Faster startup times ?

Featured Replies

Is the a way of temporaly turning off countries you don't often fly in ?

if so, how ?

You can uninstall World Updates for areas you don't fly in, other than that no you can't uninstall random areas unless you have them as mods.

Pico Neo3 Link VR - Windows 11 64bit, Gigabyte Z590 Aorus Elite Mobo, i7-10700KF CPU, Gigabyte RX 9070 XT OC 16gb (AMD GPU), 32gig Corsair 3600mhz RAM, SSD x2 + M.2 SSD 1tb x1

Saitek X45 HOTAS - Saitek Pro Rudder Pedals - Logitech Flight Yoke - Homemade 3 Button & 8-directional Joystick Box, SNES Controller (used as a Button Box - Additional USB Numpad (used as a Button Box)

But that wouldn't necessarily improve start up times. Doesn't seem to matter how GB's I add or remove, it takes the same time to load. 

Empty your community folder of areas, planes and mods you're not going to use during your flight and that will help some with startup times. Another reason to use addon linker as you can make presets that only include what you're actually going to use on a particular flight (you can also manually add remove what's linked as needed).

Running game in offline mode will result in much faster startup times.

Addons or files which have low harddisk size but too much file under, impacts loading performance too much.

For example navigraph data or AI traffic data, etc... They are not too big like airports or sceneries but they are indexed by the simuator in more time than others.  When I want fast startup, I disable these on AddonsLinker and it is good to go then.

How do you disable Navigraph data with AddonsLinker? As that data is installed directly into MSFS community folder, do you just move them?

Thanks

Open Navigraph Navdata Center and click REMOVE.

Actually rather important that you do this via Navigraph Navdata Center, as the installation of Navigraph navdata makes a modification to your Content.xml file that needs to be undone in order for the sim navdata to work.

Forgot about this, but Navdata Center is the easiest way anyway...
