Boothy0910 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 How much influence does the amount of additional graphics you have loaded have on the speed of the game? I've got CFM skin, metallic logos, cut-out face pack, DNK backgrounds and a dozen leagues worth of kits. Graphics folder is 19 gig, laptop has an i3 processor with 4GB ram. Should I be surprised that the game runs slow? What mods (if any) have more effect on speed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortiis7 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 it doesn't run slower Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I takes time to load up new graphics, but once installed (assuming you have 'use caching to decrease loading times' ticked in Preferences), your graphics don't affect game speed at all. It's extra league files and the number of leagues and players loaded that affects processing speed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boothy0910 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 @phompenhandy Thanks for the clarification. 'Use caching...' is ticked, and only got a handful of leagues and about 15k players loaded. Looks like I need to head to the 'does this laptop run FM' thread, and research a replacement!!

KUBI Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 It's the RAM that could make a difference. FM running on 64bit is using 3 to 4 GB of RAM - if available. With 4 GB at least one are used for the system and system apps. More RAM can improve the speed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
