Neovalen Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Show Race Menu Precache Killer This one looks like a gem for anyone who uses lots of body/hair/warpaint mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haelfix Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Hmm, I don't understand what this is actually doing at the nuts and bolts level. Â And why can't the same thing be used in other scenarios (precaching eg lods etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamImm Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Looks nice, but I'd like to see what it's doing under the hood. Sure, I could try decompiling it, but that's not the best way to go about it. Also, wondering if this would still work under Skyrim 1.9, or if it needs to be updated (like ShadeMe's skse plugins) But yea, guess this means you can add back ApachiHair into your guide, Neovalen.

Galahad Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Works like a charm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eberkain Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 My understanding is that in the vanilla game when you open the race menu the engine caches all the body part options in one swoop, and there must be a bug in the engine that causes a CTD if you have too many things getting cached at once. This simply removes the cache step and you load body part assets as you make the changes on the character sliders. I notice a microscopic delay when changing hair, etc, which could impact lower end systems more dramatically. I would imagine it gets rolled into the main file on a future release, there is no real reason to not install it, prevents crashes and works perfectly.

WilliamImm Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 However, RaceMenu now has a optional file that does basically the same thing, so this isn't really needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statmonster Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Yes. I'm not aware of any difference between the two of them. In one sense it's a shame that Kapaer, who figured out how to do this will, see his mod ignored as everyone (myself included) adopts the Race Menu optional for its slightly greater convenience.

eberkain Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 My complete mistake, I thought this was pointing to the optional file on the race menu. :) I'm assuming that one isn't suggesting in the STEP install because STEP doesn't really use any hair packs or the like.

statmonster Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Interesting point that its not really needed if you don't use hair mods, etc.  However it is very useful, if not quite required, if you do start using these.  Given that many if not most people do add such mods, or at least experiment with them, it would be a good idea to at least point out that it should be installed if you add these mods or start experiencing CTDs when using the Race Menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
