[HOWTO - RAMDRIVE] Increasing SWTOR System Performance
Lemon_King replied to Lemon_King's topic in General Discussion
I'm not gone yet, but we've have and other have covered this already. Just one problem, not everyone has enough ram to cover it. But I have included a bit of it in my OP with a link to some posts. -
[HOWTO - RAMDRIVE] Increasing SWTOR System Performance
Lemon_King replied to Lemon_King's topic in General Discussion
All right, looks like people I know have stopped playing and I really haven't logged in awhile. So I'm tossing the reigns of the thread to Ocmer. No hard feelings. Ouch, yeah it looks like your machine is a good bit out of date. More ram may help, but not knowing your Graphics Card or CPU the gain is unknown. Its still used. >_> -

Man, you would have gone insane during DOS days if you had a Sound Blaster ISA Card. -
[HOWTO - RAMDRIVE] Increasing SWTOR System Performance
Lemon_King replied to Lemon_King's topic in General Discussion
I never noticed this personally unless your harddrives run hot or are not cooled properly. e: Heads up, if you're using FancyCache check to ensure your copy has not expired as they released 0.7.2. -

They're raw text, they should easly fit in the forum post limits. If the scripts do manage to become big enough where you need more space you can use pastebin. -

Not exactly, those files are created & deleted during a gameplay session. Except for DiskCacheArena. -

Engine level fixes take time. You have to test them to ensure that the game still works properly, and it doesn't kill some system configurations. -
[HOWTO - RAMDRIVE] Increasing SWTOR System Performance
Lemon_King replied to Lemon_King's topic in General Discussion
Woo late posts, lost my ME2 save so replaying it again. Anywho, Ocmer is correct. err, the guide is the easy way. The auto-batch files are the really easy way. All the Info is linked in the OP in some form so you don't have to go through 50 pages of misc discussion or troubleshooting. You didn't copy your settings folder over properly. Could you please explain where you are having issues? Posting no information expect mindless rage doesn't help, and most people would skip your post. Seriously, I understand why devs ignore rage posts that give zero information. -

Done, removed the 3rd once as it was no longer updated and was a bit redundant due to your new one. -

[HOWTO - RAMDRIVE] Increasing SWTOR System Performance
Lemon_King replied to Lemon_King's topic in General Discussion
That would work, if you want it to point to SWTOR_Original\swtor\settings. Changes no performance and is only cosmetic when it comes to sorting files. If you want, you can write a batch to copy the subfolder back into SWTOR_Original letting it overwrite the outdated data. While it would, the amount of data it would take before heavy wear kicks in would be years from now. And yes the scripts for the RamDrive affect the files being written to all the time. -

Somehow this doesn't surprise me. -
[HOWTO - RAMDRIVE] Increasing SWTOR System Performance
Lemon_King replied to Lemon_King's topic in General Discussion
Did you rename SWTOR in Local to SWTOR_Original, after you made a copy of it? If you didn't your settings for each boot will become temp. Steps 3 - 5. 3: Scrolling down you should see a folder called SWTOR, open it and Copy the settings folder to <SWTOR Install Location>\Star Wars-The Old Republic\SWTOR\retailclient\ 4: Delete DiskCacheArena if it exists in <SWTOR Install Location>\Star Wars - The Old Republic\SWTOR\ 5: RENAME the SWTOR folder in Local to SWTOR_Original -
[HOWTO - RAMDRIVE] Increasing SWTOR System Performance
Lemon_King replied to Lemon_King's topic in General Discussion
Not bad, Linked it in the OP. It caches data once loaded, so any data access beyond first pull will be faster - better for some applications than others, depending on disk access. Optimal settings for my system is a Read Only 2gig cache for the drive with SWTOR on it. I wouldn't have Write enabled on any system without some form of battery backup, secondly users using Fancy Cache with Write enabled have encountered some corruption to data, you're fine if its set to Read Only. e: Added Superspeed 5 as its not Beta Software. -
[HOWTO - RAMDRIVE] Increasing SWTOR System Performance

On lower end systems it can kill framerate because particle effects have no LOD or settings in the menu for controlling density, max count, etc. And its not the *only* thing causing issues, anyways I've already mentioned the file and its in the OP - via a link to the thread that brought it up. From instant (quick format) to maybe instant. -

I guess you never heard of Aftermarket Oil Filter mods for some truck models to improve performance. -

I have it set at Read Only as written data outside of the Ramdrive is very minor. -
[HOWTO - RAMDRIVE] Increasing SWTOR System Performance
Lemon_King replied to Lemon_King's topic in General Discussion
If you're using the default method, it shouldn't break unless you altered something. Just make sure the RamDrive is running before you start the game. e: Also, if you could try getting the full text of the error. Still unsure what would be causing it as you caught the word "Not Supported" in it. -

Lemon_King replied to Lemon_King's topic in General Discussion
Sorry about the long delay on the response to FancyCache, but there is one strong reason why I haven't placed it in the OP right now. Future versions (outside of Beta) will have a cost tied to it. I'll make a reference for it, but not going to make it a mandated portion of the setup. -

Looks like the beta installer had no spaces between Wars-The at the time. Corrected in the OP.
