2.2.4 Hangs at loading conflicts

(1/1)

wetwire:
I have noticed an issue with the 2.2.4 Thrawn's Revenge update.
Playing the "art of war"
Faction: Eriadu Authority
When loading into a conflict in space or ground battle the game appears to freeze for about 3-5 mins before resuming.
Prior 2.2.3 did hang a little but not nearly at long at 2.2.4

CPU: i7 2.79GHz
Ram: 12GB
OS: Win 7 64
Video: GeForce GTX 980
EAW FOC: Steam

Corey:
That's not a mod thing, that's because Petroglyph has patched the game a few weeks ago to fix issues with save files crashing, with the downside that save files now take longer to make. When it hangs on battle start, that's the autosave being created. We can't change how the game saves, but you're able to disable autosaves to make load times almost instantaneous like this:

wetwire:
Great suggestion Cory. Thanks that fixed the slow loading times.
I rarely relied on autosave before so this work around was perfect for me.
