The difference in load time was nearly unnoticeable!
So I concluded that what was causing the best part of the load time was pressing all graphics and animations into the video & computer RAM.
But I might be wrong in my conclussions, of course.  |
I have a different point of view, I startup sh3 a lot when testing, and I have a clear rnd/scr/lnd layer set, with it the game loads a mission in 30" compared to the 4/5 min. when loading the full stuff, it also helps a lot (the reduced campaign) with high time compression in SH4.
