Consider implementing a Streaming Cache

Open thelink2012 opened this issue 9 years ago • 0 comments

To improve loading times of the disk, it may be a good a idea to cache the most fetched files from the modloader directory.

Think about it in a way that respects some of the game optimizations, so we can be as optimized:

  • Dependent resources follows one another (e.g. txd followed by it's dff files).
  • Should we reflect disk sectors, just like img files?
  • Nearest resource picker

Maybe we should even put some compression on our archive. Also we could prioritize radar textures?

The problem I see with this is: More disk usage.
