Hi everyone. I started playing SC4 again but I'm having some issues. When I first start SC4 and go to load any city, even start a new one, it takes upwards of five minutes to load. No matter what region or city I select, it always takes at least a few minutes. When the city loads up, everything is fine. I don't experience any crashes or major issues. The kicker is that once I exit back to my region and load that city again or load any other city in that region or another, it loads up just fine. It only takes a long time to load when I first start up the game and load the first city. Per the sticky, here's my info:
-Running SC4 Rush Hour with the latest update plus the latest NAM update. No other extras are installed that I know of.
-Specs:
Asus G51vx Notebook
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
Intel Core 2 Duo P7350 @ 2.00 Ghz (2 CPUs), ~2.0 Ghz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260M
286 GB HD w/ 143 GB available
4096MB RAM
Page File: 1983MB used, 6204MB available
DirectX 11
What I've tried so far:
-Desktop shortcut is set up so I can run program as an admin, I have this in part of the shortcut "-d:directx -f -CPUcount:1" without quotes of course, I've tried running in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP 2 and 3 and Windows 2000.
-I have put the game down to lowest settings. I have also tried running under software rendering instead of hardware.
-I have NOT done a fresh install yet but will try tomorrow.
If I remember anything else, I'll drop another post in here. Thanks in advance!
