i only have the stutter/lag when the game 1st loads a map and comes into contact with the enemy. otherwise i'm good throughout. don't need this right?

Good job on the new LemonT. Tried and works.

Thumbs up.

Nope, if it only lags a bit during the initial map load then it's not really necessary.
The fix is for those that notice very bad game load/jerking (especially during fights) that may kill you

Hardcore players will know this pain even more

i dont have a 16GB thumb drive.. but i do have multiple 4GB thumb drive....
i wonder if i spread all the mpq files onto different thumb drives.. and create symbolic links for each mpq file... will it further improve the performance?

Doubt that'll work with Windows 7 itself (it could be possible with other application but I don't know )
This was the error when you attempt to link the same source to 2 different destination folder (in your case USB)



TLDR: 1 folder -> 1 USB (destination) only

adding this into the main d3 thread

btw i wanna ask.
if i link it to my usb, and i forgot my usb with my laptop.
can i still play d3 without it?

Yes but u got to go to find the link file, delete then rename the ori mpq folder back.

Remake the link when u have the usb again.

Not sure if u can rename/move the link file itself.

TS, i got msg "Junction created for F:\Diablo III\Data_D3\PC\MPQs <<==>> i:\MPQs"

mean fail and success lol?

correct or not?

good to go

thx!

here's the cnet link btw.
64 bit one

no... you misunderstood what i meant... i meant symbolic link for individual files.

I don't want to waste money to buy yet another thumb drive... so this is what i did...

Instead of linking the folder directory i had created soft link for all the major mpq files onto 2 different thumb drive.

My poor man solution:

On drive N: ( 4GB only )
symbolic link created for d:\games\Diablo III\Data_D3\PC\MPQs\ClientData.mpq <<===>> n:\ClientData.mpq
symbolic link created for d:\games\Diablo III\Data_D3\PC\MPQs\enUS_Cutscene.mpq <<===>> n:\enUS_Cutscene.mpq

On drive M: ( 4GB only )
symbolic link created for d:\games\Diablo III\Data_D3\PC\MPQs\enUS_Audio.mpq <<===>> m:\enUS_Audio.mpq
symbolic link created for d:\games\Diablo III\Data_D3\PC\MPQs\Sound.mpq <<===>> m:\Sound.mpq
symbolic link created for d:\games\Diablo III\Data_D3\PC\MPQs\Texture.mpq <<===>> m:\Texture.mpq


I left other files intact since there is not enough space to link the smaller files into both thumb drive.

It worked unexpectedly well though....

Perhaps it will work even better if you have 3rd drive to link those smaller files and the sub-folders.


this is my folder layout:

i tried already.
used my thumbdrive very slow worrr.
or maybe my usb's cacat. oh well no choice for me but to wait for blizz to fix it tried the windows mode doesnt work too

NTFS, because you cant store some MPQ files on FAT32

looks like Kingston DT Ultimate 3.0 is the best value for money, any other suggestions?
