Title: Lag problems gone
Post by: CoolHand on September 29, 2005, 09:42:03 PM
I tested to connection - it was fine. In three hours I had only 0,5 packet loss and an average return time of 170.

I defragged the drive, cleaned the BF2 cahce, killed some unnecessary services, turned Zonealarm completely off (hoping my Linksys router will keep hackers out :-)  ), cleaned the harddrive of unecessary programs, temp files, etc.

I then * swallow * turned the graphics a bit down. Lag gone.

I will now up the graphics a bit at a time, to see. Hopefully I will get i a bit higher (used to run nicely on high settings, so I hope...)

YEEAHHHH!   :D

Thanx for the helpful tips, guys.

PS: I just ordered another gig of ram... can't hurt to have 2 gigs....   :D

Once you're settled on a resolution and graphics settings remember to delete all the saved graphics pre-compiles BF2 creates and run the game once more to let it optimise :) also helps!

Suicidal which files are these and where do you delete them?
