Loading/Freezing Issues
Hello,
On my most recent playthrough of the Witcher 2 I've been experiencing some problems, mainly loading issues. Loading times vary, sometimes they're fast, and other times they're ridiculously long. I first noticed the issue when I completely reinstalled the game and deleted any leftover files, because when I first started up the game after not having played it since 2012, I wasn't able to load any of my old saves. They would just load in an endless loop, so I deleted all of my old saves. I then started a new game and was welcomed with some insane texture pop-in on Geralt in his tent with Triss. After exiting the tent, that's when I first saw this freezing issue. The game would just freeze for couple seconds (2-4), repeatedly. It eventually let up for a bit, but started up again, so I just decided to reinstall.
After reinstalling, the issues were pretty much gone during the prologue section of the game, but once I got to the first chapter it started up again. Everything is pretty alright inside the town, but once I leave the town and enter the village and the forest, that's where it starts up again. Earlier today I exited the Flotsam and ran around the corner into the village and saw a house with horrible plain textures that took 3-5 seconds to pop-in the normal ones. And I was running through the forest in the ran when the freezing happened, but this time it was much worse. It did its usual freeze thing, but this time it actually went into a loading screen, which lasted 20-40 seconds, that was insane. When I tried to repeat that event, I was only able to get a load screen that lasted just a few seconds. But still.
I have no idea what's causing all of this stuff to happen. Although I did switch my GPU and CPU since I last played, from a GTX 580 to a GTX 680, and a i5 to an i7.
