Re: Battlefield 3/4 insanely long loading times

Hey, thanks for replying, however i have already tried all of those fixes, and there is no difference. And yes, BF4, as well as BF3, are running with the 765M.

Came back with 87ms average, and my connection has never been in question. Always a steady 40-60ms on the server i play on, never lag nor rubberband. But thanks anyway :D

Any recent installs / updates or changes to your PC?

I don't think your PC likes me.

Please can you list all fixes you have tried?

Thought you'd ask me that. I probably couldn't even if i tried. Basically, i've read every possible thread concering this topic in Battlelog and here. I've watched atleast 50 videos on optimizing the laptop/PC for gaming, changed what i strictly thought was necessary, went into the Nvidia Control panel and messed around with the options in there. I've cleaned out temporary files, added/removed config files from the folders, ran countless programs to clean up the registry, and shut down unecessary background programs that use up RAM and/or physical memory. I've set BF3/4 to High in the task manager (Realtime didn't want to work :D) Looked into overclocking, didn't like what i read so i skipped that. That's what i did, however general it might seem, i went far deeper, i just don't remember everything i've done over the months.   http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/forum/threadview/2832654347761187337/ (example of the threads) I disabled origin in game, reinstalled the game two times, repaired it atleast 5 times

Have you checked the integrity of your harddrive with the build in Windows tool? and do it report errors when run?

Also, you might want to check the Windows system files integrity while you are at it.

Did the first one, loading the game now to see if there is a difference. Doing the second one as i type this. And ugh..game is 30+ gigs.. It'll take a day and a half.. Suppose it's worth it..

They both came up fine, with no problems. Should i still reinstall the game? Game still takes 5+ minutes to load..

Lets go back to the drawing board, 

See my attatchment then do the following.

To boost CPUs being used by game follow this,

> Open My Docs

> Press BF4

> Settings

> Open profsave_profile in wordpad

> Go down till you see the line gstrender.texture quality 

> Under this line change the processors being used to 1 if you have a dual cpu, 3 for a quad, 5 for a 6 & 7 for and 8 core

I would suggest a clean boot: http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-clean-boot-your-pc/

Also, using your taskmanager is your harddrive working when you load?

Nothing in the attachment made a difference, tried the CPU "boost" didn't do anything, then i realized it was not saved properly, had to make it .cfg and so far all my games have been loading under 30seconds. If this works i can't award you with enough XP.

Thanks man!! It finally works :D I was waiting 5, 10, 15 minutes being tortured by my clanmates talking strategies and getting owned...I cannot express my gratitude properly. Thanks a lot. "Bro hug"

NP, I am happy, I have acomplished the infamous long loading time!

Hmm..it seems to work one time, then it reverts back to the normal loading time of 5+ minutes. I have to go back and mess with the settings for it to work again, (allow BF4 to run on admin, compatability mode) which resets all my key bindings and settings, so i have to go into Geforce and re-optimize the game. 

It could also be a power management issue since it's a laptop. Try and make sure everything harddrive, cpu and gpu related is set to max performance.

Everything is at 100 (max, obviously) I made it so during optimization for gaming. It seems to speed up my first loading screen by 75%, then goes back to the normal 10min+ at the next loading screen, same map or not.

Nobody has any ideas? Hmm..

Normally I would suggest moving Origin+game to another harddrive, but since your are on a laptop that's not really an option.

Well i managed to fix the issue by turning off DirectX, but now i have low fps :P The irony..Well i'm looking into that fix now, any ideas while i look?

You could try swapping you HDD for an SSD.

Already ruled the SSD out, don't feel like spending anything else just for BF4. And now the game is back to long loading times but good FPS..lol

Try Defragmenting your HDD,

If you need to defragment your hard disk

You cannot turn off DirectX. The game can either use DirectX or Mantle, but Mantle is not an option in your case since you have a Nvidia graphics card. In other words, I have no idea what you have done since you don't write very descriptive so it's very hard to help you.
