It happens to me too and I have 4gb ram which should allow quick loading times... I think its just the way it is.

It happens ALL the time tho. Like, in 30 sec it will be 1%. Then in a Minute it will be 3%. By 40% you litteraly sat there for 15 minutes. There HAS to be a fix. It's not like this in vanilla

Oh! Just to let you know when I've waited a long time it got stuck at 62% for gemotries, if that helps at all.

Edit: It said error from server, maybe that's it, I'll see if I can find a solution.

That's just how the "error reading from server" looks like when you're loading a map, if it gets stuk like this next time, I'd suggest you just alt-f4 out and restart a game and hope for no problems... Provided it's a semi-rare issue.

As it's the gamespy's "let's move t3h sewerzzz" issue there's nothing to be done, afaik. It seems like cleaning the cashe(C:\users\your_username\documents\battlefield 2\mods\bf2\cashe) folder may help you get rid of the error for like a round though.

Edit: if it happens all the time- it might be something else though...

Alright, it happens all the time but how do you clear the cache? There a tut somewhere?

Open up your Documents go to BF2 Mods bf2 Cache then delete everything in that.

Its not in the program files part its in My Documents

John I know that but in the cache folder there is one with random letters and numbers and that, do I delete the folder or stuff inside?

Yeah delete the folder

Geometries are the longest load times for me. I think it has something to do with the graphics.
