Instead of the normal 1by1 loading of items as they get closer, 1by1, things load in unimmersive batches. Like, 11trees with some rocks, houses and grass at once.

I DO have: An unused 32G 2.0 thumbdrive
I DON'T have: An ssd/alternate hard drive
I use Purevision ENB with disabled ssao
I'd rather not lower settings without a good reason.
Need more information? Ask and ye shall receive.
gamesas: Do NOT make me type this again. Not my fault your servers drop. Save a cache.
Also: If you have any pro1337 INI tweaks with an amazing description of what it does i'm all ears.
EDIT: I encountered a damaging permission issue, so I have moved all my games, steam and not, to C:\Games\, a non-UAC directory. This may have a difference because the directory allows full access to everyone, IDK. Will update.
