Cache

Landmark has a cache system that allows the game to save data to your hard drive and load directly from it as you are traveling over previous traveled land. On this page you will see how you can set this up to work with a Solid State Drive without fear of using valuable space.

Those who purchased or downloaded the game again after the June 2016 launch may note that the references to Sony Online Entertainment have been replaced with the new studio name Daybreak Game Company.

Set-Up

In order to set this up you will need the following items and information.

• Windows 7 or greater
• 1 Physical hard drive installed
• The Cache folder address inside the Install directory of Landmark
  • Default: "C:\Users\Public\Sony Online Entertainment\ Landmark\Cache"
• An address to a folder on the physical hard drive to store your cache data.

Setting up the cache to be saved in the new location is very simple. This step by step guide will take your through all the steps you will need in order to set it up correctly.

1. Close out of Landmark
2. Delete the Cache folder in the Landmark installation directory.
3. Open a Command Prompt in Administrator mode.
   • Click on your start menu and do a search for cmd.exe
   • Right click the cmd.exe and select Run as Administrator.
4. In the command prompt type the following information:
   • mklink /j "{Source}" "{Target}"
     • {Source} is the address to the Cache folder in your Landmark folder.
       • Default: "C:\Users\Public\Sony Online Entertainment\Landmark\Cache"
     • {Target} is the address to where you want the data to really be stored.
       • This is the location on the physical hard drive which you created earlier.
       • The target folder must NOT exist, but be located in a directory that does exist.
         • Example: "D:\Landmark\Cache" <==> The "Cache" folder doesn't exist, however, the "Landmark" folder does.
5. Press enter.

If done correctly you should see this message.

• Junction created for {Source}  <<===>> {Target}
  • {Source} and {Target} will be the addresses which you typed before.

Conclusion

The last thing you will need to do is turn on the caching options within Landmark to benefit from this feature. This is very useful if you have limited bandwidth each month and/or want to conserve banwidth while you play.
