Replay Problems...

My replays are only lasting about 30 seconds and then stopping way before they should. Is there any way to increase the file size they take up or make them actually last throughout the entire duration of the gameplay?

I've never had problems with replays in the PS2 version and my version is extremely scratched up. Weird...

yeah, which platform do you have this game on.
On PC my replays usually last 4 minutes. I haven't tried it on my newer pc yet!

It should last more than 30 seconds, what are you system specs.
and, how well does driv3r perform.

there are no settings to change which affect the film directors capture duration. therefor I'm not quite sure what to say other than the fact it could be a hardware performance issue.

AMD 2200+ (1.8Ghz)

Well I have a 5 year old Dell Dimension 4600i, Pentium 4, 2.8GHz, 1.5GB RAM, and the only upgrade I've done besides the RAM is the video card. It's AGP not PCI, that's how old it is but it is about the best AGP card you can get. The Nvidia GeForce 7800 GS with 256MB RAM. Even if I downgraded 2 video cards I could probably still play this game in 3D.

The replays last the same length wether I have the 3D settings on or not and that effects the computer performance so I don't think the replay length is pc performance related. The length of the replays depend on what type of game I'm playing as well, like in the mission Tanner Escapes where you're in the back of the truck with the grenade launcher the replays are only 30 seconds but in Miami take a ride replays are about 1 min 30 seconds but I'm not getting longer than that. Also, if I change the game setting all to low the replays still last the same amount of time. It's rediculous not even to be able to get halfway through Tanner Escapes before the replay cuts out. Maybe someone will figure it out, 10 years from now when they're playing games like this online for free instead of duckhunt.

maybe its not the 3d being enabled.. but the actual 3d drivers itself
