**•How To Make Skyrim Run Better On PS3!•**
Tired of the game-breaking lag with your 20meg Skyrim save files? Here is a guide to help prevent these issues:
1) "Deleting Excess Save Files"
•Go to "Save Data Utility" on the XMB & check how many Skyrim saves toi have. If toi have plus then three, supprimer them. toi must only have three saves maximum. Also make sure to supprimer any "Auto-Saves."
2) "Freeing Up HDD Space"
•Check how many GBs toi have left on your console. Go to "Settings," "System Setting" & then open "System Information." It will montrer toi how many GBs toi have used and how much l’espace toi have left. e.g: 233/320GB. The number on the left will montrer how many GBs toi have left. If toi don't have much, scroll across the XMB to "Game Data Utility" and supprimer any game's data that toi aren't playing anymore/lately. Don't worry, Game data is only "install data," when toi decide to play the game again toi will just have to install again and your saves will not be affected. If toi also want to copy & supprimer game saves, scroll down from "Game Data Utility" and select "Save Data Utility." If toi have important saves, don't worry about them. Saves take up hardly any l’espace compared to "Game Data." If toi want to free-up as much l’espace as possible, toi can plug a USB into the PS3 and copy "non-copy-protected" saves to your thumb drive. That way toi can supprimer them off of toi system and just copy them back from the USB when toi want to play them again. #NOTE# toi can copy some "Game Data Utility" as well as "Save Data Utility" if toi want to do both. Make sure toi have as much l’espace as possible because Skyrim needs quite a bit of HDD l’espace to run properly. My Skyrim Game Data is about 4-5 GBs.
2) Tweaking "Game & Display Settings"
•Sometimes "Graphical Enhancement" settings can interfere with gameplay performance such as frame-rate dips, glitches & lag in massive games like Skyrim. (Don't worry, toi will be changing these settings back later!)
#Temporarily Disable The Following:
*Go to "Game Settings" and turn "PS Smoothing" to "Off."
*Scroll down to "Display Settings" and disable/limit all the HDMI Features:
- Super White
- RGB Range to "Limited."
- Cross-Colour Reduction Filter
- Deep Colour Output
3) "Permanently Disabling All In-Game Auto Saves & Testing Performance"
•After you've put all of the ^ *above settings to either "off" ou "limited," insert your Skyrim disc and load it up.
Once the game has loaded, go to setting and disable all Auto-Saves listed below (if toi haven't already.)
*Save on Wait
*Save on Fast Travel
*Save on Rest
*Save on Character Menu
^ *This will prevent in-game stuttering when your system forces your game to save automatically. It may also decrease chargement times significantly as well as preventing auto-save files from filling up your load & save menus.
4) "System Restart & Re-Enabling Settings"
•When you've disabled all of the "Auto-Save" options, exit the menu and test how your game is running. Is it good, OK, annoying ou terribly unplayable? Most likely it'll either be worse ou a even a tiny bit better than it was before toi changed the settings. If it's at least a little better, it'll probably still be, well...BAD!
Don't worry! A system restart and another change of settings should fix that right up!
*Quit the game and turn the PS3 off then on again.
*When the PS3 has turned on again, go to back to "Game" and "Display Settings" to re-enable the settings toi disabled.
#NOTE# After this toi can restart the system again if toi want to. toi do not have to.
With your re-enabled "Graphic Settings," load up Skyrim again and enjoy the (at least temporary) smoother, consistent frame-rate & a lot less lag! ;) *^_^*
