@RayD_01 spotted that the cache folder has been moved to the \BattfieldGameData.kin %appdata% folder out of MyDocuments folder. Guys let me know if you can use OneDrive again!
CHANGE THE FOLDER THATS IS SYNC IN YOUR ONE DRIVE / GOOGLE DRIVE ->> SETTINGS
I'm pretty sure, as has already been noted several times in this thread, that process only excludes folders from your local computer and not the cloud-based OneDrive server.
@syn7hwolfyes you need to exclude document/bf2042 folder from it.
so only the folders that still are included will be backup to onedrive.
That should solve your upload/download from onedrive and bf2042
Hi, mate. I appreciate the links and threads, thanks. Unfortunately, however, I have seen these before and they do not provide an adequate solution for my particular circumstances (nor, I suspect, for some of the previous posters both in this thread and others).
The issue is that I do not wish to unlink my PC from OneDrive completely, nor do I wish to exclude my entire Documents folder from the OneDrive backups (as there is no ability to drill down to individual folder level when excluding files). There are a multitude of reasons for this, which I wont bore you with but they mainly pertain to my own job/work, which renders both of these potential solutions unfeasible work arounds--as it would basically require me to remove MS OneDrive entirely from my work desktop simply to play one, single game.
Ideally, as others have stated, DICE would be able to move the relevant cache data folder to AppData or 2042's own install path/folder, as many other games do. It really is a tedious annoyance, and the idea of the player having to actively remove functionality from entirely unrelated programs on your PC, just in order to get around it, does not strike me as particularly user friendly.
and if ya make a another account at that computer , with restriction so onedrive is not available for that account but the game is ?
then you dont have those problem , ya only need to sign in with that new/extra account !!!
make sure the game is available at that new account (even disable all other programs, for some extra boost pc/gfx/fps even more (smiley))
and moving all to appdata is not what i like.
very often i cleanup the folders in APPDATA , then i need to wait for shaders download everytime i startup the game.
Or when people got a tool that cleanup appdata (sub fiolders automaticly) everytime ,
you realy need to check your onedrive , reinstall it , and cfg your folders who need to be backup !!!
if ya reinstall one drive , dont forget to backup your files in DOCUMENTS first.
you could copy/paste them , could take some time , or CUT/PASTE it , this is much faster
also handy
