Default Re: SJ\'s Tech Gridder 0.50 - now with ability support!

Okay, so I manage to combine my new comps into one giant 71 MB Components.txt file. I load SE4 with the Mod Launcher, watch the meter shoot up to 64% and sit...and sit...and sit...and sit... The Task Manager shows the SE4 process consuming larger and larger amounts of memory, up to ~170 MB, then dropping to ~50 MB and climbing again. Page file use steadily climbs, eventually reaching ~565 MB! After 15 minutes of watching this, the hard drive whirrs and chatters, and something finally happens:

code:
"Unable to load "D:\Games\Space Empires IV Gold\Mods\Data\Components.txt"

71 MB of data and 15 minutes of load time, and I probably misspelled "Name:" on one comp. Be my guest if you'd like to look through the file, though. Maybe 256 MB of RAM just isn't enough. Or maybe SE4 just doesn't like files that big. I guess that limits what I'm going to do with this mod, though.
