thanks.
By searching many forums I found two fixes for this (it's actually a pretty common problem).
Fix #1: Change the terrain setting to low
Fix #2: replace client_shaders.zip with the one from Forgotten Hope 2 (however this one makes it impossible to join nearly every server due to modified files)
Edit: If you have AMD graphics (according to forums) turning Catalyst A.I. on standard also helps, I don't have the Catalyst Control Center due to corruption during an install that I'm too lazy to fix so I can't test this one.
Hello Everyone,
I understand your frustration with the video/graphics issues you're facing with the Origin version of BF2. Since you've mentioned that the CD-ROM version of the game with patch 1.5 worked perfectly, it's clear that the issue lies with the digital version downloaded from Origin.
A few things to consider:
File Integrity: Sometimes, the download might not have completed correctly. Try verifying the game files through Origin's interface. This can often fix corrupted or missing files that might be causing the issue.
Graphics Drivers: Ensure that your graphics drivers are up-to-date. Sometimes, newer versions of games or different versions from different sources might interact differently with outdated drivers.
Compatibility Mode: The CD-ROM version may have been running in a different compatibility mode than the one downloaded from Origin. Try running the game in compatibility mode for an older version of Windows (like Windows XP or 7).
Settings Transfer: If you had customized settings in your CD-ROM version, try replicating those settings in the Origin version manually. There might be differences in how settings are saved or applied between the two versions.
Lastly, since you mentioned issues with the downloadable version, have you tried using APK-related tools or settings adjustments that sometimes help in resolving issues with digitally downloaded games? There might be some APK or mod-related settings or tweaks available that can help you replicate the smooth experience you had with the CD-ROM version.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you manage to resolve the issue, or if you need any more assistance.
Best regards!
