end turn time...

before downloading DLV, i would like to know if the "end turn" takes a long time?

Yes it does have a tendancy to take a while (obviously depends on the speed of your PC), but it's still (in my opinion) by far the best mod out there. I tend to have the TV on in a background or read a book whilst playing DLV. The delay between turns just build up the tension for me.

I do the same. I take my time on my turns since I know it'll be a while before my next turn.

Dear Kuwn,
Due to the fact that DLV is a script-heavy mod the turns take some time - maybe a little bit more than in other mods.
BUT this is relevant to the specs of your computer, too.
For me, every turn takes 25-30 secs (DLV 6.1 with many mini-mods added) which is not a lot of time.
So, there is not a standard answer to your question...

Cheers
Agis

The fact that DLV use a long loading time gives me an exscue to play dlv while I study on my new career

Turn times aren't too bad for my pc, rarely do I have to wait a minute.

On my older PC (about 4 years old) turn times were over 5 minutes. On my newer PC they are only about 20-30 seconds at most.

takes a while, yes. psycologically i find its acually better

mods with fast turns usually drive you to play quick. the pace of the game increases, you play faster, tend to autoresolve its almost arcade/action

with slower end turn time you are allowed to dive deeper into the game mentally. you think about your short and longterm goals of your campaign, maybe imagine one of your characters better according to his traits, lay back and smoke a joint, simply enjoy the game.

a thing i used to do is to do pushups betwen turns or dishes or some basic cleaning up or doing my paper work. i never did stuff like chatting, whatching tv etc as it drags me out of the fantasy world the game creates for me. thats just me, i could never play a ww2 fps while listening to hip hop music
