Hello I modified my track to nearly the max road possible on the map. The game stopps/freezes as soon the counter ingame goes to 10:00 minutes. No more clicking or going back to the menu possible.
Is there a bug on my track or is this a memory cache problem?
I play it on a modern pc with DosBox at 8555 cpu cylce (Ctrl+F12).
If this is a memory problem how can we fix this to get past the 10:00 minutes driving?  :-\
Thank you very much! :)

It's the game. It can't go after 10 minutes. Something about cache memory size.

There was a message in the first version of Stunts Broderbund 1.0 (wich is not allowed in any current competition). You could continue racing if you wanted but without saving the replay or just watch/save it. The version we use now is Broderbund 1.1 is far better in many aspects but this one.

Thank you guys for your fast reply.
Ah damn so I have to build back my track to get under 10:00 minutes to the finish line.
A bugfixing should'nt be impossible isn't it? Any coders or programmers here?

I can confirm that the AMIGA Version does'nt have the 10:00 minutes bug. It shows excatly the same message like the 1.0 version of Stunts at the time 10:00  :D

..and yes the old versions of Stunts and 4D Sports Driving are working well on big tracks too.  ::)

Or race it in version 1.0. You just can't save a replay.

I wasn't aware I used 1.0 to do it, but I know I've driven the attached track. And indeed, you can't save a full replay of it.

Lovely!!  ;D I want to race it!! :D
Whats your best time on this beautiful track?! :)

As far as I know it is possible to watch part of the replay even after the 10-minute threshold, but only the latest 9:50-10:00, in the sense that the first 10 seconds are scrapped at 10:00, the second ones at 10:10, and so on...

Did you skip some portions of the track, thus getting an elapsed time lower than 10 minutes, but a proper penalty time?

In any case, the maximum is 27:18.35 = 32767 time units of 0.05, then the 16-bit signed integer overflows to negative numbers.
