Analysis of RT senario loading times
Tanks a Lot replied to Hpt. Lisse's topic in Combat Mission Red Thunder
Unfortunately 3D model quality doesn't seem to effect loading times at all. Sgt Joch is right, the texture quality setting has a pretty big effect. I need the highest quality setting when working on mods, and I need to load the game many, many times. -

Thanks Hpt. Lisse. Juju made a more comprehensive semi-transparent tree mod with more options, you might want to check it out. -

I guess that settles it, which means I'm screwed. I wish I knew the game had these issues before I bought my AMD card, because I'm not buying a new video card for one game. -

If the load times seriously improve with his switch to Nvidia, then there must be some kind of issue with ATI boards/drivers. Hopefully this will be taken care of at some point. -

The game is installed on a Samsung 830 SSD in Windows 7 64, so my hardware should load the game without much trouble. You might be right about a driver issue, since the video card was the only change in my system, and it's a much faster card than what I had before. Long loading times might not be that big of an issue for most people, since they probably don't load games all that often. Being someone who mods way more than he plays, I need to load scenarios dozens of times a day. It's starting to really take the fun out of it having to wait so much. -

It looks like you were having slow loading times in post 4. Have things improved? Or are you talking about in-game play? I'm happy with the performance once the game starts, it's only the loading times that are lousy. I assume that's Hpt. Lisse's main problem too. -

I went from an Nvidia Geforce 560GTX TI-448 to an AMD Radeon R9 280. -

I'm starting to wonder if this issue is video card related. I recently "upgraded" my video card from Nvidia to AMD, and the loading times are quite a bit worse now. That's the only thing I changed. Having looked through a bunch of threads about slow loading times, it seems most, if not all complaints were from people using AMD GPUs. -
Repository - couple of questions
Tanks a Lot replied to Kieme(ITA)'s topic in CM Red Thunder Maps and Mods
It looks like it's still 75MB: http://www.battlefront.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1266&Itemid=314 I've never read anything about a limit for the number of uploads. -
[WIP] Umlaut´s Factory Project
Tanks a Lot replied to umlaut's topic in CM Red Thunder Maps and Mods
Just amazing creativity by Umlaut on this one, I never would have thought of doing some of the things he's done. -
[WIP] Juju's 'The railyard at Pitrovsk' project
Tanks a Lot replied to Juju's topic in CM Red Thunder Maps and Mods
All right! I thought these were supposed to be screenshots, not photographs. Lovely little town you've created. The usual Juju quality is all over this one. Great marriage of mods, map and scenario, and I agree about Umlaut's rail car, brilliant. -

Thanks Fuser. When I eventually get around to actually playing the game, I'll finally get to see your great tank and vehicle mods in action. -

I'm basically done with my first big barn, I hope it looks okay: -

They will get used, but the scenario designer has to specifically select the renamed ones when making the map, at least I think that's how it works. -

Lol, and thanks for the nice comments you've made through the years. I made some stinkers early on when I didn't know what the heck I was doing, like the red-painted American barn, not realizing barns look a little different in Europe. Oops. -

[RELEASED] Kieme's HD Modular Buildings Version2
Tanks a Lot replied to Kieme(ITA)'s topic in CM Red Thunder Maps and Mods
Nice work Kieme, but it looks like you included my small barn in your independent buildings big pack. -

Tanks a Lot replied to Tanks a Lot's topic in CM Red Thunder Maps and Mods
I probably won't release one big pack, because the file size would be huge. Maybe a few packs, it depends on how many buildings I end up doing. -

Thanks for the comments, the barn is up at our favorite place: http://cmmods.greenasjade.net/mods/5289/details -
It looks like I'm back doing buildings again. How many? I can't say right now, health and other matters could affect how many I finish. Since they are from-scratch, they take a lot of time and effort, so don't expect them very often. I'll probably upload them as I finish this time, rather than waiting many, many months, like last time. I've only finished one so far and it is higher resolution than stock, hopefully the rest will be too. I still have a little more to do, but it should be available within a day or two. Here's a preview of the one I mentioned, a small barn: Here's a comparison with one of the stock barns: I'll update this thread as I finish more of them, hope you like it.

Really nice work again. I know they aren't easy to do, but you made 'em look great.
