Line 190: We currently believe that the reason why loading screen timeouts and 'Orange Sidewinders' are occurring, is because some of the resource files for Odyssey appear to have initially deployed to Steam incorrectly, during the update process. This is another possible fix for the Orange Sidewinder error after update 4 for steam users (by The_Gump_AU):<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/o1uct8/steam_users_with_orange_sidewinder_after_update_4/</ref> ~~# Verify your game files from within the LAUNCHER, not through Steam. It's under the OPTION menu at the top of the launcher.~~ ~~# I first tried verifying my files in Steam and the constant Orange Sidewinder error wouldn't go away. Doing it via the launcher worked.~~ ~~# Verifying the files resulted in a few downloads. Something appears to have gone wrong with the update downloading over Steam.~~ # EDIT: Disable Virtual Cache in the options before verifying the files, not doing so can slow down the process a lot on slow PC's. Also, it may take a while for the launcher to get past "preparing for update" (20+ min on old hard disks (it's less than a minute on NVMe). I didn't disable the cache but I also have a very fast M.2 NVMe drive. <br /> * Related: a fix if the launcher is stuck on '[https://customersupport.frontier.co.uk/hc/en-us/articles/360020793039-The-launcher-is-stuck-on-Preparing-for-update-when-I-try-to-install-the-Odyssey-Alpha- preparing for update]'.<ref>https://customersupport.frontier.co.uk/hc/en-us/articles/360020793039-The-launcher-is-stuck-on-Preparing-for-update-when-I-try-to-install-the-Odyssey-Alpha-</ref> ==Mods==
