Long loading time Alpha 6 (532) [SOLVED]

[Flemmi]

Hello again, i know i post this bug often, but in every version it reapears for me.
This bug appears in every version i play but currently it is about version 532.

It is about the long loading time bug.
I made a little test and messured the time it takes for all the actions I could thing of that are effected.
Here is a list (done in the shown order)

Rimworld
Start - 27sec
Open Modmenu - 6sec; opening it again without restarting the game is instantaneously.
close Modmenu - 25.7sec tested twice
change language - 25.7sec tested twice

Rimworld with 1 mod (blasting charges Mod for test)
Addmod - making a tick next to a mod is instantaneously
closemodmenu - 25.7sec
(re)start - 27sec
Open Modmenu 6sec
remove mod - removing the tick is instantaneously
close Modmenu - 25.7sec


I also made another deep profile log and attached it to the post.
I created the file by activating deep profile log. Than i exit the game, start it, open modmenu, close modmenu, changed laguages to english and cloes the game.

I added Project Armory and Medbed 1.4 as mods but they made the loading time to enter and leave the mod menu much longer.

Thanks, I'll look at the log. Much appreciated info.

Yeah, this is effecting me too. Oddly, it only effects my main desktop computer which is an AMD Phenom II X6 1090T with 8GB RAM and an GeForce GTX 580 but not my Dell Laptop with Windows 8. The game takes a little while to load normally but when I add mods I suspect it takes between 10-30 minutes. I generally launch it, go watch a TV show, and then come back. Its terrible and I do enjoy playing it more with mods.

When I check the task-manager it shows that the RAM usage is REALLY low (around 70MB) and then slowly raises. I've tried moving the game directory and playing with different administrator or compatibility settings with no improved results.

Again, the game loads almost instantly on the laptop, why is it loading so slowly on the desktop?

As for mods, I'm just using Armory mod for the extra weapons. And nothing is changed on my laptop, they're copies of each other. I actually launch the game on both computers, play on the laptop until it finally loads on the desktop, and then continue the savegame on the desktop. Its quite a pain!

Anyways, please, please, please, fix this!

I maybe found a solution. Somwhere deep in the Forum Tynan asked somebody to uninstall any VPN services, so i uninstalled Tungle and Hamachi.

I almost got a Heart attack as Hamachi was uninstalled and seconds after that Rimworld suddenly started ( I was waiting for 30 minutes to this point)

And that`s it. Game is running smoth and starts in seconds now since Hamachi is deleted.

I had followed this advice too. but i had no luck with it.

I found a Solution, for me.

It seems that the VPN thing seems right, i had an old connection profile (see in the picture) that was made by hamatchi but not removed when i deinstalled hamatchi. I removed it. (then cleand my regestry and temp files just to be save) and the bug was gone.

to remove such a connection you need to deaktivate it first. maybe deactivating is enough to solve the bug, I don't know but it could be.
