Hi all,
I was - note the past tense - plagued by very slow loading of Renegade and Renegade maps. It happened around the time that I D/L Windows XP Service Patch 2. I put in another stick of RAM a few days ago to raise my RAM from 512 megs to 1 gig and my map and game load times have dropped from 1 minute or more each to around 10 seconds each.
I post this so perhaps others with this problem will perhaps be able to see that there may be a solution. I also saw that there was an amendment to the Renguard Core patch 1 recently which may also have helped.
I run an AMD 3200+, in an ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe with 2x256meg sticks of Corsair TWINX 3200LLPT RAM Plus a single 512 meg stick of Corsair RAM also 3200LLPT all with a latency of 2-3-2-6. Vid card currently a 128 meg PNY 5600Ultra soon to be a 128meg XFX 6600GT (AGP).
Hope this helps.
