Time to load the game is insane

Won't Fix

Hello!

I haven't played Space Engineers for a while, I came back and I really enjoy it. Only huge issue is that the game takes way too long to load. I'm at the moment trying to load a new game (I've got all DLC's except for Deluxe) and it's 5 minutes in and the game hasn't even loaded yet!

I'm playing on gaming laptop which was manufactured at 2022, specs isn't an issue.

I did use Steam's verify integrity of files button, it all went well

I have the same bug

Seems to have fixed it when I enabled Experimental mode through game settings. Look into it anyway!

Current state is that I have to restart Space engineers 3-4 times just to enter the world. Only then world get's loaded in ~30 seconds, other times it takes 8 and more minutes, never had enough patience to wait it out

Hello, Vincent!

Thank you for writing to us, and we apologize that you're experiencing this issue.

Are you using any plugins in the game? If so, kindly remove/disable the plugin, load an Empty World, and recheck if the load time changes.

If there is no plugin in the game and you still experience slow loading, kindly try the following workarounds that might resolve the issue ;

Delete SpaceEngineers.cfg file

It means your game configuration will be deleted
You can access your SpaceEngineers.cfg by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers.

Delete ShaderCache folder

Same access as SpaceEngineers.cfg
Back up your whole Space Engineers Roaming folder and delete it
Restart Steam
Reinstall VC Redist 2017
Update graphic drivers
Reinstall the game
Make sure your operating system is fully updated

If the issue persists, please send us the log files when you experience this issue.
