Ackter Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Yes, it would improve save and load speed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
postal postie Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 i thought compressing a save would actually extend loading speeds if compressed is ticked then it doesn't take up so much space on your harddrive but it takes longer to load. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pangaea Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 That's what I thought too. Sounds strange it both takes less space and is faster to load. Winnie-the-Pooh rule? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazzerphuk Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I think some are mistaken here. With compressed saves on, you save a lot of disk space but sacrifice load and save times quite a bit. Uncompressed means use of more disk space but much faster saving and loading. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saving doesn't take so long for me really. But it's all a personal thing. If you find it takes too long, too often, then sure - go for it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
