Sadly mod does NOT work, after whole game load's up, nothing shows up except usual Rim Log, and yes I've this Mod under core. If theres a specific funtion to turn it on or button that's not given in description then please add it there.

keep in mind this game is single-core, So its just always bound to be an un-optimized mess.

thank god you continued this mod. solved my HUGEST issue ever. bouta year ago when i had 32 gigs of ram, noticed rimworld was EATING IT, never figured out why. so i got more ram, continued to play, then stumbled onto a reddit post about this issue, with a link to the original mod.

This mod found my biggest issue ever. Apparel organizer. after removing it, 44 gigs went to 10. also loaded in a few seconds compared to a minute. also, this mod itself tried to kill my PC. no joke dude, i watched my memory usage climb and climb up to a 95% before i finally killed it. game also froze and became totally unresponsive. it did however go away after unsubbing from the mod. so while it works, it does have a huge issue.

yeah idk, I don't really use this mod anymore cause theres no point in doing so.

its not that accurate
it told me 32s to startup, and it took 18.
A pleasant surprise tho:steamhappy:

alrighty, thank you.
Michael  [author] 25 Mar @ 2:25am 
Not a modder, I just took this from GitHub.
Mr Potato 25 Mar @ 12:03am 
around 600 seconds is just not measured, i just want to know what it is seeing as its almost 2/3 of the loading time, please fix if at all possible
Michael  [author] 25 Feb @ 9:27am 
Reading recent comments of said mod, You can see multiple people expressing the mod being unusable. Don't just subscribe to random mods just because it says "Better loading" or "Faster Rimworld"......

@Kliff

BetterLoading is super buggy, broken & unusable. It can & will break your game & saves. Do not use it. It is on a 'Do not use' Google spreadsheet! [docs.google.com]
Kliff 25 Feb @ 5:49am 
Black screen after loading game on almost no mods (only better loading, harmony and graphics+)

This mod doesn't seem accurate at all, 80% of my 100s of 130s startup time was "Not measured". It's okay to give a quick glimpse but it's pretty useless at actually telling you what's causing issues during startup. I'd recommend using verbose logging in the developer options instead
Sir Rolin 11 Jan @ 7:01am 
@p20 hammerpoints, you can change which metric it uses in the mod options
@Ilunak, I have tried that and all the information I get is that "Main Thread" is taking a long time to load sometimes... it doesn't mention any mod.
llunak 16 Dec, 2024 @ 9:42am 
RimWorld actually has a built-in tool for finding out startup impact as a part of devmode, see https://www.reddit.com/r/RimWorld/comments/1hfczop/analysing_and_reducing_startup_time/ .

I had 1/3 of my partup time that this mod could not identify, and thanks to the built-in RimWorld functionality I easily found out what it was. So if this mod does not provide the information, I suggest using the devmode tool.
p20 hammerpoints 12 Dec, 2024 @ 12:33pm 
This mod doesn't really seem to measure the actual load time. It "accurately" measures the "mod" load times, had my own independent stopwatch that reflected that time in the process (the Better Loading mod), but that's about it and it's been that way for a while. I don't know what's going on with that. I know this is fork, and my criticisms go way back before this. Just putting this out there because I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong.
Michael  [author] 12 Nov, 2024 @ 2:50am 
I haven't used the mod in a while considering my load times are short. However mods like Combat Extended & Vanilla Expanded series take a long time to load due to their size of content.
Elynaih 12 Nov, 2024 @ 1:20am 
Thanks to both mod developer and mod editor. I just downloaded this mod, and as a result, I was able to clear some of the mods that were heavily charged. It takes about 734 seconds to load, and about 5/6 of them are "for reasons that are not directly related to the mod". Okay, let me work this out.... First of all, thank you.
Quilava 7 Nov, 2024 @ 10:04pm 
Look like this mod cant measure everything, the "not measure" part is the biggest one for everyone so far when im digging around. Some say SRTS, vanilla vehicle and SOS2 have a huge "not measure" time even tho it doesnt show on the mod it self cause ... it "not measure" lol. I tried and confirm tho mod indeed take lot more time to load

This mod still some what help, every time you install new mod, just remember the load time, if it increase a lot, then you know it the one causing trouble

