how do I turn off asset warmup

[Ducky]

my silly ass waited 49 minutes for this dumb asset warmup and I crashed....I made a mistake with my money unless I can turn it off

Unless you like crashing some more.

wow.

At least one piece of hardware on your PC must be incredibly slow for it to take that long. On an average 2023 gaming PC it should take about 60 to 90 seconds to load into the game in a few minutes to load into servers. Perhaps you don't have the game installed on an SSD? Or some other hardware bottleneck.

Unless you have an SSD prepare for long loading times.

Naw this just started for me also, I mean the game never loaded fast for me but damn the same thing just happened to me like a half hour to load then boom.

Just crashed my pc for the first time ever (as in it's never crashed before)
Clean new download, I was gonna check out the game after a very long time
Froze my PC and after awhile it blue screened and restarted with issues on alot of other software from the abrupt cut off

What did they do to the game??
Only played yesterday but it takes a full YT video to finally load in
It used to be seconds. Oh n I put my GFX settings to lowest since yesterday which was my first day back, but doesnt affect this loading

Is there a way to have it load AFTER getting into a game?
And mayb only load the ones I need/see as I need them

Or is there some way to save the load instead of starting over everytime I boot up Rust?

Fwiw, the slow loading is a Unity issue, and not isolated to just RUST. Pretty much every Unity game I've played takes a long time (relative to other, non-unity games) to load.

After diving for awhile into this I found that out
Thanks for the correction, bcuz Unity has dragged down enough games and devs as it is
Never thought I'd say this but even Unreal would be better, pretty sure its free right?

I just dont understand why it takes almost an HOUR to "warm up" assets, and every other game loads almost instantly. This has to be a Rust issue.

I gave up a long time ago

1 hr seshions are free as many relogs as you want
8 hr seshion are 9.99 Usd with relog as much as you want
best way to play if you have a harde drive and not a SSD

Install an SSD, preferably a m.2 and that will go away.

I think it's because of what I mentioned before, if you go down the rabbit hole some more
Apparently Unity just doesnt make use of CPU which is in charge of compiling and processing (building the seed)
And instead throws it all on RAM which is primarily for fetching data (getting the seed)

Even longer ago, it used to be seconds
I think it used to keep loading in the background on low prio while you were in the game
I guess they thought it would b better to load it all before your in -no in-game loading lag
But I dont see why it has to reload from new everytime instead of using and updating previous data

Unless I missed something this is wrong
SSD accesses data faster, but in this case it doesnt matter since it's all dumped onto the RAM which is inferior to CPU when processing it

Same as above
Upgrading RAM is the only solution but we shouldnt have to
Since after loading, mem stays around 6gb in-game (for me, n obv goes up in fights)

It's that it keeps capping out during load that feels like your PC is ruined, freezes and lead to BSOD
Which is why upgrading RAM is good but that's just a duct-tape fix for a flawed memory usage system/code (aka memory leak)

[VikingDork]

Wait, what? You have to update your hardware to keep in line with current technology? NO WAY!

Again, game only uses 6-8GB while ingame for me
But it caps out when loading in (asset warmup) -which causes problems for PC
This is bad memory management

I singled out the info for you as you may have been overwhelmed
If you can't understand it, then there's nothing else I can do to help you do so

Took you that many words to say you play on a toaster

This guy can't b real lol
I'm playing Rust rn on build server at steady 6GB
But it went over 11GB loading in

Edit: They deleted what they said, mayb they finally caught up
