Crashing when trying to load sprite intensive mods

[creature0411]

I'm currently playing the whole Pyanodons mod pack and am having issues with the game loading. It will get through to around 50%, and then crash. I suspect this is as the sprite loading system is not multi-threaded so is only running on one - out of eight - of my CPU's. To remedy this I tried booting it with steam forcing it to load low res textures and this helped, but rather a lot of the time -especially if I have a browser open- fails to load. I am running on a brand new top of the range pc so I didn't think I'd have performance issues and don't once I get into the game. Anyone got any suggestions?

No idea if it will help, but you can try changing the "Atlas size" in graphics settings. I think it's separate from texture resolution.

Number of threads used to load sprites is a setting in the config file. Default seems to be 32.

Code: Select all

max-sprite-loading-threads=32

You need to upload your log file from after a crash. It has important info like your computer specs and where the crash occured.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Can you attach a log file?
