Asset deletion question.

Hi all, So I have been disabling 100s if not 1000s of trains, rolling stock, scenery etc. from regions such as China, Hungary and UK to name a few in an attempt to help with stuttering issues at times when in surveyor and driving. I figured the lessening of objects would increase performance. My questions are 1. Does this effect anything potentially still enabled(such as shared dependencies) and 2. Is there a better way? Someone had mentioned allocating cache to the Sim but they did not know how this was done. Could someone shed some light?
 
Disable wont effect the sim, it just stops them from being available. Stuttering is only caused by the assets used in the route and is often linked to high density areas of the route. It is also caused by the graphics being always updated as you move around the route. It is possible to disable an asset that another asset needs and render that asset un-useable.

Hi James,

Please post your computer specs. Perhaps there are some things we can look at to help with the stutters such as disabling your antivirus from scanning your Trainz and userdata folders. I found this to be particularly helpful in that respect.

Allocating a cache to Trainz or rather I think it was actually changing the value of the cache in trainzoptions.txt is not possible now, think the person who posted that was thinking back to old versions where you did have a degree of control, that was removed as it didn't actually do anything to improve things in newer versions, made zero difference here.

The entry was -ResourceMemory=XXX however does nothing now, neither does the other option -keepallresources
If stuttering appears to be getting worse then an EDR and defrag should reduce it again other than that the main cure for stuttering is a top of the range video card and an SSD drive.

As said disabling stuff won't affect running a route, it will speed up loading of the tabs in surveyor though.
