paynterf Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Windows 10, non-Steam version. When I click Play, I get the 'Do you want to allow this app to make changes....?' dialog. I click OK, and then KSP seems to take forever to load everything up. If I come back the next day and want to play again, I have to go through the same procedure (and delay). Why is this?

JB182 Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 that is loading, it also happen to me. loading will take longer when you mod your game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curveball Anders Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 The only thing to check is if you have any unused but not disabled network adapters (firewire is a classic case). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does an unused adaptor have to do with the way KSP loads up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears that Unity performs some form av sweep for possible drives, including network ones. So if there's unused but not disabled network adapter it hangs for quite some time before giving up.

That sounds like a message from the file 'Launcher.exe'. Launcher never worked for me, getting stuck somewhere before starting KSP.exe, so I start KSP.exe itself. (Starting KSP takes a bit over 2 minutes for my Thinkpad L460 laptop with a hybrid drive.) I've been reading this forum for years and somehow got the idea that Launcher.exe never works for anyone. Maybe the problem that prevented it from completing for me, makes loading take longer for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 I thought launcher.exe was the steam one? Might be wrong. OP, what sort of times are you talking about? Anything from 1 min through to 30 mins (yes 30) is considered ‘normal’ for KSP depending on your setup/mods etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
