A tweak guide. Check it out it may give you an edge.

 

Good Gamer site. Maybe some of you have been here but it was my first time and the forums are good.

Good find ...this has been stickied...

Yay! My first sticky.

meh, neither were too too helpful. The first just skimmed over all the tabs in the menu and told you some of the basics.

and the second link told you the major basis of each class, something you could probably figure out after 10 minutes with each class. Also, I watched the videos, and the girl there really itched at me because it was obvious she knew nothing about it, and was just reading off some kind of cue card or something.

I was really hoping for some video or console tweaks to get me more performance or something

these guides would be good for new players, but beyond that it's just a refresher

Thank you Klink, as being a new player and starting to figure out this game these are very helpful to me. And to anyone else you is just starting to enjoy this game.

Ya, guys this is fairly simple stuff but could help new players with the hints.

Thanks for that Kolonel. And finally our tp in barracks.

 

Thanks Caste, you helped me decide if I really need to "spend" more time reading those links.

A permanent same min/max page file setting would be preferable at start of drive, like older speed disk would do if you set "no slack". With slack set and swap set for win control it logically assumed best to leave it after all files. 2006 speed disk has none of these options. Does terrible job in my opnion after comparing for few days with other defraggers.

 

I found that Diskeeper is good if you have swap set zero and disabled, becasue it faster then others and does better job of consolidating big game files together. But it still leaves some unconsolidated free space.

 

So, I found with these free demos, it's best with Abexo as followup defragger. With no swap still, run diskeeper few times. Then fire up Abexo and enter options to manage system files. Upon it finishing work after 2 reboots, DON'T WORRY PC MAY SEEM UNRESPONSIVE FOR LONGER THEN USUAL, check and you will see 99% of free space after swap it has put in for you after all files.

 

Granted it sets swap as win managed. But now with it showing after all, no big deal to rest swap bigger. Either Diskeeper or Abexo hel pfile told me that SWAP MINIMUM should be 1.5 TIMES the RAM, in proper amounts like 512, 1024, 1536, 2048, etc ... the MAXIMUM should be 3 TIMES the Ram.

 

I just finished THE 10 TIPS OF TWEEKING FOR BF2. All I had before was movie disable. It sure took awhile doing this tips carefully.

 

I just finished testing BF2 in my usual single player Dalian corner for max fps test same as all other tests. (console, renderer.drawfps 1) (0 for fps off or they stay on even in multiplayer). Results were same in corner = 15/66. What surprised me was when I moved out into 6 my team seing 6 enemy, instead of dropping to 10 fps like it used to, it stayed at 15/66.

 

More surprise testing it online in 60/64 player server showing server ping of 70. I got in the game in 1.5 minutes instead of the usual 2-3 minutes !! Furthermore, despite occaisional "bits" of lag, 4 players with pings 150ish and sometimes 200ish, every else and me showed in tab screen as around 50-70. Well, my fps showing when I glanced up under heavy defense and attack, (12) moving around in my field of vision, WAS A GREATLY INCREASED 25 FPS !!

 

Go figure. I figure those tips helped improve single fps 50 % when busy. But online busy, with mostly good pings (70), 100 % FPS IMPROVEMENT ;-)

 

Thanks. Sorry I didn't take the great time to try them sooner. ;-) I'll still get lag I suspect from internet and too many high pingers. But nice to see such improvement. "The 10 tips of BF2 Tweeking" DO HELP. Be very careful with the registry edit part. Have restore point or backup ready first. :-)
