					| With the unprotected files I get a much much faster start up of the game and also faster loading screens, but no speed increase in the game. Faster loading is quite nice tho, a nice change.

This is for 32-bit Windowses. On 64-bit Windows, 32-bit application can automatically use up to 4 GB of RAM for itself (vs 2 or 3 GB on 32-bit Win).

					| With skidrow version and files from  unprotected.rar
1) much faster starting up
 2) slight fps increase in certain areas, not much in others
 3) a lot higher gpu load in crossfire but not much gain
 
 After renaming .exe to dirt2.exe (with radeonpro)
 4) between 5-10 fps gain on the above
 5) but lower crossfire load
 
 
 Paul.dll seems completely obsolete with this exe btw...

					| Just backed up everything and fired it up via remote with fraps, was inside the tent and was showing 40 fps... but i think thats pretty much how it was before.. Naturally though a remote session might not be giving accurate data so i will try when i am home full screen...
 Thanks for the post but I imagine its much the same..
 
 It does load a LOT faster though which is a bonus i suppose!

					| I wish there were some moderation on these forums.
 We have a PC-Games Technical-section for a reason, for those of you who do not know where it is:

 Yes, yes I'm back.
 Somewhat.

 Changed something in the config, then changed it back, so it had to resave the file and everything works again, thanks!

					| Some personal feed-back on new *cough* "noDVD" *cough*...
 There seems to be an increase in GPU load (as GPU temps now go up to ~74 degrees C, compared to previous load ~65 degrees - measured with MSI Afterburner).
 
 Also loading time on launcher starting game has been reduced with roughly 40-50% here.
 
 Can't put my finger on FPS gains though yet. Seems to be slightly better, but might be a placebo, as I already had decent FPS even with SkidRow's crack method.
 
 And as for SecuRom and games going hand in hand with happy performance all I can "say" is...

 np, stange isnt it? there seems to be something wrong with the copyrotection and it seems to affect the performance of the engine.
 | 
 
 I haven't noticed any performance increase, exempt much faster game start-up.

					| Using the GOG EXE, and launched directly from it and not the launcher, almost HALVES the loading speed - both getting into game and between areas.   Much better improvement.   The framerate isn't affected though, still the same as it was.
