Long loading animations

Hello everyone,

I love the animations going with each mission but they take way too long to load.
That's why I always choose "go to outcome", though I know each time I miss a wonderful animation...
Is it only for me? Will this be changed in future updates?

I mean when I " monitor from MC", it's loading something like 3 or 3 and a half lines of points (you know, loading points) with fantastic graphics and 2 with the worst graphic quality...

Thanks

Hello clem,

Does that happen for all missions? How long does a "short" mission take to run (e.g., seasons 2 or 3 of the Extended Sputnik/Explorer)? Do you have any other programs running in the background?

Cheers,

It happened for all missions but I noticed that this happens only the first time I do a mission after an installation (I re-installed my game)
For ex, if I choose fantastic quality and sputnik 1, the animation will be long to load once, but then it's nearly instant.
I don't think it's a bug but a long first time to load.
Thnaks for help

Hello clem,

Notice that the first time you run a mission it usually takes longer. That's because the graphical layers used by the animations are not in your local cache, and so the process takes longer. Still, it shouldn't be more than 15/20 seconds for very long missions (e.g., a Lunar landing).

Cheers,
