    Removing Loading Video's from SF?

    I've got my regular BF2 set up so the video's don't display on startup, can I do the same with SF?

    Also, I've found I see differing numbers of servers depending on which account I use, has anybody else discovered this?

    Thanks.

      Hit Escape? Bypasses any movie, it's one button. :)

        the movie has to load up first though.

        You should be able to just rename the into movies from .bik to .bikb (or somthing similar.

        That way you can just change the extension back to normaly if you want the movies back on.

          Honestly it doesn't take that long, I'm about to go online and waste time by playing a game, a few more seconds won't matter, but I think you're right.

            just a question, what is the first movie? cause it says "Cannot Display Video Mode" for a few seconds and then goes on to the DICE splash.

                Edit your shortcut and at the very end of where is says "target" and has the big line of info add this to the end "+restart 1" without the quotes. That removes the videos, same can be done for vanilla bf2.

                ;-)

                So it should look somethin like this -

                "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/xpack +ignoreAsserts 1 +restart 1

                        Nothin, just rename the whole movies folder and then you can get them back at any time you want.
