Loading time, TrueEarth GB South P3D


BrianV

Recommended Posts

Hi, just trying to load TrueEarth GB South in Compton Abbas but my P3D loading times has increased significantly (stuck at the dreaded 6%) by about x10-longer when compared to FTX England.  I suspected the shaders could cause the issue, so cleaned them and also the scenery library but this did not improve the loading time. Should I expect much longer loading times with TrueEarth GB than with England? Any advice, much appreciated. The Compton Abbas parking position still puts the plane in a hole in the ground, but there was a fix for FTX England which might still solve this, or will there be P3D updates coming to upgrade the airports?

 

Thanks

Loading times are long due to a coding hangover from FSX where the sim for some reason checks library files against every scenery layer active in the sim.

 

The solution is to use a freeware or other scenery manager to untick all scenery layers you won't be needing for the flight.

 

My loading time is over 6 minutes when all scenery layers active, if I just have the EG airports and the EU scenery regions ticked, it's under 2 minutes.

Load Times,

One other thing I found.  I use Windows 10 1080TI and intel 7700k.  I changed from standard antivirus to Trend Micro.  It absolutely hates p3d  v 4.4 load times.  4 times longer.   Check your antivirus software isn't slowing down the system.  I turn my off for load on p3d v4.
