This fixed the problem for me but when the update came, so did the problem and this fix doesn't work for me anymore.

When I select my assets I select dynamic and weapon.
Basically this;
swtor_main_art_dynamic_cape_1
swtor_main_art_dynamic_chest_1
swtor_main_art_dynamic_chest_tight_1
swtor_main_art_dynamic_hand_1
swtor_main_art_dynamic_head_1
swtor_main_art_dynamic_lower_1
swtor_main_art_dynamic_mags_1
swtor_main_art_weapon_1.tor

Any idea how to fix this?
The file itself you can edit from wherever you put Unleashed if there's tweaks you need to make (see spoiler below - ignore my settings, I was just experimenting). I don't bother with that - all I've done personally to be safe is to delete the swtorunleashed.xml file and then select my bits that I want to try in ram.

For updates, to play it safe - if I know there's updates, I launch it in retail mode so it can update and then quit, delete the xml file and go again.

I'm certainly no expert on this but like the poster just before me was merely experimenting to see if it would help any.

Delete swtorunleashed.xml file, start unleashed, configure your options then play.

I don't know if this has been asked, but I downloaded and started. Everything works but there are no servers for me to choose from.

Edit : Hmmmm. Nevermind. The server list seems to be completely gone for me no matter what.

Love the idea behind this, and the work all of you put into it. So thank you very much for all of your dedication. Unfortunately, I know this program won't really help me since I only have 4GB RAM. I was thinking of buying some additional RAM though, to reach 8 total. My desktop isn't exactly new, but I was hoping SWTOR unleashed + some extra ram would save me the time of waiting until I can afford a new gaming rig.

You wont see a huge difference with 8 gigs either, especially if the rest of your computer is a bit dated. Your next problem will be the same as i had encountered....the dreaded bottleneck.

You can try and purchase the ram and try but i dont think youll see a big enough change to do flips over. The only benefit that 8 gigs will get you is that the game itself should certainly run a tad better. My experience with having 8 gigs of ram myself is that i could put only very little assets into ram without running out of space. The final result for me was hardly any to no change at all.....depending what was going on in my game in front of me.

Ive recently bought a new rig and it runs the game a ton better, so this program is no longer needed. Im glad that some people find it beneficial though. Nice job.

Even with 8GB RAM, I'm hoping it'd be enough to at least run Warzones a bit better (which is my primary concern). I'll think about it though, considering your input(Thank you, btw). As for your new PC and it generally running better, do you PvP a lot? If so, does it also run much better? If so, just curious as to the specs of your new rig.

I have 8GB RAM on my PC. But with LocalApps + DiskCacheArena + FX _ Dynamic I get this error:

Hey, Ive got 4 gigs of Ram, is it worth installing? Will i get better performance? also do i always have to launch through swtor unleashed, or will launching from the main swtor work as well? is there any way i can skip out the run unleashed step? thanks- a swift response would be appreciated.....

No. With only 4GB of memory you will see no benefit with Unleashed and most likely encounter issues. Don't run it.
