Description

Update May 22, 2021

Support for the new DLCs.

Update Oct 31, 2020

Support for the Chinese language. My thanks to @Yuuki for the translation!

Update Sep 23, 2019

New Safe Mode loading options.
Read here.

Update Jul 28, 2019

New feature: Optimize thumbnails (in mod options, enabled by default)

optimizes the memory usage of asset thumbnail and tooltip textures
this option saves about 1.5GB of memory for each 1000 assets
also speeds up custom asset loading
if you use the Find It! mod you'll see less memory saved because Find It creates some textures.

This mod displays information on the loading screen and adds new options:

Load used assets: automatically loads the assets that are used in your city, no matter if they are enabled or not.
Share textures / materials / meshes: Assets from the same author often contain the same resources but the game does not care and loads identical copies. These options replace such copies by references, saving RAM.
Prefab skipping: you can skip vanilla buildings, vehicles and props to save RAM. Read here.
The mod contains an optimized custom asset loader that is significantly faster than the built-in loader.
Optional HTML reports (Assets Report & Assets Browser) are also available.
For additional features, see the figures above.

wait the new plaza fix is no good for save games @85 ?

The item has become incompatible with the game, I cannot play. Wasted money on cities skylines and no fix to it. Nice.

I'm sure I'm not the first, but I want to just leave a note and say, "THANK YOU!!"

Saving RAM and, more important to me today, allowing me to easily find and subscribe to missing assets, has been huge to me. I can't believe a game as old as CS is still so fun - and the mods are a huge part of that.

Great work!

no just afk

@Danio4 Did Thale5 die?

danio4 Oct 16, 2022 @ 2:27pm

RIP thale5 🙏

I used this and it worked fine. Everyone told me to download the newer 0.7 version, and now the wait time has tripled for new games whilst I can't open old games.

tomas_crauwels Oct 5, 2022 @ 2:57pm

The loading screen mod worked, with this new "fix" 0.7 my game is totally ruined and I can't even play my old saves anymore. This sucks big time
