Re: Object,textures, lighting loading issue in BF 2042

The game drive is a SATA HDD. I reinstalled windows, so yes the shaders were cleared. I am not sure if you are talking about shaders in steamlibrary folder, I haven't deleted anything there. Is there any personal info in dxdiag that I need to omit before posting ?

First, please confirm if the tile textures in redacted map load immediately on your PC when you just spawn on the russian side on LOW preset. Please list the specs you used when you test this.

@AngryGoliath72  Got no issues with textures at my system.
Here are my specs:

Gigabyte Aorus Z690 Ultra (1.0)
13th Gen i13900K
2x 16 Gb Kingston Fury Beast 6000Mts
2x Samsung SSD 980 Pro 2TB (No heatsink)
Gigabyte RTX 4090
Ethernet Controller I225-V (2.5Gb)
Headset Logitech Pro X 2 LightSpeed
Monitor Asus PG32UCDM (240 Hz all set Ultra ingame)
Keyboard Razer Huntsman Elite (optical switches)
Mouse Razer DeathAdder V2

Network connection 1Gb Fiber

Cheers Man !

PS got dxdiag included from my system and photo from pc case 😉

Here is my system info file -

No I am sure it will not help. Nobody keeps games on ssd in a budget system and according to me HDD is more than enough for gaming.

@AngryGoliath72SSD read/write speeds are much higher.
Unless ya got an slow SSD (gen3 or even lower).
Ya could also get more performance in windows by disbaling apps/services.

To get more performance with windows (ya will loose serveral options ingain for it) ya could use https://atlasos.net/
Read first what it does for you and what options are being disabled / not installed.
It will Modify youre current windows to a windows light version !!! <-- more/better performance but less apps/options in youre current windows !!!!!!!!!!

Cheers

PS make sure ya delete BF2042 SHADERS, location at (enable to view hidden files and folders first)
C:\Users\YOURE+USERNAME\AppData\Local\BattlefieldGameData.kin-release.Win32

Nothing related to windows speed. It is either MSI or AMD that ruined my gaming experience with BIOS updates. Here is the result after clearing shader cache -

Thanks for all the replies, i appreciate your help. Currently i have overclocked my RAM to 3200MHz and i'll see if that helps. If not, i will surely buy an ssd. One more thing, are you sure network performance can affect the loading of textures and lighting ?

When you play redacted, do you notice a bluish lighting before it loads all the correct colors of the area ? Happens to me occasionally.

Your system configuration is very different, i doubt that if there is issue with the game on some configurations, even SSD will not help. My CPU is overkill for the gtx 1650. The texture loading issues come and go but they are less on AGESA 120Ca that just released for my motherboard.

Is there any other place where i can post where more people with low end specs share their views ?

Play on low settings and then look for graphical issues. I am almost sure it is backend game related and not my system related. 

@AngryGoliath72  ya could modify youre current windows version with https://atlasos.net/

read the instruction, cause windows will be stripped to a light version, ya loose many options but gain performance for youre system/games/software !

Cheers

ps check this and post screenshots please !!!

@AngryGoliath72  At the second screen shot youre TN value and LAT. is sky high.
Youre LATENCY is 700+ that laggs youre game, TN high vlaues make lagg and probarly loading/display issues.
TN is client related issues.
Some how youre game network (latency) got issue! Are ya wireless ? Or Cable (utp) , what typ of connection do ya use, DSL ? Broadband ? Fiber ?
TN - TimeNudge <-- something with youre system "cant keep it up" or got issues during some processes !

Cheers

I have fiber connection and i use wifi adapter (wireless), in my room i get 25mbps speed. One more question - If you had the same issue on your system would you be bothered with it ? I measured with clock, it takes 27 secs to load in full textures.

Anyone with similar experience ??

You didn't answer 2nd question - is 27 secs of load time of textures enough time to get you stop playing the game if you were me ??

One thing i noticed that at nighttime in my region the problem gets little more worse. Even battlefield 4 had issues loading ground textures in singleplayer, a much smaller game. I think DICE needs to sort this for future games otherwise even ssd will have problems.

@AngryGoliath72  I got NO issues with Graphics and loadtime as you do.
But we cannot compare youre systen and network with that i use.
I also got Fiber , but i use UTP45 (cat8 cable) , and i got 1000Mb download and 1000MB upload.
And also much faster system . nvme "drives" and much faster memory + cpu.

You could contact youre isp to check if there is some issue with youre connection, from them to youre house, or some HOP issues with EA servers !!!

Cheers

ps do this:

Press Wndows key + R, now typ CMD , hold down CTRL+SHIFT button and press ENTER.
In the UAC windows select YES.
Now enter this command

tasklist>C:\serviceslist.txt

At youre C: drive is now a file, serviceslist.txt , post this file please !

I have attached the file.

@AngryGoliath72  Hello,

i do see ya use AVAST VIRUS scanner and it seems avast could "eat up" some pc performance.
Uninstall Avast (windows virus/defender is good enough those days) use this tool https://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?l=en&urlName=Uninstall-AVG-software-Clear-Remover&supportType=home

I also see ONEDRIVE active in the background that could "eat up" youre network performance, make sure ONEDRIVE isnt booting with windows

Disable this startup with https://www.revouninstaller.com/nl/revo-uninstaller-free-download/
also disable as much asd possible other apps from booting with windows. (select TOOLS, AUTORUN MANAGER in Revo)
(download/install as portable version so you dont need to install, run revo as an ADMINMISTRATOR)

Cheers

PS use windows security , this is good as all other virus/malware scanners.
Those 3rd party tools only consume a lot of PC and NETWORK performance.
Make sure ya check for windows updates to update youre windows security and delete all other stuff !

Look Rokebo, stop protecting EA and giving me random recommendations. From morning to early evening the game runs fine and textures load within 2 secs. The TN value is also lower, here is a proof of that- https://imgur.com/a/g33M2zH

After the stated time span the game starts running like crap indicated by a higher TN value of 26ms.

So it is NOT my GPU, CPU, RAM, or HDD issue, the game itself is 100gigs of GARBAGE and EA did not improve their tech in over 11 years after battlefield 4. I will quit playing this game and vomit about it in steam reviews. Never had such issues in Halo infinite.
