I have reinstalled FiveM and recently I have the error that the game unloads for too long without being able to start it.
I started the FxDK servr to test Scritps, then opened the Game View tab. As usual the game unloads first and then starts, but lately the unloading takes forever without anything happening. I waited 5 hours today and it still unloads. I have tried restarting it etc but it still takes forever to load.
Did you stop the server or open a .fxworld at any point in between? The game shouldn’t be doing unloading especially at the first time you start your server.
I’m not sure how far off the reworked editor experience is by now, but there’s a switch to VS Code (instead of Theia, which is deprecated) coming sometime soon and probably a lot of underlying system changes too that may fix a few things.
