Patch 7 serious problem

[Lusche]

DISREGARD earlier version



After patch 7, game does maximise again after having alt-tabbed out, but takes now about 50 seconds instead of 10, all while seeing a white screen only

yes it does seem to be taking a much longer time, for me and everyone I spoke to in the game as well, to load the textures now with the new patch...... its not just alt-tabbing in and out, but even moving from one base to another you have to wait for all the textures to load again.... even returning to a base you were just at

when i log in, i can sit in tower and it takes very long time, like 20+ mins
and still all the textures arent loaded. (cnt=#)

vid mem shows 128 mg which i have, and 0.4m used. I also
still have the panning view stutters.

Seem to have lost 15-20fps as well...

I was getting very poor frame rates right after I installed the latest patch.  I ran a disk defrag and performance was right back where it was if not better.  May help may not, but it at least won't hurt and could solve some issues, I do defrag pretty regularly so I was surprised that it made as much of a difference as it did.

Just for a reference my game alt-tabs and then returns within about 1-3 seconds everytime even in the MA, which is obvously good. I don't have a brand new PC, graphics card is 312mb and 2gb ram.
