game gets stuck on the loading screen and never progresses.
Hello, I'm currently using 'Just Fly Redux' until the Pak Utility Mod is working again. The main feature I really like in PAK is the fast flight mode, with no stutters or lag. I also believe it's the only mod that works immediately upon launching the game.
I tried EasyCheat for flying, but you always have to re-enable it, just like with 'Just Fly Redux', - you need to press space, or else your character will fall from the height you left in your previous save.
So yeah, if you're looking for simple, fast flying, 'Just Fly Redux' offers that with no hassle and no need for special console commands. But if you're looking to unlock things or want more options, EasyCheat works well for me. For now, I'll just wait for the PAK update. I'm sure there are easier, better and faster solutions out there, but I'm only sharing what I know and have tested myself.

Tell us about SML 3.10 mods that work in SML 3.11 here!
I've tested it multiple times and only with this mod I experience a 'screen freeze.' I have no more than 20 mods installed total and I wouldn’t consider myself an advanced user. However, on my specific system, this mod (Traffic Lights and Solar Tractor) seems to be the cause of the issue. That said, I’m aware that Windows 11 updates often break games and mods, so it could be due to multiple factors - just guessing. 🙂

My apologies for missing some information. Yes, that’s correct - it's on the new experimental version 1.1 and SML 3.11

Good day Andre
Thank you for all the amazing mods and the work you do. I'm not sure if this has already been mentioned, but I wanted to let you know that the "Traffic Lights and Solar Tractor" mod is causing the game to freeze on the loading screen. The only way I can get back to my PC is by doing a full restart.
I've been struggling with this issue for a few days, and today I finally figured out what's causing the freeze.

game gets stuck on the loading screen and never progresses.
Yesterday, I followed one of the suggested steps and ran the game with only SML enabled. After about 20 minutes on the loading screen, the game finally started. I then re-enabled all my mods, but the loading screen got stuck for 50 minutes, so I turned off my PC.
Today, I tried again with just SML, and this time it loaded much faster. I enabled the mods one by one, and surprisingly, everything worked. Through this process, I discovered that only two of my 20 mods are causing issues: "Pak Utility" (which I’ve found an alternative for) and "Traffic Light and Solar Tractor". When the latter is enabled, the game gets stuck on the loading screen.
I’m not sure why the game didn’t work yesterday even with all mods off, but today it’s working fine. I’m just glad it’s mostly resolved now - the game runs normally again with only those two mods disabled. I have no explanation for why it didn’t work yesterday but works today, even though I followed the exact same steps.

Of course, I will upload it now. Thank you for your help. Just for your information, SMM shows only one mod enabled, but in the game itself, the main screen displays two mods as enabled (though I'm not sure if this is intentional). Another point to consider: I can only access debug mode after restarting the computer. When the game gets stuck on the loading screen, I'm unable to return to Windows or access any other windows, only a restart via Task Manager works.

I've tried a few options:
Disabled all mods manually – the game gets stuck on the loading screen.
Disabled all mods except SML – still stuck on the loading screen.
When I switch mods off entirely in SMM, the game loads properly.
So I guess something isn't compatible between my PC, the game, SMM, or SML itself. I can only run the game with all mods turned off. But that's fine, I might just wait until the release and see how things go then.
