Good morning,

I've switched from 2023 to 2025 beta and the first thing I noticed was the effect on modeler startup time. I put the VR and Lwcad.tlog in the plugins folder, I don't have VR, I don't know if that might be the issue. Is there anything I can do to get the load speed back?

Lightwave 2025.03
Windows 11, AMD 3900X, 128gb, 4060ti 16gb

Thank you for reporting this.
Please remove the Architron LW plugins from the LightWave plugin folder and keep them outside of it, as third-party plugins are better stored separately.
If the problem persists, please let me know.

Hi Viktor,

I tried installing the plugins in a separate folder, but Lightwave is noticeably slower to start.

On Win11 24H2, AMD Ryzen 7 7435HS, 32GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050

Thank you!
