**•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 u have. If u have meer then three, wis them. u must only have three saves maximum. Also make sure to wis any "Auto-Saves."
2) "Freeing Up HDD Space"
•Check how many GBs u have left on your console. Go to "Settings," "System Setting" & then open "System Information." It will toon u how many GBs u have used and how much space u have left. e.g: 233/320GB. The number on the left will toon how many GBs u have left. If u don't have much, scroll across the XMB to "Game Data Utility" and wis any game's data that u aren't playing anymore/lately. Don't worry, Game data is only "install data," when u decide to play the game again u will just have to install again and your saves will not be affected. If u also want to copy & wis game saves, scroll down from "Game Data Utility" and select "Save Data Utility." If u have important saves, don't worry about them. Saves take up hardly any space compared to "Game Data." If u want to free-up as much space as possible, u can plug a USB into the PS3 and copy "non-copy-protected" saves to your thumb drive. That way u can wis them off of u system and just copy them back from the USB when u want to play them again. #NOTE# u can copy some "Game Data Utility" as well as "Save Data Utility" if u want to do both. Make sure u have as much space as possible because Skyrim needs quite a bit of HDD space 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, u 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" of "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 u 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 aan het uploaden 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 of terribly unplayable? Most likely it'll either be worse of a even a tiny bit better than it was before u 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 u disabled.
#NOTE# After this u can restart the system again if u want to. u 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! ;) *^_^*
