System Requirements
The location of the various engine files are located in C:\...\Documents\BFBC2, but easiest way is to use available third-party configurators.
Issues and Fixes
Changing Fov
To change fov locate BFBC2 folder in documents
C:\...\Documents\BFBC2
Find the settings file, then locate where it says fov, input what you want your fov to be and then save it. 85 is a good amount.
Unable to update
- Start the game and log-in to your account
- Hit ctrl+alt+del to bring up task mgr
- Run the Updater program
- When you receive the error "can't replace bfbc2.exe because it's in use. Close the file and try again".
- There will be 2 buttons: retry and cancel.
- Go to Task Mgr and end the BFBC2.exe process
- Click on retry
- Success?
FPS Boosts
If you need a few tweaks to boost your framerate, try changing these vars in your "settings.ini" file:
RenderAheadLimit=0 HSAO=false Overgrowth="medium" Undergrowth=”medium” Water=”medium” MSAA=”2" Shadows=”medium” Textures=”medium” Aniso=2
Force DirectX Level
Go to the "settings.ini" file and change:
DxVersion=#
from auto (default) to 9 if you want to force DX9, to 10 to force DX10, and to 11 to force DX11
Hit Registration and Lag
There is no 100% fix for hitreg atm, since that's servers/engine fault.
Possible LAG Compensation:
SettingsManager.floatSet GSDefaultLatencyCompensation 0.100000 SettingsManager.U32Set GSInterpolationTime 100
Add these cvars to you ini files found in you BFBC2 folder in your my documents folder. You want the numbers to represent you average ping (i.e. 120ms would make the cvars 0.120 and 120). Again I will stress that there is still a chance that they will do nothing...try 'em out if you care.
