No that’s not it, in prior engine versions when I disable AllowStaticLighting, it didn’t take any longer time for me to load the engine, it started right away regardless. The longest I ever waited was two minutes, certainly not the 15+ minutes that I have waited now.

EDIT: I’m not sure the shaders are the fault, because in the task manager it doesn’t show any shader compiling task at all. It only shows 3x UnrealGame task + 1 Unreal Editor task.
And the hardrive runs at 100% all the time.

Also, without disabling AllowStaticLighting, the editor just takes me only 4 seconds to load up.

Hello spacegojira,

I do believe that Mellnik is correct and the loading time is likely related to the shaders. This same behavior occurs in 4.20 the first time you disable Allow Static Lighting. After doing this the first time and letting it complete, the shaders are compiled and stored so doing this again should not result in a simulated freeze such as this. If you continue to encounter the issue, please report this issue to us through a Bug Submission with as many details as you can to reproduce this, as I am currently seeing no delay after doing this the first time.
