I have installed the new Beta, and since that it takes more than 10 minutes to open the Simulator, so to load PMDG products. Every time I try to load the 787-10 I get CTD.
Note: I simultaneulsy updated to the last Nvidia Drivers.
Uninstall the nVidia driver using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) in Safe Mode.
Reinstall the previous driver.
Test the Beta version of FS2020 without making any other changes to your system configuration.
See this thread about a suspiciously similar CTD issue:
Here as well. Load time was always around 3 minutes. Has gone up to over 7 minutes!!! Having around 70 items in my community folder.
Please vote people, so that this gets fixed before release!

I moved my Community folder to a different location to try if that improves things, which didn’t help at all.
I just measured my loading time into a flight (to a cached photogrammetry location) as 7:55. That is without any Community AddOns. Of that time only about 30seconds have seen any real network usage.
Loading from my Desktop into the game came in at 16:20, with my internet connection disabled. 90% of that time there were none, or close to no disk accesses.
My machine is perfectly modern though: 2 nvme SSDs with one of those dedicated 100% to MSFS, Ryzen 5800, RTX 3060 and more than enough of anything else, too.

I’m confused. My latest FS2020 release says v1.33.8.0.
When I load the sim, check for updates makes no mention of v1.34.10.
Sorry if I missed something in this topic.

Same here unfortunately.
It does not matter whether my community folder is empty or not. It takes me at least 20 min to get to the main menu and further 10 or so into a flight. This was only a matter of a few minutes before.
I also had a CTD when a flight was loaded and I hit “ready”. After that, when restarting and choosing “safe mode” it was loading fast to main menu and into the flight.
After the flight, I closed the sim and restarted it. Same long loading times again.
This issue was not there before SU13 beta.
oops, sorry! Don’t participate in Beta.
I redid those two tests, but this time in safe mode.
In safe mode (still on 1.34.10 of course), loading of the same flight in into the cached photogrammetry area takes 37 seconds instead of the 7:55 minutes in normal mode.
In safe mode, loading the sim from desktop takes 2:18 minutes, instead of the 16:20 minutes before entering safe mode.
In all occasions i loaded into a default airport with a default airplane, default photogrammetry already cached and no mods/add ons anywhere in that area around the airport. No community add ons were installed. Premium and deluxe package, plus a few bought airplanes and airports were installed though, but none in that area.
So yeah, neither my computer nor the base sim are the issue here, but some loading/handling of add ons might have changed maybe?
This is my assessment, too, based on my experimentation.
I’d go a step further and say the problem was there before this beta, just not as pronounced. Loading times have gone up for me by >50% yes, but even before it was way worse than it could have been, from what I see stripping my sim.
How does one troubleshoot problematic addons? I’ve spent weeks going them and I never get consistent results.
Don’t do the beta versions because there is always problems, in my opinion just stick to the normal release only takes my sim 12s to load up and I’ve got over 100 addons.
It takes my sim 20 mins to load before the beta. I have x12 the amount of addons you have, but I see everyone else reporting 3-5 mins. With the Beta it was taking over 2 hours, (this was what this thread was about before it got moved and renamed by the admins and then immediately derailed.)
Sorry to hear that ,hope you get it sorted .
