Yes, thats the post I was referring to.
I asked as I was curious to what 'Play' meant and how things work.
It seems from what you say there may be more reason to consider what to do and see what others say here to weigh my decision.
CC Magic Question
The world calls for graphics/art work, and I answer. So, can I count on you to call me up for service?

Anyway, I'd like to get the topic back to what Sarah_Sim's said last and see what others have to say about it, please:

Thanks for all the backup everyone. I was beginning to doubt myself after reading the original post on MTS by the creator of CC Magic, granthes. Within the first few lines he mentions that the program helps with lag which had me somewhat confused.
Quote: "Game Lag : When you have more than about 200 custom content files, the game begins to slow down noticeably. This is a limitation of the way modern computer operating systems work, not an issue with the game itself."
This simply isn't true though, is it? Or are we all missing something vital here?
@t888: I'm in agreement with simsoes and am also wondering why you would want to start the game using the official Launcher rather than CC Magic.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong here but doesn't having The Launcher open while playing, use up extra resources from your computer (i.e. memory), especially if you are connected to the internet? I don't know if this is a good way to test or not but I've just opened up both CC Magic and The Launcher on my PC, together with Task Manager. CC Magic is using 54,500K of my RAM and The Launcher is using 135,420K. This is without the game actually running though but if you also take into account the fact that I have 7.31GB of CC installed in CC Magic and only 28.8MB installed through The Launcher, it makes you wonder exactly what The Launcher is doing. I know which one I'd rather have open while I was playing. "
