Keeping a tighter leash on what's running at once will help free up RAM.īe sure to expand the System Tray section of the taskbar, located at the bottom-right of your screen, by clicking the small arrow. Bookmark open browser tabs that you want to read later, then close them to free up RAM. Close any software that you're not actively working with. Second, pay closer attention to the programs you have open. Only use Photoshop when you're fully dedicated to working on a project. If your computer struggles when you have Photoshop open, try using a smaller app like Paint.NET or GIMP for minor edits. Is the game running slow as it takes longer than 10 seconds for a day to pass? Traffic is moving slower than normal? FPS is really low (How many FPS do you get)? Long loading times? Et cetera.What if you really need to clear RAM on your computer, but the apps hogging RAM are necessary to your workflow? You can handle this in two ways.įirst, try using lighter app alternatives when you can. You can also disable all of your apps to disable them from auto-launching with windows in Task Manager (CTRL+SHIFT then tap ESC) under the startup TAB.īut it help is you specify the lag. Here's a good paging file How To (Make sure you set minimum and maximum the same size):
If you want to allocate more memory, then you can try to turn off Windows auto-paging file resizing, and manually setting your paging file size to the size or you RAM, or two or three times your RAM, depending on how much you need. Maybe your city is nearing limits and causing lag issues.īut the only way to allocate more RAM, is buying more RAM. If you are running into lag issue (whatever that is), then it is usually either memory getting full, too many mods that are altering the game and chewing up too much CPU time. When your RAM starts filling up, Windows will move unused apps to virtual memory (paging file on your drives) so it can save RAM for immediate use by other apps. How can I allocate more RAM to the game such that it can use more then just 8GB? My PC has 16gb of ram, of which the game only uses exactly 50% at max (according to task manager), even though there's much more free ram available. Originally posted by ᛉᛁᛚ᛫ᚵᛆᛍᛕᛆᚱ:Hello, I have an issue where the does never use more than 50% of my RAM, where it then maxes out and as a result, I run into a lot of lag issues as I play with a lot of assets.
