while the PC itself is only 2 1/2 year old. this 2TO SSHD Seagate is now 8 years old.
This takes place on the disk but the game loads quicker. and unactivate the ones you just used and will not use for sure the next times. just activate the mod or mods you're using regularly at a precise time. make a less heavy install by using a Mod Manager as JSGME or OVGME. GTR2 loads as quickly as with it.ĮDIT: the best solution is. Using the affinity settings included in the Crew Chief plugin but without it. I have another install ( a bit less heavy ) on a 256GB SSD ( the one I used for OS and softwares in my previous PC ) and GTR2 always loads very quickly on this one. more than 2 minutes and the next time: 30 seconds. the difference between a 1st GTR2 launch in this case is huge compared to the next time you will use it ( without having launched another sim ). so that the previous used sim will not keep its load advantage this one will be the one that will be used the next time for this sim. This SS part is not very huge, so each time you load another Sim. As all my sims are installed on this SSHD, all of them use the SS part to load. and one thing I'm now sure of, nearly only the use of a SSD helps to have GTR2 loading quickly.
I always use a Process Manager, have a very modded and very heavy install on a SSHD. I doubt that those Process managers ( Lasso or Bill2's or ? ) might help in this case.
