Is Shader Preloading Normal for Game Pass Versions of Remastered?

-

I’ve noticed that every time I launch the Game Pass version of Remastered, it takes around 5-7 minutes to preload shaders, even though the game runs perfectly otherwise. It’s becoming quite annoying! Has anyone else experienced this issue? I’ve browsed through this and the original subreddit, and it seems like a few others are dealing with the same thing. Any tips on solving this?

Totally normal for me! The game runs smoothly, but yeah, that shader preloading always takes a few minutes every time I start it up.

This started happening to me after the last update too. I managed to fix it by adding both the game directory and the My Documents folder for Oblivion Remastered as exceptions in Norton. It seems to be working better now!

This is definitely a bug. Interestingly, I don’t have that issue on my end. Maybe it depends on the setup?

Are you using the PC Game Pass version too?

ShaderSlayer23 -

Yeah, I’m running into the same frustrating issue. I’ve tried basically everything, and nothing has worked so far. I read a suggestion from Briar_Knight about adding exceptions to my anti-virus, but I only have Defender, not Norton. Still waiting to see if that helps!

QuestionMaster98 -

Let me know if that works! I’m curious if it might help.

LoadingTimePro -

I feel you on this one. It sucks, especially on devices like the ROG Ally where loading times are already a pain. I’m still looking for a solid fix myself!
