Loading the game faster? THE SIMS 2
rosaliaofficial:
Is there anything that carries the game faster?
I have 24GB of custom objects and takes almost 30 minutes to load.
I have 1GB in video and HD 500GB card.
But there is a trick to open the game quickly without waiting so long ?? 1sw2 1sw2

30 minutes for 24 GB sounds about right and is comparable to what it takes my game to start up with about the same amount of downloads.
TS2's load time is quite dependent on how much Custom Content you have. It loads every piece of CC into memory at startup. While there are some things that could be done such as removing some duplicate folders and language files for languages not used for your game, with that amount of custom content, those deletions won't make much difference in your load time.
A faster computer (faster processors) would load the content faster. Adding memory to your computer might cut down on the amount of paging the computer has to do to keep track of all the CC as it loads it and could also improve load time.
Since the game loads all CC at startup whether it will be used or not, you could go through your downloads folder and remove CC that you don't ever use - old skintones, makeup, clothing, etc to make your Downloads folder smaller and thus improve your load time. If you have particular themed neighborhoods that you play, you could separate out the CC used only in those hoods and only add them back to your Downloads folder when you know you'll be playing those hoods.
Personally, I start up the game and then do a few things around the house while I wait for it to load.

Your loading time actually sounds about right, maybe even a bit faster than usual, for that amount of CC. I don't see what you're complaining about - I had loading times beyond 3 hours with around 12-14 GB of CC on my old laptop...
retrotrut:
24 GB takes 30 Minutes to load????
I have around 24.5 GB and it takes about an hour to an hour and a half. Please tell me what did you do to increase the loading time to 30 minutes.
Thanks

retrotrut, it all depends on your computer. A computer with a faster processor and more RAM will load the game faster than a computer with less. Even having more empty hard drive space will make a bit of a difference.
