I played this before but had uninstalled, wanted to revisit after all the updates.
112gb install or whatever, should take less than an hour to download on my line.
Running 24 hours now, still got 30GB left to download, what gives?
Have paused/resumed/restarted, the installer claims to be getting 49Mbit/s but Task Manager disagrees.
Easy does it on the big downloads like the whole game. I have a fast home internet, so when stuck, I insert an old and s l o w wireless repeater to drag down the total speed. I was stuck at 72% of the total game. Now I am making progress again.
Problem was with fspackage 022. I finally escaped this by adding CPU limiting of 66% to MSFS2020 using BES. Now back to progress. When done, I shut down BES.
I think some part of the download and reconstruction process isn’t waiting form some other part of the process so endless failures and re-trys. Maybe they can fix this.
