swredrage Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 I have a pretty good system that is configured only for gaming... In normal low population parts of the fleet I get max FPS of 111-112... But when I go into high pops it can drop as low as 30FPS... The same when in pvp... But not always... Why do some pvp matches in the same maps, drop to 30FPS, But other times it doesn't I am wondering if I will see much of a difference trying this program... I basically want to smooth out pvp This is my current set up Intel i7 4770k @ 4.2, corsair H100 cooler Asus WS z87 MB 3x intel 520 SSDs, I run Win 7 64 on one, Swtor on another, and pagefile on the 3rd G.Skill Trident 2666 8GB... I plan on installing another 8GB this week Sapphire HD7970 VaporX 6GB ENERMAX gold standard 1250w PSU The system is optimised for gaming... I have all non essential services and back ground apps off... I have a fast, stable internet connection Will I see a noticeable difference... ?? probably a little bit, but with those SSDs probably not much at all. If you are getting more memory for games, probably not worth it right now unless you multi-tasking quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBoba Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Anyone tried running this with SoR? I came up with a "C6 error" asking if I had 2gb of memory spare (or something_) and dumped me from the loading screen to desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAMCAM Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 It seems this is causing my game to not display the animations for new skills. A repair and running in retail mode from now on might help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NarroSienar Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Has anyone used the Asus ROG RamDisk utility. I'm thinking of trying it. SO... in looking into it, Asus ROG RamDisk is basically useless for SWTOR as you can only load FULL directories not individual files. SO maybe I'll try SWTOR Unleashed sometime.

Cial Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Has anyone figured out how to get it to work with SoR? Really missing this :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUXs Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Has anyone figured out how to get it to work with SoR? Really missing this :/ Mine never stopped. Did you launch it as retail to patch it? If not, try that, then reload Unleashed and try again...mine is working exactly like it did pre-3.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkerus Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 (edited) SWTOR unleashed is the only way I can get the game to run right now! I get the strangest error when I try to launch SWTOR (after the laucher, the launcher works fine) ever since the patch. It is some windows permission and it has nothing to do with administrator rights. It always happens right before the SoR cinematic. Anyway... Since I load all the major game files and assets into RAM with SWTOR unleashed, I don't get that error. I am really thankful for this thing. Its the reason I can play since the error code I was getting is a total crapshoot and even the internets didn't have a clear way to fix it (most likely a corrupted video file or install). Load your Rishi assets!!! I can't stress that enough. On my rig, Rishi runs like crap but after I loaded the assets using this tool it ran much better.

What settings are you guys using to make it run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenzarin Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Try this if you're getting the C6 error: Go in to the folder where you have installed SWTOR Unleashed and delete SwtorUnleashed.xml (or move it elsewhere if you're paranoid ). You'll need to set up your options again in SWTOR Unleashed when you restart it. This worked for me and I was getting C6 errors after SoR installed. It looks like because some of the asset files have changed size post-patch SWTOR Unleashed got confused about how much space it needs to make on the ramdrive, causing there to be no room for the DiskCacheArena file (which causes the C6 error) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confirmed by the creator as the best first fix, too. Edited December 6, 2014 by PBoba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnkeys Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Seem to have a related issue, but neither the client, nor unleashed is throwing an error. The client simply crashes to desktop. I'm able to load up to the character selection screen. Tabbing out, I've about 50meg free in the ram drive, which fills fast if I try loading again. Deleted SwtorUnleashed.xml. Noted my configs were still selected loading unleashed. (Is there a 2nd config file?) Also noted that unleashed did not create a new SwtorUnleashed.xml file on subsequent runs. Client was updated in retail mode. Typical Ramdrive was about 7gig. Selecting the same assets, (FX & Dynamic), only 6.5gig is reserved for the Ramdrive. 1.4gig of that remains before I click play, 50meg at character selection. Suggestions welcome. I really miss unleashed. Win7 Pro x64 16Gig ram 3.6ghz (8-core) CPU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emberz Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Anyone know if this helps load times on strongholds. If so what settings do I use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jboath Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 from what im reading, using this with 4g of ram would be unwise, but when i do upgrade to 8 or 16 then give this a shot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyCakeLight Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 (edited) EDIT: I've managed to fix some things. Also, I need to get a real pc, not this stupid alienware laptop. Edited December 13, 2014 by SkyCakeLight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDragnet Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 from what im reading, using this with 4g of ram would be unwise, but when i do upgrade to 8 or 16 then give this a shot? To be honest, even before SoR I was already finding that with 8GB I couldn't load all the dynamics and fx so I don't think it really is worthwhile with less than 16GB right now sadly.

Icykill_ Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Before I set up unleashed... Does anyone know if this is fixing the current "combat/ability activation" lag since 3.0 released...

Jhazy Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 I did everything fine, I only have Local and FX checked, using only 600~ megs on my 8 gigs of ram, i have plenty of space but keep getting a "NodeSpecCache - Unable to open NodeSpecCache for writing." Error. When I run retail it works fine, when I run unleashed using those parts of the thing, locak and FX only, using 600 of my 8 gigs of ram it gives me this error. Is there a solution?

OwenBrooks Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 (edited) See as per the download link - http://www.metasharp.net/index.php/SWTOR_Unleashed Definitely delete the XML file if you had a previous version, or try deleting it in case the config is wrong and is causing the NodeSpecCache error, worth a try. 3.3.5 : Raised the space for DiskCacheArena to 1.1GB (from 1.025GB), Added 1MB for each asset checked, Upgraded a few Imdisk files to latest. PLEASE DELETE YOUR XML CONFIG FILE BEFORE USING THE NEW VERSION (to prevents ramdrive sizes bugs due to those changes) Kaspersky Pure has been known to cause NodeSpecCache if relevant Edited December 25, 2014 by OwenBrooks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jhazy Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 (edited) I don't know where my xml config file is located. I wouldn't know where to really look for that Edit: I deleted XML Files in the folder containing my Unleashed, and when I made my ram drive it worked fine this time, no Node error, when I quit swtor I had to re-delete the xml file before launching unleashed via the unleashed launcher again. I can do this, but it's kind of annoying. Edited December 26, 2014 by Jhazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jhazy Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Now it doesn't work when i delete the XML file at all, not sure but I keep getting the node thing again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moriam Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 For some reason my client is updating every day after installing swtor unleashed. Is anyone experiencing this? I find it hard to believe we are getting this many updates. This does not seem to matter if I run the client in either retail or swtor unleashed mode.
