If you SLEEP your PC and resume it later, this game cache is intact. PSO compilation.ĪFTER that first boot, the game will always launch and load at least 5 times faster, because it has already pre-compiled the shader/lightmap cache already. This is an old school side effect in Unreal Engine 3 and 4. It is running a shader/lighting compilation during the 'fresh' launch of the game. Installing KF2 to a Steam Library drive that is a fast SSD will make a HUGE difference to all loading, including boot up and map loads.įurther, you must remember this key detail:Īny and all FIRST TIME boots of KF2 after you have restarted or shut down your PC will be longer. I regret to necro this further, but let's reiterate: just look up "Optimize Drives" and it should direct you to the built in windows app for it. Try it! smart defrag 6 comes with a lot of bloatware, wouldnt reccomend.

Try it! :47_thumb_up: smart defrag 6 comes with a lot of bloatware, wouldnt reccomend. Smart Defrag 6 is really good for the people that care about keeping their system functional at peak performance (i believe it also has trimming optimization option for SSD users too). When you'll wake up computer won't be running and all your drives will be defragmented. Which is essentially automatic mode, application is going to pick the right defragmentation method for you.Īnd before going to bed, select all your drives in application, click on Smart Defrag, then tick off "shut down after defrag" option in right corner and there you go, computer is going to turn off after defragmentation is done, turn off your monitor and go to sleep. Of course you can select a specific method or you can just use "Smart defrag" option You have your traditional/slow defrag and prioritization method, you have a different method for defragmenting large, singular files, then there's another one called "fast defrag" which defragments only what is needed and there are some other additional methods such as defragment and optimize (not sure what it does). Very good application, because it has multiple defragmentation methods to offer. I would personally recommend Smart Defrag 6 by IObit. +1ĭefragmenting your entire storage device AT LEAST once a month should be a mandatory task for any hard drive user. If you can't afford a SSD at the moment, then i recommand you to look after your HDD and defrag it if necessary.
I now load into KF2 in only 2-3 minutes instead of 4.
