How To Speed Up Flight Simulator Load Times
One of the main issues with the current Flight simulator - msfs 2020. Is that it has to load all its assets before the fs2020 will open. This issue is being addressed in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 - the next addition to the series. But there are some tricks to getting that load time downa little bit.
Steam Users
Alright - thefirst trick, issetting the steam properties and general tab, you will want to open launch options and set it to "-FastLaunch".
Microsoft Store Users:
You'll want to go to your desktop, once on your desktop Right right-click and go New then Shortcut then enter this
cmd.exe /C start shell:AppsFolder\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App "-FastLaunch"
The second Trick - is an application called "MSFS Addons Linker" This will set your community folder to a custom mod folder, you are then able to tick and choose what addons you want for that session. The fewer add-ons you have installed the quicker the sim loads overall. You can also set profiles and presets.
Unfortanly there isn't much else that can done other than waiting for updates that will speed the sim loading up. Although the next generation of Microsoft Flight Simulator ( FS2024 ) - I've heard that Asobo is looking at switching to cloud-based loading for the core assets of the game. This will dramatically improve loading times.
