Loading Freeze

[Tayto]

After i load the game and select which custom game to play it loads then freezes either if i use a planet or space platform just no response, have udated my driver using geforce also followed the link to the site that the game itself said to and it did nothing

Any help would be great

I get a freeze when loading bigger worlds with planets, the longest it lasts is about a minuet and windows will throw a "this program has stopped responding" message. But if i wait and dont touch anything eventually it carrys on loading. Maybe try leaving it loading for a few mins see if it does eventually :)

loading times will vary greatly, depending on the complexity (size/type/features) that you have selected. the little game loading wheel will spin sporadically while loading, as it shifts data back and forth, and appears to freeze shortly before the world activates and you can play.

Alot of it depends on your system specs.

I have a very large solar system map, with a huge build, that takes almost 10 minutes to load.
I also have an empty space map (with no asteroids) that takes about 30 seconds.

If the game has truly frozen after a long waiting period, you can try examining the SpaceEngineers.log in your %AppData/Roaming/SpaceEngineers folder, to try and determine if the game actually locked up, or where the game was struggling to load up the world.

AS Karmaterrorᵁᴷ has mentioned, just letting it process patietly until it either gets into the world, or crashes to desktop will be your first step.

Thanks Guys but had to try and reinstall it as when i tried to play again it made noise in the back ground but didnt load the game at all

Also this is the link it gave me

But once i tried to load and run it, it popped saying issue with my processer

Ok that sounds more like you have a graphics detection issue, rather than a loading issue.
It's trying to use your onboard (CPU) graphics rather than your dedicated Nvidia or Radeon card.

check the pinned topics here:

to see if any of those ones apply to you.

Looked at what u likned to but game still don't load corret just has the game pointer in the top left of the screen and stays on the desktop screen while playing music

that part sounds almost like it set the game window resolution to 1x1

you can try and delete your SpaceEngineers.cfg, from
C:>users>[yourname]>AppData>Roaming>SpaceEngineers
then verify the game cache through Steam
start SE, and it should generate a fresh game config file.
(you will need to set your in-game options and prefs again).

Good to hear you got it running.

The second part, I can't really help with, other than to suggest adjusting your graphics options to the lowest, and slowly turning them up a little at a time, until you find a acceptable balance between visuals and performance.
