Memory Usage

Does this amount of memory usage seem a little high to anyone else?

For some reason game lagged out and started giving me issues. Anyone else have this problem before?

No.

Pretty typical. That's only a little under 1 GB so you're in the clear. However, your system, depending on whether you have enough RAM and whether you applied the 4 GB patch, could possibly have a problem.

Must of been just something up with my machine. Rebooted and everything worked great again. Still had the same memory usage.

I have enough RAM to run 16GB. But the 4GB patch wouldn't install on my computer it doesn't like the Steam directory for Silent Hunter for some reason.

Actually, the 4 GB patch that I applied has nothing to do with Silent Hunter itself, but is a computer setting in the registry.

You should (or could) find the program named Large Address Aware - it may be in the Download section?). Adding SH4 from the folder from which you execute SH4 will enable the program to use more memory. I ran the 4Gb patch and LAA several years ago, resulting in zero CTDs or freezes since. Good luck!
