I can say I am a bit disappointed, had to wait it for 20 minutes just to load the welcome screen !!!
I do not want to be pessimistic, but as I started packing new addons from the MSFS store or the community, the loading time is becoming longer and longer!!.
I am having nightmares!! what will happen once PMDG or FSLAB come MSFS?!!
Are you using a HD or SSD?
Is it just this game? Or others as well?
i have the same problem on m.2 1,5 GB/s. My startup time is now 33 minutes, without addons in community folder i have 3 minutes startup.
Tero
Should we file a report
Man, that’s not good. They need to make it only load the add-ons that are needed, after you set up the flight and hit “Fly”. This is dumb design.
Wow that’s ridiculous.
Sounds like you have a corrupt file somewhere. I would reinstall each add-on one by one and see if it helps.
So you added things into the sim to be loaded at startup, and now you have to wait longer for it to load…
May be a good indication that some of the addons aren’t very optimized, but either way: The more the program needs to load at start, the longer it is going to take to load.
Take a look at this post for some observations:
hm, just as an observation from my side: with around 15 addons in my community folder it takes around 1.5 minutes to get to the main menu.
ssd, 9900k, 32gig, 100mbit/s wan on my side.
I have 110 add-ons, some of which are large livery packages, and it only takes me a few minutes to reach the main menu (SSD 650M/s, i7-9700k, 64GB RAM).
welp, the mega liveries pack #8 is on my end, too. i did count it as one (1), tho, haha.
I counted it as one per aircraft but I still have a lot of scenery and single livery add-ons as well.
ya, me too. but i’ve never waited for more than just a minute or two to get this game fired up. at the most !
there are strange things going on !
@aprodigyyy I know, right?
@WheezierMaple8 @SweetestCorn719 I think you each have either:
a) Corrupt file or
b) A problem with your main disk
c) A process/program thatvis locking access to the file (such as antivirus software)
I recently moved the sim to HD higher storage from SSD , However I had slight delay for 5 minutes only.
five minutes are still a heck of a long time…
Brand new PC just for the MSFS.
1TB SSd , TB HD,i7 10k, RTX 2080 ti and 64 GB RAM.
I am guilty though of downloading every known community addons
SSD or HDD?
And how much RAM do you use?
did the same. didn’t change much on my end, tho. they are all the cosmetic kind of addons, however.
I know, but 20 minutes wait is excessively long. I have only 59 GB of community addons only!!!
