MCM -- Pause Menu issue

Recommended Posts

I've recently installed the Mod Configuration Manager in an attempt to use the NVSE Flashlight. As per the mod's recommendation, I use the Unified HUD project. The biggest issue I get is that the Pause Menu takes up to 5 seconds to load after pressing Escape.

 

I get a message from MCM telling me the following:

 


The mod configuration menu has detected multiple menu entries for MCM. The mod will still function properly, but the pause menu loading time will be increased.
See the faq of the read me for the solution.

 

Now, I've read the FAQ and, as I understand it, I need to get rid of either Data\menus\options\start_menu.xml or Data\menus\prefabs\includes_StartMenu.xml. I take this to mean that I delete the file. The problem is, if I delete the former, I get a message from MCM telling me it doesn't work. If I delete the latter, the game CtDs on startup. Doing nothing, as I said, results in an unacceptably long load time for the pause menu.

 

What, exactly, should I do to reduce that load time?

 

Noteworthy tech stuff:

 

Flashlight NVSE is the only mod I have that uses MCM, and installing MCM without Flashlight results in a smaller, but still notceable delay between button press and menu coming up (probably about a half second to a second).

 

Running Flashlight without Unified HUD results in a similarly small delay, though upon entering the MCM menu for the flashlight, I get a message saying it can't find the HUD file and says that if I'm using iHud, I might need to update that (I'm not using it).

It doesn't tell you to delete any file, it tells you to delete entries within those files. :smile:

 

Relevant section of the readme:

 

You need to remove any duplicate <include src="MCM\MCM.xml"/> lines. There can be only one in either Data\menus\options\start_menu.xml or Data\menus\prefabs\includes_StartMenu.xml

 

The problem is that you have multiple lines of "<include src="MCM\MCM.xml"/>" in those two files. The line may only appear once in either file, so you need to remove duplicates. Mine is in "Data\menus\prefabs\includes_StartMenu.xml".
