Try ** email address attached to ** gamespyid, Im using the same one I created for BF1942. It seems to pick up email addresses more than username. Put a check next to "search email", this is at the ingame login.
 
Which files do I have to deleate so I dont have to watch all those videos at startup? I cant remember, somone posted it a cupple of month ago, and I cant be botherd searching through 100+ pages :o
 
Dont delete them as this may casue problems with patching, what to do is rename the .bik files to .backup for instance Dice.bik to dice.backup, then theres the EA.bik, intro.bik and legal.bik

just drag the 'movies ' file out & delete it or put it in my docs or wherever you like.
It causes no probs whatsoever

thing is if i try that, it doesnt bring up the right user i want...and there seems to be no way of changing what user it uses
 
How do i get someone the SF unlocks, ive logged in with his username & loaded a map and got a kill on that map but he still hasnt got the unlocks :confused:

{Edit}

Forget it , it just took awhile to update :rolleyes:

I dont think you can have more then one user per email address account (not for the same game anyway), try another email address

you see i only have 2 emails, tryed them both, both bring up 2 users i havent played before, but yet the2 user's appear using my email address's, this is bugging me as i cant remember the username mainly that i used, really annoying

Edit again, i have 2 usernames on my Gamespy IDs, thats 2 email address's with 2 usernames each....now i know one of them is the one i used, but BF2 only picks up the username i dont want when typing in the email address, is there anyway to change this so it picks up a different one, if not then, does anyone want my BF2 copy and SF copy.

Go to www.gamespy.com or www.ign.com and try to log in, it should give u the choice of username u want to log in with and also the option to delete a username. Failing that ask on planetbattlefield forums, or ea forums.

I believe gamespy merged with ign, and thats why u end up with 2 usernames (if u signed up for both places) (90% sure its IGN).

Right click ** shortcut to battlefield2.exe and select properties. Make sure to add the restart +1 to the "target" field. This is mine copied and pasted:

"E:\Program Files\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +restart 1 +menu 1 +fullscreen 1

Also its here that u can specify a resolution higher than the highest standard res the game supports, i.e. higher than 1280*1024.

that doesnt work, as you cant delete them, ill ask on other forums but this is annoying me, as i only played 2 month ago, and i just cant remember what username and password combo i used.
 
BF2 is annoying me so much since the last patch. The game is really laggy, and i keep getting diconencts all the time. Its impossible to fight with anyone as the view jumps around and you randomly teleport a few meters away from yourself all the time.

I have a constant ping of under 20 and still get this happening. I've tried lowering my graphics, checking my net connect etc. but it has made no difference. Its really annoying because I play BF2 basically everynight, and I haven't been able to for the past few weeks. I can't even play AF which i shelled out a fiver on :mad:

Anyone know if reinstalling it will fix the problem? What order should I install BF, SF, EF, AF, and the patches if I do reinstall?
 
Agree. It's a laggy peice of crap now... they need to sort it!

I got ping of like 17-30 and I lag a lot, it's unplayable and I get all these connection issues it's ridiculous.. :(
 
Guys the first time i installed the 1.3 my gameplay felt vague kind of laggy and i had many CTD's.
I downloaded the full 1.3 patch again from a better source ( Fileshack) and installed it over the top. Now although i still get the odd CTD it is the odd one rather than loads and my gameplay is as it was before the patch.

jim5000 It sounds like you need to clear your cache files to me and reinstall the Full 1.3 patch. BF2 makes multiple cache files when you mess with the settings and these cause conflict.
Like i say my gameplay is sound but i do suffer the odd CTD.

I clear my Graphics cache about once a week, i have a high end Graphics card (X1900XT) 2GB of RAM...and i still get graphics stutters. Granted not to the extent he is describing, but it is as he describes it. (ie jumping several meters, teleport style, mega slow downs) Its not even a drop in frame rates that causes it either as far as i can tell. All my GFX settings are on high with 6x AA and its normally around 80/90 FPS, it will occasionally drop to about 40/50 but thats no where near low enough to cause the stuttering.
 
I have to say i play BF2 on Mediums. My system plays it on High but with the stuttering slow loads ups and vague non contact feel to kills.
On Mediums it runs sweet as, i am first on the map by loads generally. I have 1st spawned with the boats on the carrier and still had time to climb upstairs and take a jet many times. My system is well old but loves BF2 as long as all is on Medium. I think BF2 looks great on mediums and feel totally in touch with my kills. There is this Thud i get that i don't get on higher settings if that makes sense.

So i have to ask, have you tried clearing all cache files and setting everything to medium and playing a few rounds. You may find the smoothness and general improvement of gameplay more rewarding and less likely to CTD.
Just an idea of course and trying to help. I am still playing as much as before and only suffer about 1 CTD a day. Bare in mind i play for hours every day.. :o So 1 is not to bad to suffer. Mine are not actual in game crash out CTD's either. the way it is for me now is i join a server press join game then select every ;) upgrade select my class then when i go in to join in just locks. I have the esc option though which takes me back to the server list and the second time i select a server all is well. These are less frustrating than ingame CTD's to me.
I do notice in the top right screen during map changes a lot of folk getting disconnected and like i said earlier i lose squad members i am only just getting to know which ****** me off.

Something i am noticing since 1.3 is the lack of people online compared to before. This to me is totally down to the CTD's and will be the death of BF2 if not sorted asap.
