Has anyone tried switching servers in FS 2024 options?

  • One possible reason is an incompatible item in the Community folder. I tried to load the BlackSquare A36 and it just sat there with a spinning circle.. just as you described.

    I just tried 3 different servers without success. This is just completely unacceptable, it takes my fairly powerful system 5 minutes to load the sim, and now I've been looking at this circle for 17 mi

I've tried three times, turned on the VPN. I have crazy fast internet where I live but apparently their servers are preventing me from enjoying a flight tonight. Trying to fly the Fenix 319 out of Las Vegas and it's just a spinning circle

That does not sound good for the future... 🫢

Same. Tried multiple times and no help. Noticed though that the Server selection is only for multiplayer. Or do I miss another server selection for downloading/Streaming scenery data?

566.14 Nvidia driver , just finished a flight around the UK, and landed in London, about 45 minutes. Never saw even a micro stutter. Everything loaded quick and nice. DLSS Quality, Ultra preset render, 200 both LODS.

I don't understand why everyone has a different experience compared to others. This is more stable than 2020 here. The planes feel alive yet easy to control with hand flying trims and power. No issues at all.

It's been nice like this for days. I ain't doing anything special with setups or tweaks. The scenery does not jump in and out. It loads fully and stays that way. Everything looks a little nicer than 2020 with no shimmer or such.

I don't know, is it that DLSS works better in 2024? I don't know. My internet is comcast 400 Bps speed.

My sim loaded in 2 minutes 25 seconds. oh, and I have nothing at all in Community.

Maybe my good experience is because traffic and weather is so conservative in settings. Who knows?spacer.png

Likely many reasons to get the spinning wheel and the airport won't load.

My findings so far,  Fly Tampa Toronto works and so does GSX, but not together. Get the spinning circle and airport does not load in.  If I remove GSX, Toronto Airports loads, and visa versa. 

GSX is supposed to be offically supported, but Fly Tampa is not. (Currently, I would rather have my airport scenery and just do without GSX for the time being)

I downloaded and installed a Delta Livery from the iniBuilds app for the MSFS 2024 A330.  However, airport won't load,  just get the spinning circle, airport does not zoom in and I have to force quit the sim. Works ok with the default Airbus livery though. 

I have had several great flights so far, as long as I stick to the MSFS 2024 default planes like the A330, A400M, Cessna 152, 172 and the king air.and keeping GSX uninstalled.  Loads everytime, and quickly. No issues with stutters, or ugly scenery. Day one I had the same issue everyone else has, but had no issues since then, with regards to loading into the sim. 

Also works well with Beyond ATC. I have never used the built in ATC in FS2020 or FS2024. 

Strange how some cannot get the sim to load at all, bad scenery, CTD, etc, and others are getting along ok. Wonder if it has something to do with where you live and the connections to the MS servers. I do know that some addons, or combination of addons can cause this, as listed above. Hopefully, things will improve soon. Its going to be a great sim.

This is exactly what happened to me, down to the same livery.  Will have to try a default livery.

Air Traffic in career doesn't save either.  You have to select each time you start the sim. 

I can report that the spinning has stopped when you use default livery.  If you use an addon livery even if included with the sim, I get endless spinning.  So at least I can load an airport now. without using an A330-300 or a Cessna..lol.

Maybe anyone experiencing this should first try a vanilla sim, remove every add on no matter how small, reboot and see if the problem continues. Maybe what we are seeing is partly compatibility issues.

Been doing that since release.  I did find that GSX is partly the culprit.  

i hope the will do some kind of offline version. This stuff sucks so much, still can't believe what they did...
