Slow loading with classic theme...

przy · 10-08-2008, 01:59 AM

For some reason, with the new patch, the classic theme takes like forever to load now. I switched to the modern theme and it loaded up fast to the main screen, but with the classic, not so fast. Anybody else have this happen?

Edit: Even with the blue theme, it is very slow loading, even some moments of not responding. This never happened with previous versions. Just thought I would let you know.

Just during the first time you switch to the new skin, or every time you open the game?

Every time so far. It does eventually open up to the main screen where you can choose to continue a game or load a new one etc... But is takes around a minute or so to load now when using the classic or blue theme. In the default modern theme it loads up within a couple seconds like all the themes for me used to do prior to this version.

Can you delete the skin.bin file from the skins directory for the skins you're having problems with (a quick Windows search should locate the relevant folders) and then let the game rebuild them and see if that speeds it up?
