Re: Found a website about BF2 lag

if you rename the bf2.exe file you will have to manually edit your xfire_games.config file

[4578]
LongName=Battlefield 2
ShortName=bf2
Icon=bf2.ico
LauncherDirKey=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electro nic Arts\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\InstallDir
LauncherExe=BF2.exe

It is raelly good to do the BAT file trick ?


and what you do if you dont want the BAT trick anymore ? Just delete the bat file and change the shortcut icon ?

Re: Found a website about BF2 lag

Renaming the exe didn't change anything at all .. other than being a total pain in the ass changing all of my shortcuts, nostromo and MX1000 profiles, and ASE settings

The REASON we're all clambering for performance tweaks these days is SF and the dreaded v1.12 patch

Re: Found a website about BF2 lag

I changed my Exe too. I didn't notice a difference. And then I tried the pb check thing and in the white box it said it was an unkown command. I even printed it out so im not typing the wrong thing. Ps. This was in 1.0.3.

Re: Found a website about BF2 lag

I just want to add that those tips are very dangerous and not all all smart.

- Setting is to High priority is a terrible idea if you are running XFire, TeamSpeak or Ventrillo inthe background, the chance of a system freezing up is very high.

- Renaming the BF2.exe is a sick idea, if you want to patch or uninstall it will cause serious problems and I doubt it won't without just that. It's not changed in the registry, so this tip is absolutely rediculous.

- AGP Aperture Size gives issues when at 256 MB, though you can consider trying it.

- That PB tip is indeed a good idea, though very common.

Re: Found a website about BF2 lag

Don't do the /high bat file one, it wrecked my performance, even on single player.

I just removed the /high part from the batch files, I cbf doing it all over again.

Re: Found a website about BF2 lag

**UPDATE FROM THE AUTHOR**

instead of making it a high priority one, try changing it to /low

for some this causes better performance, please try this instead

ALSO

my mistake, itis pb_sleep 500 not pb_sleep500

thanks,

Re: Found a website about BF2 lag

How 'bout not fuk with the base priority at all. Basically when process priority is lowered it means other processes get more cpu time instead of the low-priority process when cpu usage starts to be 100%.
It could work differently on winders but until i see the reasoning behind running it /low i wouldn't use it.

Re: Found a website about BF2 lag

I did these and it really started getting choppy...I'm gonna try to change back to default..

Re: Found a website about BF2 lag

Tried the high priority thing, BF2 loaded approx. 4 times faster, no difference to map loading, hard to tell if it affected game performance.

The PB tweak seemed to reduce stuttering in-game...

Nice tips, cheers :)

It tells you what to do with xfire and rather than renaming the exe, just create a copy and use that in the bat file. Should be no problems with patching then; obviously you'll have to create a new copy of the exe if you apply a patch...
