Why does this game take me 2 plus minutes to load maps? Is anyone else getting ridiculously long load times or know how to fix it?

If you check the front page, you'll find that Steam should automatically have updated with the new file system and unpacked RO for you. If not, just try logging out of Steam and back in.
Usual question: what sort of system specs??

I have good enough system specs to play counter strike with 1 third load times. Ill try to exit out of steam.

2 mins isn't that bad I used to load maps in 5 mins. But thanks to the new file system I load in 30 secs. Try using the Red Orchestra tweak guide, that helped me out a lot.

"Exit out of Steam" is different than "Log out of Steam". Logging out then back in to my Steam account fixed an issue I had after the patch.

I've been having the same problem since I started playing the RO mod. The problem for me it seems is the lack of memory (I only have 512 MB). If you have a gig for RAM or more then that's not the problem.

no no no, FAR less then that, remember its a old quake 1 engine based game.
the levers are what 1 or 2 MB's total (including everything) where RO:O's are 20-30 MB EXCLUDING textures.

I do, once a week even. My loading times aren't that long, a little over a minute at most perhaps, so i'm not really complaining. Still, it's quite odd that the new file system increased my loading times when they were supposed to lower them.

Actually, the original CS is based on the old Half-Life engine which came out in about 1997. The original Quake 1 came out in 1996, I believe.
The best thing you can do to load maps faster is to add more RAM. Go to a gig or 1.5. I've got a gig and I load in anywhere from 15 seconds to a minute. I'm often one of the first guys in the server (which means I actually get to use the sniper rifle once in a while)

10 mb or mbs if your running 10mbs thats slow most network cards handle 10/100 mbs with newest one supprting 1000mbs- so the fix might be as simple as getting a cat5e cable and plugin it in but Network data tramission speeds usaully have more of an affect on in game play not loading times. have you tried optimizing your files and even a re-install might help- delete the local content and start from a clen file system-Ronin said:I also concur, since new update my load times have doubled

The Half life engine (Gold Source is what valve calls it) is a modification of the quake engine. It is what the return to castle wolfenstein engine is to the quake 3 engine.

Highly modified quake engine. You can't really say that HL uses the same engine as the original Quake.
