Sometimes it takes a century before someone joins the game your in.
Then all you see is "Gameplay Pending" and usually people leave after
<30 seconds then. If it was possible to start running around on the map i think alot less people would leave then.
Just strip the guys weapons so he cant make any points. When someone else joins the game then make him respawn in his base and reset his cash he earned.

That's a network issue and there's jack anyone can do about it. I think the same would have to apply to joining already populated game servers, which obviously wouldn't work.

zunnie Great Idea! This would be a really a good thing if you could change this. It is really boring standing there waiting, staring at the PT. You leave and two seconds later someone else joins...aaaaahhhh!

You know, I hate you. I had the same idea, but I never thought to vocalize it. Oh well, as long as it can be applied then I'm happy. Smile

Its possible to run around in gameplay pending mode, but things like doors to not work unless you spawn near them.

RenGuard allready allows the "speedload maps". You just have to install them. Unfortunately Im at work right now and dont have them or the URL handy. Try using the search function, or maybe some helpful person will reply Smile

They didn't change a thing on my computer. Renegade still takes ~20 seconds to load.

Why not put them in anyway with CP1? It would mean that less people will take ages to load because lots more people will have them.

if the host has the quickload maps, that just means the host loads quicker!

Speeded Westwood Maps

These files were edited by Blazer and provided for your
use by http://www.n00bstories.com. In these files, he
simply opened the .mix files and removed some un-
needed file references. This produces a DRASTIC
improvement on load times, even on fast systems.

Also, big thanks go to Dante for discovering this. He
deserves most of the credit. Smile



Im wondering btw just WHAT exactly did you change in the
maps then that make it load so much faster?

They don't make much of a difference at all.
