Load Cache Memory Size not working except 1gb (default)

[dmist24]

Anyone having an issue with the game not loading with 2gb,3gb,4gb "load cache" for steam english with max setting? It only shows a black screen with the cursor movable, no splash intro screen or loading screen. but 1gb works fine - I can play the game.

I am testing this on a ryzen 3700x 32gb ddr4 ram, 3060ti 8gb vcard
tried already rebooting, clearing cache, turning on/off steam app. Nothing, it only works with the default 1gb.

They said putting to higher memory will make the game load faster. I only discovered this feature just now (or was it just added)

Anybody has same issue? or was able to solve the issue?

I'm 2 for 2 getting 4gb to work. Haven't tried the others.

Edited to add: I have 128gb ram installed. Patty didn't get a birthday suit that year.

4gb seems to work fine for me, and it does improve loading times, loading screen for match is less than 2 seconds with it.

Even between 1 match and another playing the festival? I tried 4gb but it didn't changed so much...
I have to say the game was lagging when I played previously.
(I have 16gb of ram)

2gb works for me and improvement is noticeable. 3gb and 4gb options just show black screen. I have 16gb total.

I still have from 30 to 40 seconds of loading screen between 1 match and the next. (using 2gb now)

Keep in mind that a Rivals event makes match load times unpredictable due to sometimes needing to download the other player's unique outfit combinations and malfunctions.

Setting load cache from 1 to 4 GB definitely improves my loading times, but not as much as i hoped for. For 1 game cycle (the moment i press play button until i press play button again) i usually need 50 seconds. i can cut this down to 40 seconds now, but i hoped for a bit more. But definitely an improvement.

I'll test it again during next event, I mean if you autoplay the same match it should not load almost anything!

[master_c86]

I tested it again on the daily games i need for the daily missions and boy, this loads so fast now. 2-3 seconds max. for a game. So yeah, i think what jmalrey said is true. Once this pvp event is over, the event missions will load pretty fast as well. I'm looking forward to it.

still nothing on my end, higher than 1gb is not working. Do you think it has to do with my ISP (internet service provider)? or just my desktop pc?

what is your video card? your 16gb is your ram right?

oh by luck, 2gb works now for me now! Let me try and try other options (but im still having difficulty earlier with those 3gb and 4gb options).

Yes total ram 16gb. I play on windowed mode 720p. Haven't got it to work above 2gb option. I'll try fullscreen option with higher cache settings maybe it will work. Maybe I should use clear cache option but that's painful especially during rival festival, loading outfits from other players every match will be a hassle.

I also played windowed and even at 540p, with 32gb memory ram, and 8gb video ram.

So far yesterday only 1gb worked, now 2gb worked, but higher than that, its only black screen but with mouse pointer in it.

I do no thing clearing cache will do the trick, but will do it later too after the ranking.

I only notice the load cache option when tuning the setting to bare minimum. Game still crash after a few 49x autoplay though.

The game did load quicker after the patch.
I did adjust to 2GB but can't feel any change, so i didn't went further and set it back to 1GB.

16GB RAM, game files on SSD.
I wonder if those on a HDD experience a greater difference in load time with the load cache.

Oh, and when my display goes black due to lack of inputs, the game seems like load slower as the sound que from the Tension Burst is delayed a little longer

I can confirm I can play on 3-4GB cache with 16GB RAM on my system. My CPU Ryzen 3600 VGA GTX 1060 3GB. But I didn't maximize settings. I turn off SSAO and AA. Fur and shadows set to medium. But shadow was overridden by 3dGOTO so doesn't matter.

Maybe tone down your settings and try increase that cache. The change is swifter to and fro loading screen. The rivals and arena however still got latency due acquiring rivals data.
