Oh, I have that problem, too.

But it's really more like 30 seconds, not 2 minutes, and it doesn't exactly kill the gameplay.


"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)

"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)

yup, it freezes at the motd because you have too many custom files i think (skins, maps, mods, etc.)

it's not skins or maps.

It's only .pkg files

the more you have the longer AGL takes to load.

Remove all .pkg's into another folder and your problem is solved.

I had this problem when i installed a Mod i think, the file was over 200MB, it tries to load it, and it can't handle it, hence an error. Try looking through your /Data/ folder, see whats there..

I have no .pkg files installed and I still get a 30 second delay, I've gotten a connect delay ever since the first WOL crash after WW was shut down.

As many will tell you, renegade can become unstable for whatever reason problems like if you had not had them before can usually be remedied wuth a fresh install.

And yes I have had that problem in the past
