i notice one thing today
when i play online in old tm it auto save my best replay and i like watch theme to see how my best run was
that is no longer possible
it still auto save but the whole server time with all car/ghost automatic
damn i want to see my best runs :'(
you released tm2 1 month to early imo
'hope it comes an uppdate soon

I also want autosaving as it was with TMF. Change it or tell us how to change it!

I just wish it'd split up autosaves in the rounds gamemode, a bit disappointing to not be able to compare consistency like that.

Also you can just delete other ghosts and cut up your own timeline if you just want your best lap.

For the same autosave than TMF, you need to activate this in your profile.

Awesome! I didn't know that was there.
It's great to have the ability to toggle it, because they will add up to being quite large now, considering maps and replays are so much larger than in TMF. It's also good it's off by default, or else new players will find their game folder getting huge and may not know why.

What he wants is not to save the hole replay. he wants to save hes personal best replays! and only hes replay.
Just like doing "save previous replay" in-game after you drove a around! that function is gonn save your driving only and it's gonna name the replay "Trackname(Time)" so you can easy browse through your replays and see all your best times.

as i said in another post, at this point i allready got 25 hours of just random driving in replay's. I got no use of that, and i got no chance to find my best times.

i find the "autosave everything" button really useless.

yes Screek

i think that is a misstake from nadeo team
it should be the other way around
my best always autosaved
server replay: save as

Ooooo... it's saving EVERYTHING??? YIKES

Yeah, it should only save your personal best. If you drive a new personal best it should delete your old one and replace it, etc. Just like TMF.

Edit: I was just playing online with "Autosave all replays" on. It works much like it does with a server. It saves the entire round in a single file with all drivers included. That's certainly nice, and I like that, especially if you were playing in a league match.

But I've turned it off again.

I also have some autosaves from the campaign maps and some other maps I've played in solo. But a lot seem to be missing too. It's not saving any from online matches.

Saved files are less than an MB in size each...

They were around 50 KB per file in TMF.
They're around 400 KB per file in TM².

Yes, both are less than 1 MB. But multiply 400 KB times 24,000 autosaved replays, one per map (the amount I had in TMF). That's about 9 GBs if my math is correct, as opposed to about 1 GB in TMF.

Replays are going to take a lot more space in TM², as are maps. I suppose it's mostly 'cause of lightmaps being included with every map, and by extension.. with every replay.

It's not like we're short on disk space though, so it's not really a problem.

I hadn't started missing autosaved replays yet, because I mostly just used them to upload to TMX and get some good times on the ladder there. But since MX isn't accepting replays yet, it hasn't come up.

But when they start accepting replays, I know I'm really going to start missing autosaves. Please give us this option back Nadeo!
