/vint/ - International Vidya Īs per usual, here are the newest Fitgirl Repacks:./lgbt/ - Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, & Transgender.Speaking of which, I'm inclined to credit Lab42 here because this is the first patch release where the last four digits of the date format are DDMM (which is prevalent in the UK, where they are based) rather than MMDD (which is favoured in the US).

Whatever you've done to accomplish this, nice work Lab42. Even including the time between closing the game and starting it up the next time, the last of the five-launch cycles in for every cycle was finished by the time the first launch of had loaded in any of them. Subsequent launches are about twice as fast, but that's a saving of 1.66 seconds and nobody should care about that.Įdit: Oh, and fun fact.

So my earlier check wasn't a one-off, the first startup is significantly faster now, dropping by 28 seconds and 62%. Here are the minimums, maximums and averages of all five startups between the five launches: In an effort to keep the comparison as strict as possible, I measured the time between the frame after the Steam systray menu closed, and the frame where the game's window first appeared. Then I opened up the recordings in a video editor (Magix Vegas) and compared the timestamps. I repeated exactly this process 5 times on and. Wait for the 'Sega!' to complete and kill the game process using Alt+F4. Start Sonic Mania from the Steam quick-launch by right-clicking its systray menu. During this time, do absolutely nothing except close the Discord window that starts in focus.Ĥ. Type the Windows password, press enter, and simultaneously start a 90-second timer to allow Windows to load everything that takes a while to start up (namely Steam, Discord, GOG and Twitch). Įvery test followed exactly the same pattern:Ģ.

I've been home for about 1½ hours now, all of which I've spent testing the comparable startup times between and the previous build which I'm guessing would have been labelled. So during my lunch hour I posted an anecdotal one-startup comparison between the public branch and the beta.
