Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
Dear ladies and gents,

I am experiencing an issue when loading a game which is by no any means a showstopper but it is bugging me. I was away from the game for a little while so I cannot remember if this was the same behavior before.
This is my problem:
When the game loads, my moving parts in the city like traffic (cars), airplanes, seagulls are nowhere to be seen. It’s a ghost town. After I unpause the game they appear as soon as couple of seconds pass by and then it takes some time to build up the traffic. Parking lots (custom assets) are also empty and fill up after some time. There are no issues after the games runs for couple of minutes just this behavior which I had described.
Something which I also noticed is that the games is always paused after loading has finished, even when the option in the main menu deactivated is. Is the normal or not? I remember before the game would start on its own.
I have most of the DLCs including the P&P, Skyscrapers and Korea. The only one I don’t have is the seaside resorts, map pack and radios.
Number of assets: 640.

What I have done to try to isolate the issue:
Tried disabling all mods except loading screen mod.
Tried disabling some modes while leaving others one (TMPE and Network Extensions 2)
Uninstalling all mods but compatibility report, harmony 2.2.1, patch loader.
Created a test city with only vanilla roads (because I am running network extensions 2 – I know, I know I will uninstall it this weekend and use the workshop network extensions 2 roads replacement roads).
Game files verification done.

The only thing I did not do is a clean reinstall with manually deleting all of the possible leftovers. I can se after I re-subscribe that most of the settings in the mods are preserved.

I have following mods:
81 Tiles 2 TESTING
Advanced Building Level Control 1.2
Automatic Pedestrian Bridge Builder V2.0 [Beta]

BOB, the Tree and Prop Replacer 0.9.7

and what are your Loading Screen Mod settings? I'm pretty sure there's one setting there that doesn't load vehicles from the beginning

Hi Lucododosor,​


thank you for your answer. I think you solved the problem.
The settings were to remove the cims and vehicles - but I did not enable this, at least i think so.
As soon as I disabled the three options in the screenshot the situation was like I was expecting before.

Best regards!

Glad to know it worked! Maybe you enabled it at some point and then forgot, it happens.
