Increase Sim Speed

Neags23 · 04-06-2012, 08:47 PM

I've noticed a few people mention how fast the sim speeds are in this version. To me, it actually feels a little slow compared to previous versions.

What settings do you guys use to increase your sim speeds?

I've got a 24 team league with one level of minors. Default roster rules.

I've turned off all replays, box scores, game logs, news logs, injury logs, and transaction logs.
Very high stat detail.
Turned off scouting and coaching.
R/L splits, fielding, and postseason stats ML league only.
Storylines enabled.
No baseball cards or facegen.
No almanac.
Saving once a year.
5 round ammy draft.
Dynamically evolving league options are all on.
Automatically adjust league strategy, import financial settings each year, automatically adjust league modifiers every year are all on.

One thing I've noticed that takes a long time is generating season predictions. Can that be turned off?

Any other setting I should look at?

I am just using the standard mlb league right now and it is significantly quicker then 12/11. The prediction was very very slow, but thats the only part I've seen it. Its taking me at worst half the time as it did previously.

That's because it sims 3 seasons for all leagues.

I'm assuming you mean the season predictions? Can you turn that off? No need for predictions if I'm simming for 50 years.

No, cannot be turned off... I may add an option for it, though.

You can set your antivirus program and your computer's search indexer (Spotlight on the Mac. I imagine PC's have something similar) to ignore the Out Of The Park Developments folder. That helps a lot.

With no changes on my system from v12 to v13, on a Mac, I feel that 13 is noticeably slower than 12.

I wouldn't call it "slow," but it is slower.

Well, at least it's not just me... any other settings you've tried to speed things up?
