I did wonder why on map changes BF1942 temporarily shows a picture of my desktop in 640x480 mode (the gfx mode i use to play) complete with an extra prog window that has no description in it. Thx Zarj .
Ahhh, this explains a lot, always takes me ages on map change, with only 256ram in me system, prolly swapping from here to kingdom come. Usually first in by a long way in games like HL.
I wouldn't make the email too harsh as DICE might have been forced to program it that way for copy protection. I read in an interview with the lead programmer than they should be doing a LINUX dedicated server, so the least we can hope for is that is sorted.
On another note, the game does seem to have a WON id type system. A friend tried using a key gen to play online, sometimes he could get on. Took about 5 different keys, but as soon as the map changed he got kicked off the server for invalid cd key . Needless to say he has orderd is own copy . I'm glad it has got a cd key check so loads of people will buy the game to play online that might otherwise have just used a piracted copy. Hopefully the more succefull the sales are the more patches/maps/mods we get.
Also I find it strange I can play fine with 128k isdn but get terrible lag with 64k. Looks like I might have to get another line so I can use both phone lines all the time as I'm getting grief from the family
Hmm stray OT a bit there
Anyway keep up the good work BW and I hope they listen to you.
