dependant on the amount of input you make. The longest save I've ever had was 42 minutes long.

So it's normal.


JW31 - I realise you mean well, but if you don't know the answer it's best not to speculate and worry the guy into thinking his game is broken...

Aha,so that's why it says it.

 

[Jetboy.]

My longest was 67 minutes.

 

[Famine]

I guess I put more input than you then...

 

[pimp racer]

hey thanks famine i never knew why this happened.

 

[JW31]

oops, my bad

 

[TriplePlay]

My longest was 67 minutes.

You saved a TEST COURSE RACE?!?????

What it you broke out and just did the rubberband trick? Or even better, what if you just sat there at the begining of a race and did nothing for hours? What then?

 

[Pink_the_Floyd]

Then it would say the same

It records input direction, strength and duration. So it would record one LONG full acceleration input. Right up to the point the PS2 crashed or fried.

However in a race situation it ALSO records the 5 AI car's inputs, so there'd be a finite time still before the message popped up. And you lost.

I've seen this happen to me once before in the middle of a race. I thought that maybe it was saving my replay or some deal. Happened to be nothing.
