20 minute load screens

Post by phlimm » Wed Jun 17, 2015 12:22 am

So at first I thought it was infinite but I Ctrl-Alt-Del to Task Manager and let it sit once and then after about 20 minutes the CPU went down from a flat 25% and the Memory went up from 260 MB to over 700 and then the Save game loaded.  This is ONLY from Load from Save, not Continue (I find that fails).


I am using the Large Address Aware Launcher, both NV Regular (with all the required DLC) and FO3 GOTY are via Steam. No other mods.


Is 20 minutes expected load time?  If not how can I fix this?


System info:


Windows 7 64-bit, Intel i5-2450M, 8 GB RAM


TTW: 2.9.4, was using FOMM v0.10 directly but now loading via fnv4gb v1.9.


Load Order:

You didn't download the hotfix. Your save is permanently ruined. You'll need to cry, then download the hotfix and start over.


Or just make a clean save without TTWOptions then install the hotfix.

So, remove TTWOptions from the Load Order?  Anything else?  


 


Then run the game, save exit, and then overwrite the orignal TTWOptions with the new one?

Post by phlimm » Tue Jun 23, 2015 1:39 pm

It definitely made a difference in my load times but only while I was in the current DLC (Zeta).  I fininished Zeta then hit the wastes again and now my load times are again over 10 minutes each.  


 


Also anytime I die, it will not load the previous save.  I have to completely exit the game and reload manually.  Which again is a another 10-15 minute exercise.  Very frustrating when you only have an hour in the morning to play.


  


Is this just something that is part of running TOTW because the save is getting larger as we go on or is there a workable solution?

This only occurred because of the TTW Optionals MCM integration plugin. So it's not a TTW problem, but one of the optional files. That's why we don't merge the optional files instantly, so we can check for things like this.

Post by Puppettron » Wed Jun 24, 2015 12:14 am

tj's guide is make a clean save, add the one from hotfixes.


making a clean save:




  1. delete the optionals esp.  entirely.  you can print it out and burn it if you'd like, i'm not an expert on your coping mechanisms.


  2. load your game, again without that esp anywhere near your house, let alone your LO


  3. save game


  4. install the version in hotfixes section of Alpha Download page


  5. load game, play.


  6. optional:  go to public chat to fix anything that got broken in that process


  7. to reiterate, this will not work properly without a clean save.  failure to make a clean save grants the TTW team the ability to take pictures of your pets and photoshop them into embarassing situations.
