    Hello

    I don't know where I can just submit an idea, this is why I post that here.

    After update the game or any mod (tracks/cars) or for debug, it is recommanded to clear cache.

    After that when loading maps (and cars?) it takes a long times on certain maps at the first loading.

    Is it possible made a 'one cache button' to generate cache of all maps/cars (eg to use it during night, for later)

    Of course, it's insignifiant and it's just an idea, maybe simple to made it.

    Thanks

    It's a nice idea but it has complications I think.. I guess it would not be a good idea to implement it in the game itself
    because I think there is a large risk of making it unstable. Personally I don't really mind waiting those few secs longer
    to load up the content, you should also note that even when the scene (including car) isn't totally loaded you CAN access
    the GUI in the meantime for additional adjustments like part selecting or setting your camera or weather (time) or other stuff.
    Also I think the cache memory keeps what YOU select which differs from what someone else selects so.. putting ALL content
    into cache? I don't know if the cache will still be a benefit. :)

    Thanks.

    Indeed if the cache is very big and with a lot of files it'll be no really benefit...

    So, for the loading time with and without cache, I also don't have mesure it.
