Yeah, 5 minutes or more here as well. Be patient.

I posted this in an identical thread in the mods section:
When GWX loads, it takes a long time. GWX increases the number of ships from stock and has to load every one of them. Load times when going from stock to GWX increases significantly. The first time you see this, it looks like the game has locked up. It hasn't though. I thought the same thing first time I loaded up GWX.

On my old rig, when I first installed GWX the load time was about 15 minutes.

My newer rig does it in about 10 minutes-a little better. I've heard people with better computers have load times of 3-5 minutes with GWX. Lucky sobs .

You guys with 3-5 minute load times are killing me.

The other voices in my head keep drowning out the game.
