FS2020 Loading Steps

Does anyone know what activity is running at each stage of the loading process.

On my system the loading application takes about 15sec. Then a black screen with a half circle on the lower right of the screen, Which takes a longer time till I get to the XBox screen. Then you have the current WU screen.

My question is curiosity. Not any problems.

Thank You.

Your post has not been moved to the Bug Reporting Hub but to the User Support Hub that is the correct category based on your question :+1: .

None of us, gamers, know what is loading.

You can display Task Manager and see the increase in memory as it gets loaded.

Thank You. I thought maybe someone from the development team might know.

Hi @BusierEmperor83,
The Windows Resource Monitor shows what is happening in real-time on a PC (I don’t know if there is a equivalent on an Xbox console). If you watch it during the startup / loading procedure, over time you can get a pretty good idea of what is going on in the background after MSFS is started. If you have a network analyzer such as Wireshark, you can also determine what some of the network traffic is doing too.

Thank you, Sir, for the information.
