Total War Launcher is sluggish.

[Charun Drakarus]

Hello. I've found myself recently having an issue with the launcher in that it's become incredibly slow. All "buttons" such as the play, mod manager, and even enabling/disabling mods oft take 5-10 seconds to respond and I have no idea what may be causing it. I just thought I'd ask here to see if anyone else has ever encountered and, preferably, solved this issue. It has become horrendously tedious to manage my mods now, ha.

Thanks in advance!

I actually experience this aswell. But I thought it's due to enabling/disabling ~50 mods at once for testing purposes...if this is actually happening when doing smaller actions, I'd like a solution, too.

I guess we'll never know. Heh.

It stopped after that one time for me anyways :P

It happens when a mod is updating.

Not related to a mod updating for me. It's constant, has been for a week or two now. A minute bother, but a bother nonetheless. Especially when I'm moving through to enable and disable mods.
Edit: By enabling and disabling mods, I mean a single mod. Each time I click the little tick box, I have to wait 5-10 seconds for it to register. Longer when I click one of the side arrows to move to the next couple mods.

Same issue its annoying but its not that bad, you get use to it pretty quickly.

I have no such an issue but I would rather suffered slow launcher than low performance.

same issue here since steam patched and CA released ROME II DLC. my game freezes frequently for about 5-10 seconds (the launcher AND ingame), unable to play multiplayer anymore. at the same time steam also freezes (steam bootstrapper client) for the same amount of time. it seems that there is a conflict caused by CA. i tested all games on steam i have, but no game caused any issue. my internet connection is perfect and my graphic card is above needed spec (could play TW:W1 and TW:W2 without problems so far).

when i start the launcher in offline mod, the game doesn't freeze, steam doesn't freeze. everything runs perfect.

i repaired files, reinstalled the game...and all the other cool stuff to solve technical issues by my own.
would be interesting to know, if other players from other Total War games have same problems with the launcher and the game.

The launcher is only sluggish when swapping mod "pages" - otherwise it's fine for me.
You could try using KMM and see if that fixes your issues.

It's also on the workshop, but i reccomend using the github download, as the workshop version is just for visibility, as it's location would be annoying, and it's not supposed to be enabled - tough the mod page will tell you so.

I find it obnoxiously slow to load the promotional stuff about Rome 2 which I have absolutely no intent on buying, and I know about the DLCs for WH2, but beyond that the launcher runs fine for me.

Wish there was a way to bypass it that actually worked.
