Save games are HUGE...

BooBooLovesAll · 07-15-07, 03:44 PM

It used to take under 30 seconds to save a game, now it takes a few minutes.

Checked the folder.. 500mb save.

I turned off the developers options in the main.cfg... what the heck?

Also.. the start up menu now takes a few minutes longer in 1.3 than 1.2. I could get up, make a sandwhich.. before it would be done.

odd because my saves are about 5mb, in total. for 2 or 3 saves. and its faster but bearing in mind i did a full clean up of my rig recently that is most likely sod all to do with the patch.
but it realy shouldnt have gotten worse for you.

I deleted.. then reinstalled SH4 and then patched it.

Then added the mods.

Furthermore... I used to be able to open the tubes in rapid succession.. now its back to the way it was with 1.2?

Sounds to me like a fresh install and just putting patch 1.3 might solve your ills. If it is acting like 1.2 then there is a problem for sure.

My game loads quickly and when done puts all the files away quickly. It has not done this since 1.3 patch. I see improvement over all with loading and shutting down.

You using any mods?

All that I use is the green button mod and the officer hat mod. What is troubling is the torp doors are acting like they did in the previous patches.
