  1. SWTOR uses about up to 8Gb of data (provided you have high settings) continuously. And it's limited to 2.5Gb used at the same time. So it loads in and out of those 2.5Gb data continuously. When it comes to frames per second, the impact is huge. It's a lot faster to do this from RAM to RAM than from SSD to RAM. RAM will deliver the data nearly instantaneously whereas it'll take a few ms for your SSD to do it. Check the FPS drops in PVP or crowded areas with classic HD, SSD, HD+unleashed, SSD+unleashed. Results are self explanatory.
  2. True, but you have to face it : either you'll run the game slower until they make a change, or you try to make it faster in the mean time one way or the other. Your choice.
  3. I already answered him. He should start unleashed with swtor unleashed, not the normal launcher. Never. Since it will verify everything is in place. If you do as you say you might encounter several problems depending on what you do between 2 game sessions.
  4. If you reboot between it's normal. It won't rebuild it if you don't reboot in the mean time.
  5. It will outperform 10x at least the best SDD, so yes.
  6. That's exactly what I'm saying. You don't understand.
  7. SWTOR Unleashed is also made for people with SSD such as myself. Please refrain from misleading people with this kind of comments. Regards.
  8. I also have a good SSD. I play unleashed with localapps+diskarena+fx+dynamic and it's quick to start and gives the best enhancement from what I tested.
  9. I suggest you try to read the original post entirely (especially "limits" part) since it answers your questions already.
  10. Not really, most of the loading time comes from network communication unfortunatelly :/
  11. Why don't you try the recommended thing? localapp+diskarena+fx+dynamic and that's all? Invisible NPC = you are missing a texture file. (understand : "a swtor asset") So unchecking the faulty one should solve your issue i guess. You can try to "remove and quit" then delete you xml configuration file, start unleashed again and set it up again.
  12. I guess i can probably enhance the memory algorythm to take into account the page file.
  13. I'll think about it for next release. Until then feel free to stick to 3.2 if you think it helps you more. But again, if you get the message you'll probably get no benefit from unleashed because if the game swap data to hard drive : you'll get SWAP. Which defeats the purpose of unleashed.
  14. There are 2 kind of errors. 1- A blocking error message saying "you need to free blablabla". And that I won't remove. Since Unleashed CAN'T work the way it needs to work without this memory available. I prevents people complaining here "I don't understand it crashes, it's slow, blablabla". 2- A non-blocking warning message saying your memory is kind of low for the settings you chose. I could maybe make an option in settings to hide it. But I don't recommend at all running SWTOR Unleashed if the warning is displayed. If you know how to manage your computer, you probably know you'll have no benefit using unleashed if you get the blocking message. So don't use it.
  15. Indeed, it'll speed up the game, but it won't prevents fps drops as well as swtor unleashed does since RAM is 10 to 30 times faster than the fastest SSD.
  16. I just updated the main post to be more precise on this matter. Please give it a look.
  17. It's rude not to read at least the original post before asking a question dude.
  18. It's not. My webserver just stopped for maintenance a few hours.
  19. Try DiskArena + LocalApp+Fx+Dyn And check performance drops with CTRL+SHIFT+F. (since you have a good conf, your max fps will probably not raise).
  20. What settings did you choose? How could you tell it didn't improve performance? Unless you make the effort to read the very first post, it's quite understandable.
  21. Mostly none. It's just in case we miscalculated the ram drive size. But pratice shows it's not usefull in 99.999% of the situations. The message should state clearly how much RAM you lack. It should be clear enough, you don't have enough RAM. What is exactly the message? It should be clear enough. Are you using a 64bits Windows? If you only have 2.5Gb of free (=available) RAM, since SWTOR will require that much itself, you'll have 0 for unleashed. To me it looks like you run a 32 bits Windows... unfortunately for you, these operating systems can only use 3GB of your RAM in its default configuration.