All those who have a long launch, you can use RimPY or RimSort, which can convert textures to DDS format. The thing is that mods store textures in .png, which is very inefficient for large quantities, converting to .dds greatly reduces startup time. (In order for this to work properly you need Graphics Settings+) I play with 440~ mods that take up about 20gb of RAM. Startup takes 807 seconds. Also RocketMan helps a lot both in terms of game speed and startup.
Phantomz 22 Sep, 2024 @ 3:50pm 
2538 second load time is insane, christ. Maybe don't play with 417 mods...
Fp 14 Aug, 2024 @ 9:34pm 
use a ram disk lsdisk on sourceforge. keep in mind its just a fast temp folder so backup any files you need to keep
revolution 10 Aug, 2024 @ 7:21pm 
417mods,2538sec(42min) and not measured part takes 30min.what happened
my pc configuration: 3060,32ram,cpu5600
Is it due to the hard disk?my hard disk is not good
Michael  [author] 25 Jul, 2024 @ 6:57pm 
No idea. Sorry :(
slatsamer 25 Jul, 2024 @ 7:42am 
so what is the blue part? my startup time is 1000 seconds (16.6 minutes), blue part takes 750 seconds (12.5 min), so mod takes only 4 minutes
Michael  [author] 17 Jul, 2024 @ 1:35am 
Its a button on the main menu. It doesn't automatically open.
RaZoR 16 Jul, 2024 @ 8:42am 
not working. it doesn't show anything
Michael  [author] 23 Jun, 2024 @ 8:10am 
is the mod all the way ontop of load order
Avaricia 21 Jun, 2024 @ 2:33pm 
so what exactly is 'not measured' segment? in my modded game, and the provided example picture, it's the largest segment.
khagler 3 Jun, 2024 @ 7:56pm 
It turns out it's down to the OS. With 1.5 they broke something in the Mac version loading mods resulting in absurd loading times, but the Windows version loads at the same speed it always did.
Michael  [author] 3 Jun, 2024 @ 11:11am 
Whats your PC Specs? If you PC Can't handle loading stuff (e.g, Lacking in RAM) then that explains why you're having such load times.
khagler 3 Jun, 2024 @ 11:00am 
77. Disabling two of them (SRTS and SOS2) brought my load time down to "only" 40 minutes.
Michael  [author] 3 Jun, 2024 @ 9:58am 
how many mods do you have installed..
khagler 3 Jun, 2024 @ 9:47am 
That's what I was hoping this mod would tell me.
Michael  [author] 3 Jun, 2024 @ 8:32am 
how do you have a load time more of almost 1h30m :steamfacepalm:
khagler 3 Jun, 2024 @ 8:00am 
I put the mod at the top of the load order after Core, as directed. It's reporting a "not measured" time of 6127.5s. The absurdly long startup time has been there since 1.5, I was hoping to see what caused it.
Michael  [author] 9 May, 2024 @ 2:13pm 
modding games, especially rimworld increases loading time yeah. I personally don't go above 100 mods.
Deylendor 9 May, 2024 @ 11:25am 
As much as I could. Core, Harmony and Prepatcher are above it. StartupImpact works perfectly fine. The long startup is something I had to deal with since starting modding Rimworld. At least now I can measure it.
Michael  [author] 9 May, 2024 @ 10:53am 
did you put the mod at the top of your load order
Deylendor 9 May, 2024 @ 9:51am 
Startup time 304, nou measured 200. The F is happening
Proxyer 16 Apr, 2024 @ 10:59am 
Nice works! :steamthumbsup:

@Michael

Hi, would you like to update it to 1.5? I've finished the work to update to 1.5. Do you have a GitHub account, or should I just send it to you via an online drive?
Michael  [author] 11 Apr, 2024 @ 4:34pm 
I might be able to see if I can just "force" it to 1.5, As I just uploaded the code to Steam. I'm no coder sadly
Pos 4/5 11 Apr, 2024 @ 3:51pm 
Is this going to update to 1.5? I love it! Thanks for your work!
SENPAI!! [Only Two Genders] 27 Mar, 2024 @ 10:30am 
But Startup impact says every DLC loaded in 3-5 sec
SENPAI!! [Only Two Genders] 27 Mar, 2024 @ 10:30am 
Only DLC:cozybrawlhalla7:
Michael  [author] 27 Mar, 2024 @ 10:23am 
Do you have any mods in your files itself? (aka not Steam Workshop content)
SENPAI!! [Only Two Genders] 27 Mar, 2024 @ 10:22am
