ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Sometimes when loading is complete, that button doesn’t appear and you have to quit and restart.

Sames here… Have tried to load 3 separate fresh installs and now it’s doing the same thing… no way to start the sim. (for a few tries it worked for about 3-5 min and then crashed every flight)

I have the same thing. Just yet, when I launch a missile at ppl, the initial mission to fly over the airfield is launched

Same problem here. 99% of the time I only have the quit to desktop tab. Cannot enter the game. Any ideas to get into the game menu? Currently locked out because of this.
