After going through all the runs I've realized that one of the things needed to improve my time is a way to speed up the load times. I was wondering how people were running the game, so I can compare it to my own method. For me I have the disc and am using an optical drive that plugs into my laptop (or my friend's computer as in my recorded run). Eventually I plan to build a computer with an optical drive, but will that effect the load times?

So I have come back and done a run with a computer that has an optical drive. I can confirm that it does indeed speed up the loading times significantly which is pretty sick.

I think that there could be a way to speed up the load times of the big fish games version of I Spy Treasure hunt. I recently began running I Spy Fantasy's Big Fish Games version which is available to this day through big fish's official store. That version consistently loads significantly faster than the BFG version of Treasure Hunt. Treasure Hunt is no longer offered via the BFG launcher so the people running that version of the game are just running the old exe file. If someone could find a way to run the BFG version natively through it's launcher it's possible the game would load as fast as Fantasy does. I have no idea how this would work though.
