SH4 probs

[Ironslayer]

Hello all, Ironslayer here, well it`s like this. I`m running SH4 with The Burbsters complete mod package. Alls been fine till now, but now when I load my last save it`s okay till I go to the map view and press plus (+) for accelerate it goes all slow and jittery and won`t go beyond 256 acceleration. The save file is about 500 or so megs big so is this the prob? I`m also using Large Address Aware I got from here. Was working fine and dandy but now.....
Intel Core 2 Quad. Win 7 64 bit SP1. 8 gig of DDR 2 @ 400Mhz Sys Ram and Nvidia GeForce GT 730 with 4095 of Ram. This is really annoying as it`s been working real well up to now. Any suggestions?? Cheers Ironslayer

Hi Ironslayer
Frame rates in the nav map will drop as you expand the map and also TC has a significant part to play as well.

Your position as to the traffic around you and closeness to ports also has a significant bearing regarding your frame rates and stuttering.

In relation to your half a gig of saved game files is there any reason why you need to keep so many?
If these saved games relate to a number of completed missions then there is no reason why you cannot delete a number of these as they no longer serve any useful purpose.


I you have added any additional mods then please post your list as propbeaie has suggested.

Ironslayer, go ahead and post your mod list for THEBERBSTER, and let him see what you've got running. I thought I'd also mention that if you are saving each time over the same save file, they will get rather large, and can slow down your computer. If instead, you have multiple saves, then as THEBERBSTER mentions, getting rid of the extras will help. Generally speaking, shorter patrols make for smaller saves, though that does increase "drive time" if your home port is rather a distance from the patrol area... Another thing, run the LAA app again, and make certain that it is set to "True" for the SH4.exe file...

as theberbster has suggested, publish your mod list. normally, we(subsim captains) use the tool in JSGME that captures your list very neatly and copies it to the windows Clipboard for you to easily paste here.


btw, are playing the US side or the German side, at the moment?
oh, yes, and welcome to subsim. :salute:

Hi all, a very big thanks for the input much appreciated, ive deleted the other saves up to my current one which stands at 500MB. Ello Burbster here`s a list of the mods enabled in JSGME, I picked these ones as enabling Mod 1 clashed with all but the others i`ve enabled. Now to me a 500Mb save is pretty substantial but if I delete it i`ll wipe out all my hard work or that`s what I think? I`m no slouch when it comes to gaming or PCs for that matter, however i`m no modder!! These Mods I must say to all concerned are truly a work of Art! Wish I had the knack of it! A big thanks to you all. Ironslayer

Hi Ironslayer
You need to add this mod "Webster’s New Orders Bar Menu for v1.5" after the main mod 1 if you are not going to use MaxOptics IV for GFO 1.1 as it is included in it.
