Witch Hat (Flair)

I realise that having mods installed makes the game take longer to load, but this one specifically is taking much longer than a hat mod really should. For comparison (from Launch_2.log):

[0157.13] Log: Loading of mod 'Sails that are Sandy' took: 42.458640 seconds
[0313.33] Log: Loading of mod 'Sails that are Sandy' took: 13.441858 seconds

[0228.26] Log: Loading of mod 'Pirate Hat' took: 0.049632 seconds

[0233.49] Log: Loading of mod 'Space Swashbuckler' took: 1.709211 seconds

[0288.58] Log: Loading of mod 'Witch Hat (Flair)' took: 55.085027 seconds

Sails that are Sandy, a huge chapter mod, takes ~42 + ~13 (so ~55) seconds. Pirate Hat, a mod like this one that adds a single Brewing Hat flair, takes <1 second. Space Swashbuckler, which adds a hat flair, costume, and weapon, takes <2 seconds. This mod takes ~55 seconds to load. It seems quite long in comparison. Very few cosmetic mods take more than 1-2 seconds to load.

Yeah, I noticed the bubbles disappeared too. Weird, but glad it sorted itself out.
Having mods in general enabled seem to make the game take longer to load, and I don't think it's an issue with this one specifically. I don't think the error message is related to performance either. I'm not sure why it does that but it shouldn't be an issue.

I love this mod, but for some reason it takes nearly a minute to load. I do get these messages in my Launch_2.log:

[0234.00] Log: Compressing '..\..\HatinTimeGame\Mods\Shadercache\ModShaderCache-witchhat-PC-D3D-SM3_save.tmp' to '..\..\HatinTimeGame\Mods\Shadercache\ModShaderCache-witchhat-PC-D3D-SM3.upk'
[0234.00] Log: Filename 'ModShaderCache-witchhat-PC-D3D-SM3' is too long; this may interfere with cooking for consoles. Unreal filenames should be no longer than 30 characters.

I don't know if they're relevant or due to something else. Also, it doesn't seem to emit purple bubbles any more?

No problem! Glad to hear it all worked out.

@Clone5184,
Played a little more and turns out it just got erased form my inventory.
Won it again on the machine. Thank you for this mod btw.

It doesn't? What sort of an issue are you running into?

No longer works after latest update :(

Brewing hat needs more flairs, so even beta hat is good. :3
