Long load times!..

[RitualClarity]

 

Giving some feedback on a quick test on the suggestions mentioned above from multiple members.

 

Much improvement even for my game. Now it is only a second to about 3 or so for it to load on a game where my character is level 20+and days of play. Nice. Removed all the safetyload and other junk. Made sure my SKSE was fully updated to the most current version and edited the Skyrim.ini as told above. It is now very snappy and responsive ( loading wise.) might even be better visual and general responsive ness. I have almost every possible environmental texture mod available many 2k files as well so this is what usually slows things down.

 

Basically only a slight lag for loading over a clean unmodifiied Skyrim install for my machine.

 

Recap ( at least from my experience)

 

SSD for gaming

SKSE, newest version with memory patches and such included

Skyrim.Ini edits

 

[General]

ClearInvalidRegistrations=1

 

[Display]

iTintTextureResolution=2048

 

[Memory]

DefaultHeapInitialAllocMB=768

ScrapHeapSizeMB=256

Finally removed the SafetyLoad and any other edits and memory patches.

It's NOT the skyrim.ini file

 

It's skse.ini located in {whateveryourinstallpathis}\Data\SKSE\skse.ini

 

Otherwise it won't do a thing

 

 

Well.. guess I don't need anything as it runs very good as it is.. It appears that the Safety load etc was actually slowing me down. Will fix the skyrim thing shortly. Good case for not messing with the files if not necessary. ..

Good to hear . . .

Get a better computer. Yeah that sucks but it's the best way to decrease your load times. My computer isn't super old or anything but when I saw someone else playing skyrim and they were zoning in seconds on their tricked out gaming computer... I gave in to the facts. No matter what tweaks or mods you install or uninstall for that matter, will decease load times if they have been long from the get go. You need better hardware.

 

My computer is very powerful, i dont need to upgrade, the only thing i will agree to is  that i need to get a SSD, the only reason i havent got one yet is that im too lazy, i really dont wanna have to reinstall my windows, but i guess until i stop being lazy and get an SSD i will have to live with the load times..

 

Ooh and just a note the phrase "Get a better computer" isnt the solution to every issue in skyrim, as a matter of fact im having problems just keeping my FPS down at 60, it keeps going over..

 

 

you mean you get more then 60 FPS ?? that could be a problem with v-sync. Do you have that on ?? it should keep your game to stable level rather then having ridicules frame rate happening.

Strange. I can't for the life of me find the SKSE. I recently tried to load FNIS for some walking animmations, bow animatons and such ( next step in creating my perfect Skyrim game) and it gives me an invalid directory error. Could be something wrong with SKSE however reloading it don't work.. Might need to crack open a thread for this weird problem..

Should be in the same area that the "meshes" folder is, if not you don't have it installed correctly

 

Data/meshes

Data/SKSE - skse.ini goes here

Data/SKSE/plugins - all plugins go here {nioverride, storageutil, jcontainers etc}

If one has skyrim on ssd, enabling disablepreloadtovram and enableunsafememoryhacks basicly halves load times without any stutters. Thanks to ssd. Everyones setup is different tho but atleast it did for me. Loading into exterior cell took at least 20 seconds before and now its usually 5-10s. Even if fast travelling from one end of the world to another.

 

Edit: Oh, and those are enb settings if someone starts wondering...

i do have v-sync enabled, and adaptive vsync, my game runs perfectly, except for the mammoths who keeps thinking they can fly, its a bird.. its a plane, no.. its a mammoth... wait it WAS a mammoth, now its dead..

[D_ManXX2]

Are you using something like ENB booster ?? if so maybe some of the ini setting is disabling the video card v-sync settings.

 

Sounds like skyrim physics going haywire on you.

[Mazhen]

i'm using enboost, as regard to v-sync it is enabled, and the mammoths issue iv been having since i started with skyrim, its annoying but not gamebreaking

[...0...]

About long laodtimes dunno why people this saying but i have 30mb saves and still no long load times compare time it's the same as 7mb saves, sinds sheson came with his memory patch.

 

 

Safetyload should not be used with SSME OR SKSE 1.7 btw.
