long world map load time

[Raulfin]

I just got out of Midgar and the world map takes a good 30+ sec to load every time. Exiting towns, battles and loading the save file.
Using Remako world texture standalone, or any of the 3 world map options included in World Textures (EQ2Alyza, Felix, & satsuki), the no change option and deactivating World Textures gives the same load time.
I copyied the save to the steam saves folder and it loaded in ~2sec outside 7H.

Anyone have any ideas on a fix.

tried changing world textures, world models - characters, sound effects, GameConverter FF7Disc1.iso method, & midi type.

First post so i'm in awaiting approval, will try to respond but may take a bit so will also try to update this post.

edit: deleted like 50+ extra direct and music folders in settings and load time is down to 5sec to load world map from save now.

Probably the bug that creates an extra direct and music folder each time you're launching. Delete all the extras in Workshop -> Settings - > Extra Folders

ty EQ2, that seems to have done it.
Anything I can do on my end to stop it from making the extra folders everytime I launch the game?

I'm working diligently on the Catalog 3.0 release (and 4.0 announcement), and along with that I'll release a 7H version that won't have that bug. Please wait
