Ridiculous CPU usage the second CAW launches
As someone advised me in another thread, I wanted to see if I can simply edit one of the ready worlds in CAW to suit my needs. The problem is, when I launch CAW my CPU goes crazy. I first noticed the hissing sound, but then I checked in the task manager and it jumps up to a 100%.
I have vertical sync enabled globally, my PC can run The Sims with all expansions and a bajillion of CC (installed mostly with CC magic) rather smoothly. Most NRaas mods included.
Then there's this software, black screen, no world loaded, I am not even touching it, it's just enough that it's on screen (the issue goes away when it's not in focus, for instance I have Firefox window active). Instant hiss and 100% CPU usage. I am baffled, I know people with worse computers use it successfully, but something is severely wrong here for me and I don't know why and I'm scared to use the program not to hurt my PC :o
Has this happened to anyone before?
