Takes so long I usually walk away and come back later!

But the "Press any key" is the long part. We need a way to skip that.

It can take more than 10 minutes to load up the game for me, some times i get a a file is missing error and i have to reboot and start again, Just wondering if its me or is it the big program loading up.

Even after selecting a flight it takes 5 minutes before it take me to the fly now page.

Waiting for a new joystick coming but making do with a old sidewider which is hard to use on the commands i have put in, just the basics

Had a great flight over landszarote at unset last night looking over the volcanos

Do you use a SSD or HDD in your PC?

Side note but don't forget if you're running the Steam version you can save a few seconds by adding this line to the launch options: -FastLaunch

This will skip the intro videos. It's something, at least.

Where exactly do you do this? Thanks for the help.

Non Steam Users. The following should, load the sim, skipping over the logos.

This was outlined in the "Tips and Tricks" forum over a week ago. There are now a lot of useful tips and tricks to be found there... 😉

The more scenery you have manually cached, the longer it will take you to load into an area that utilizes the cached scenery areas.

But on my system it only takes a bout a minute load time to enter sim and another minute load time for the flight itself, and I dont have a super beefy system either:

Here you go:

Right-click on the game in your Steam library. From the menu that pops up, choose 'properties', then 'set launch options'. Paste -FastLaunch into the box that appears then choose 'OK'.

That should do it for you 😃
