Slow Texture Loading


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Very impressed with the fixer! Love the cockpit shadows, they add so much to the experience!

I've found a slight problem I'm having on initial load and when changing settings and reloading the sim. For a good few seconds after the sim loads, everything is 'geometric' for want of a better word - the textures haven't fully loaded and the clouds and sky are flat blue/grey squares and often parts of the ground are missing. It eventually clears and loads normally but it lasts quite a few seconds after loading and when changing any settings whilst on the fly.

 

I've actually deleted my cfg and let it build a fresh one but it didn't make any difference. Doesn't happen in DX9, just DX10.

Is this normal?

Just to update, adding the line 'TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT=400' in the cfg file seems to have made it somewhat better. I'm not really sure why, or even if this is a good idea in the scheme of things, but before even the contrails of the aircraft were showing as black squares for a short time on view change but now they're not. It's still quite slow on initial loading though.
