Hey all, I’m noting increased sim launch loading times. It isn’t what it was with the release and earlier build of the sim. On my powerful 7800X3D-based PC it is not terrible, but on my 2018 Razer Blade it, easily, rivals 2020’s load time. I need to get the stop watch going, and post actual times. …

Can I disable that content from Premium Deluxe edition?

I have no idea on Xbox. In 2020, the Content Manager was pretty restricted about what could or couldn’t be uninstalled from packages. You’d have to take a look. Start by finding the Standard to Deluxe Upgrade package. Expand it and see if you can disable EHAM. If so, look through the Base package …

Already tried this after the first occurence, no luck on my end. Being a nVidia user (some call my even nVidia Fan Boy :rofl:) the trick from the Loading 6% freeze “loading languages” thread helped me. From 4 -5 times video length down to 1 time video length.

I experience the opposite. After a reboot the first load is always 30s to 1m longer than average. After the first load, times usually stay within 5 to 10 sec of average until the next reboot. This behaviour is common to both 2020 and 2024.

[image] SeedyL3205: Test #1: No reboot, last played MSFS2024 yesterday; time from launching the sim from the Xbox app to being fully loaded at the main menu was 7+ minutes. Wow, if I could start it in under 10 minutes I’d be very happy. Currently takes me about 40 Minutes to get in on my PC, …

OK thanks, I will give that a try when I get a chance over the weekend. :crossed_fingers:

[image] NixonRedgrave: As expected, turning off all core “Scenery”, “Mission”, “Livery” and “Misc” content within the Base, Deluxe & Premium packages eliminated the progress bar halting at 14% on my desktop. When it hits 14% now, the bar continues to move even if the percentage continues to disp…

I have just lost the cursor mode so without a mouse the game is broken on Xbox, I can’t use the EFB or the upper toolbar. What a mess…

[image] XTCQuinn: says validating packages every time I start. That’s normal, but it should only take a few seconds.

That’s the bit that takes about 40 minutes. Can’t see much CPU/Disk activity on task manager while it’s doing that, CPU is at about 12% and SSD says about 3%. GPU sits at about 35% during that time. I’ve tried it with my anti virus off in case that’s causing some delay checking files but it’s sti…
