Extremely long loading screens lately.

Recommended Posts

Well i have been playing skyrim on my current pc for a long time now.

I have a pretty good gaming pc and have always been able to run skyrim at maxed out and using an enb.

My quicksaves and loading screens have always been extremely fast.

 

But for quite a while i have noticed my quicksaves started to take like 5 to 10 seconds or even longer.

The loading screens take as much time as on the console versions.

It also seems that older saves when my character was not that high of a level and hasnt made too many progress saves in an instant.

Now my character is level 64 i have completed nearly everything and wanted to explore the dungeons i haven't yet but i couldn't find a way to fix the long loadings screens.

So is it a thing that the loading screens will become longer by how many progress you have made.

 

I still haven't tried turning off my enb but disabling all my mods did not help a bit.

 

I have an intel core i7 4790 and no ssd.

It could be due to a couple things. Increased save size is the most likely, your saves are probably just so large from doing so much. I'd agree with the previous poster, use this save cleaner - http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/52363/?

 

Select "Fix Script Instances" and "Clean Havok Moved". Hopefully that'll reduce your save size and make it faster to load.

 

The second thing, it could be your hard drive. Try a defragmentation. It won't do any harm, and it could be the solution

-Make sure you have more than 35 fps during loading your saves or skyrim engine will slow it down.

-Have you checked your save size? It's normal to get slightly bigger over time, however huge increase over short period indicates you got bloat somewhere.

-SSD would help with cutting down on loading times, if you use a lot of mods. I remember it decreasing form 3min to 40sec when I switched to ssd for the first time.

This isn't true. If you turn on an FPS counter, it doesn't matter what your framerate is like in game, you could have enough power in your computer to push it to several hundred FPS. The loading screens are locked to 30 FPS. You can get 60 in game, but as soon as you go into a loading screen, it WILL go down to 30 FPS. I'm not sure where you heard otherwise.

Try it yourself.

I... What? I can't try it myself, the loading screens are engine-locked to 30 FPS. I physically cannot try it myself, no matter how powerful of a computer I have.

Please, if you don't believe me, read through this thread on Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/comments/2uqphd/loading_screen_fps_30/

Lots of people there discuss the fact that loading screens are locked at 30, and if they weren't, it would likely increase load time. Now, if you have proof otherwise, I'd love to see, but to the best of my knowledge, loading screens are, and always have been capped at 30.

Sorry for taking so long to reply to each of you.

After i put this thread up i quit playing skyrim for quite a while.

I tried the save script cleaner and it Made the quicksaves from like 30 seconds to 1 second. They were instant a time before they took ages but i cant really complain.

Thanks for all the help.
