[Resolved] Replays Busted Again

Autosaves are not overwritten with new times for anything done in multiplayer.

PBs don't like to save for either multi or single player. Sometimes they randomly disappear altogether.

I think this was fixed in prior patch. It's back again though.

Guess you can't manually save replays while playing multiplayer if you get a really good time you want to keep?

Its back really?
Or do you just have the wrong setting in the configuration, as there is now a checkbox related to replay saving? :?

Thank you for the reply.

May I ask which setting you refer to? It would be nice if it were on my end.

I see a checkbox for "Disable replay recording" in the Game tab, but it is not checked.

Also,after getting a PB playing regularly or in official mode, and I look at opponents directly after, the replay disappears altogether.

Again, thank you for the reply, any help is appreciated.

EDIT:
It's this:

Perhaps I should have posted in that thread, my bad.

No problem, don't worry.
Yes, I was referring to the checkbox "Disable replay recording", it is unticked as default value, which is the correct setting there.

I think I figured out what went wrong.

Autosaves are still saving (phew), but the way they are named has changed. So when i went through my autosaves I was looking at the old naming convention and not seeing times change.

I noticed for Canyon however, there are replays called edk_canyon_trackname and then edk_TMCanyon_trackname.

Looks like the former is still older and now it's just TMCanyon? Because I also see entries for edk_TMValley_trackname and edk_TMStadium_trackname. (Obvious reason is that there's no other way to differentiate between replays for different titles.)

So I guess it's just session replays are acting a little funky. That's no concern for me because I'm just very happy all those replays i thought I lost I actually did not.

Sorry for any confusion.

Don't worry, any confusion is there to be clarified and analysed.
It could have been a bug, you know :lol:
