so this loading time is pretty killer at least on my rig and some others I've talked to. I just checked with the windows defrag utility and it says my EoD objects_client.zip file has 822 fragments. This may be the solution to reducing those load times.

Re: long verifying client data time
I've been experiencing this too. I've got 2gigs of RAM and it never takes me that long to load maps in other mods. -
Re: long verifying client data time

The loading itself doesnt take long time, but the verifying...
aint it possible to extract objects_client.zip to decrease loadingtimes?Comment

Re: long verifying client data time
Night and day.
You know I recently upgraded my pc and grabbed an Intel this route, one of the new ones. DDR2800 OCZ, 680i board, and an 8800. I started out with 1GB of RAM. I loaded pretty fast but when I got to verifying it slowed down. I use to load and verify faster on my old pc with 2GB of DDR and it took less then 25 Seconds. I got 2GB of DDR2 instantly I get in seconds. It takes me around 20 seconds to load, and verifying is like 5-10.Comment

Re: long verifying client data time
Battlefield 2 modification client verification will take upto or beyond twice the amount of time required to verify Battlefield 2 vanilla. Why?...
When using client verification using non-opitmized MD5 verification (2142 has an optimized version, BF2 doesn't), your PC must byte check all of the following files, when loading a mod with client verification, it has do this for BF2 and then the mod files, thus it may have to MD5 about 1+ gigs of data. With the current processor average speed, and the speed of most hard drives, this will take a bit of time. The larger the mod, the longer it will take.

Re: long verifying client data time
I don't know what the problem is with mine. My HD's are fine, they are not fragmented at all, I have 1.5gb ram, have decent graphics card, and EoD takes like 7-10 min for verifying client data.Comment
