Hi

I’ve experienced the same problem in 2024. It doesn’t help in my case that I’ve got an appalling Internet speed. However, even people with proper Internet have been reporting this. Even airports I’ve downloaded seem to have this quite often. 

the only thing I’ve read that could help is switching off dynamic settings, then loading in the destination airport scenery in World Map. Results so far seem promising but still testing. Guess it’s worth a try.

But going to world map during a flight doesn‘t make Sense, right ?

Which hosting site can you guys view from? 

Anything besides Imgur should work. Can't think of any at the moment.

So far I think postimages.org works nice unless some brits object

I'll just upload this again for those who don't know how yet:

Thanks for putting the effort in for this. 

No doubt it does work to some extent, but it is just absolutely crazy that we should have to do all this for this 'modern, cutting edge simulator' to run right.

You don't have to do it, I think these cache clearing exercises are more placebo half the time! The only one that should be cleared every now and then is the actual games cache, doing that manually is no different to clearing your browser cache or firestick cache etc etc. Should it be automated? Perhaps.

Wow. That stinks. The government must be saving you from inflicting some kind of harm upon yourself. I hope my government never cares that much. 

Now the rest of the world can save our UK invasion plans as .BMPs and share them on Imagur instead of spending lots of money on encryption and equipment to hide them. 🤣

Not sure why images are banned but , if I remember correctly , it was a High Court Judgement about music copyright.

I expected it to be overturned rapidly but nothing seems to have happened.

As a 62 year old I'm very relieved to now be protected from seeing harmful images of aeroplanes, motorcycle racing and astronomy....🤷‍♂️

I thought it was just a normal picture hosting site like Flikr but clearly there is so much more.

We can see the  images from the UK and enjoy world wide Internet radio by using a VPN ; it's so easy.

Imgur refused to comply with the UK government's online safety law, and withdrew its service from the UK.....

Good on them. The rest of us appreciate them defending our liberties.  

Classic example of Government 'over reach' 

I'd like to decide what I'm offended by, not the Government.

Us polite Brits just roll over and accept it too!

Flying last night in the beta, I actually saw my CPU usage go up to 105% according to Steam’s in game performance stats.  It stayed there for quite a while…I was in the FSLabs A321N at inibuilds PHNL.

I’ll take that as my CPU is being fully utilized in SU4, but was surprised to see CPU usage stay above 100% for a period of time.  Temps were around 86C.

No, I meant do that before you start a flight. It does seem to improve things somewhat. Also increased my rolling cache to 32Gb (...oh no! now I need more RAM).

 imgur didn't leave the UK because of the OSA. 

https://ico.org.uk/about-the-ico/media-centre/news-and-blogs/2025/09/statement-update-on-imgur-investigation/

The goals of the investigation which was not specific to MediaLab (Owner of imgur): https://ico.org.uk/about-the-ico/media-centre/news-and-blogs/2025/02/investigations-announced-into-how-social-media-and-video-sharing-platforms-use-uk-children-s-personal-information/

Imgur among various other companies were being fined with how they handled children's data. Imgur didn't want to bother with fixing this issue and decided to point blank leave the UK. OSA was just good timing to hide under this. This was purely a monetary decision from MediaLab, not some attack against OSA (Which I also do not approve of)
