this mod have been a lifesaver for me!! I have a ton of assets / mods, but I also have a really nice computer and I kept having issues with random assets not loading each time (at least LSM was saying so, and usually they were actually missing in game) and since I downloaded this I do not have that issue!! just gotta make sure you make this mod the first one that loads in properties, but just wanted to say thank you, and leave a comment for anyone who might have the same issue as me as it was hard to find any info online!

Is ther a other Mod that put the time to load the Game or Map Editor down ?

stop complmenting idiots

Thanks, can't upload anything to the workshop without this atm.

Use this instead: Control it!

Thanks '

DEPRECEATED

Use Control it! instead

Excellent mod, before this it was impossible to edit my styles in content manager. I have about 5k assets and the game would come to a halt in the main menu after removing/adding assets to the styles, now theres ZERO slowdowns. It seemed to do with CS reloading all author names everytime I made a single change

Yeah but what's the point of this mod then if it only makes Steam network requests in the main menu. As long as it's not doing it during gameplay who cares.

also, as mentioned in mod description, it wont affect gameplay directly, but just the info taken from steam. you will still see that info IF you look at the mod in content manager, it just wont load that info for other mods you havent subscribed yet, while without this mod it will load everything even if you dont look at the asset/mod directly from content manager.

@Dimensional One i believe this only stops bandwith, basically cuts communications with steam workshop to get news and suggestions, however it will still load anything related to mods you already are using. dont think it will make a big difference if you have a fairly decent computer, but in lower spec computers it might be helpfull.

Can someone please explain to me what this mod is supposed to actually do for you. I don't mean how it works under the hood. I get that. But it still took me the exact same amount of time for the launcher to execute, to get to the main menu, and to load my game. If this doesn't save a second of time, is it just meant to reduce band-with usage for people? I'm curious what visible, or effect this should have if it doesn't do anything in game-play.

If this stops it from looking up things like "author name', will that affect other mods that rely on that like FIND IT2 from being searchable by author name?

此模式通过Steam减少不必要的网络流量

照常启用mod。mod在Paradox logo期间运行，所以它会在你下次开始游戏时生效。

有多少流量？

内容管理器会生成大量的内容。如果你有1000个工作室订阅，游戏在主菜单加载时会有2000个Steam请求。此mod确保在您实际查看内容管理器中的workshop项目之前不会发出这些请求。

这个流量不是用来玩游戏的。它只是在内容管理器中显示的附加信息，例如资产作者姓名。

@wlodeq - you're joking right? this mod will only need an update if Steam changes the way it communicates with this game ...

believe me, this little thing saves lives

@wlodeq This isn't compatible either?

pls make compatible with airport DLC.

Interesting :)

I've seen some requests on a Harmony-based version of Less Steam so I've made it with some additional features and functionality. You can find it here:

Control It!

@thale5: Thank you for your inspiring work and for sharing the source code with the community. Your Loading Screen Mod is still one of the best mods around!

Should be updated to use Harmony instead of detours

I literally thought it decreased traffic ingame for 1 year lmfao

very good,thanks

Great work with this mod, thank you!

good mod .thanks

This mod is one of my best mods
many thanks

you have a pink screen because your graphics card is incompatible with cities skylines

@Future This is a Main Menu mod. It does nothing in-game.

heard that this can hurt fps in game if multiple mods are used-is that true?

Cant load at all I have pink screen for some reason

<3

nice i got a problem of the loading of a new map or existing one getting really slow not long before finishing making it look like it gona crash so hoping these 2 speed it up.

@rune1993 -- You bet. They're a great duo.

is this mod compatible with Loading Screen Mod and Loading Screen Mod [Test]

If the Ad panel is inactive after a UI update, the mod panel button does not work.

Well my new friend... I actually quit playing Cities Skylines and quit building assets because of the constantly long screen load times... and constant crashes when changing screens. Thank you!.

@Darkshaneky Steam issues. This mod has absolutely nothing to do with savegame loading. Restarting Steam should help.

Enabled the mod and reset, loaded a game and none of my assets loaded. Unsubscribed and went back in, same thing. Now none of my mods are appearing in the content manager at all, even after unsubbing and resubbing.

This is great it makes adding and removing items from 'styles' work without slowing down or crashing the game.

Skylines actually opens up in a reasonable time now. Thank you so much!

Thank you for this, I have a terribly slow connection and I hate the needlessly long loading times at boot, as a result.

@Chris6d Thanks. I'm willing to give credit for the hard work to Find It.

The fact that this mod allows me to search authors in Find It is amazing. I usually don't even remember the names of buildings, I just remember who made them, so for me, that's epic. Great work

FANTASTIC MOD. Without it my content manager was almost useless (I have a few thousands assets). THANKS A LOT :)

@dRuPpI Nothing to do with the overlay.

does this now also disable the steam overlay? .. I remember this was not the case some time ago but now I can't open the overlay via hotkey

My bad, resubbed and its fine, sorry about that.

@WHOOLEE It does but you did not notice. You don't have many custom assets or your connection with Steam is fast.

In Content Manager / Assets, you can see how asset author names appear lazily - i.e. on demand. That's what this mod does. The unmodded game loads all that stuff, and more, from Steam before the Main Menu opens.

Does not do a thing for me
