Loading time hugely extended after patch

Okay.. So after some decisions, I re-installed Cross Fire with one purpose. Obtaining more data for the MODs so they might be able to better fix the problem. This is what I came up with...
Loading what, from my experience, has been deemed as the most popular maps on a Dell DIMENSION E310. Specs found here. http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/dim3100/en/sm/specs0.htm
My results are as follows
(Minutes) : (Seconds)Eagle Eyes - SnD
Started loading and hit start on a timer.
00:10.4 Enter Black Screen
01:08.0 Later Exit Black Screen, back to loading screen
00:55.7 Later, Loading bar full
00:19.4 Later I'm in-game
Approx. Total Load Time : 02:55.8Prison - TDM

I just upgraded RAM and graphics Card, it loads faster, but it still goes into a black screen. I guess my lag problem is solved, but the black screen still exist there after the ZM Patch. I wouldn't say I'm fully satisfied, it still goes into a black screen and loading time is still extended, just shortened after I upgraded my RAM to 1.4 GB + New Nvidia EN210 Silent. (Old) My fps jumped from an average of 60 to an average of 100 now too. That's a pretty good improvement for such an old motherboard from Gateway.
I mean, Z8 is not gona fix this anyways, since not everyone is having this problem. I mean, we tried telling them and everything already, and they don't do anything. You can say, I've already lost faith/hope for Z8games on this topic now.
PS, how do you guys edit your font size/colors in the forums without having a editing toolbar here? -

I can't afford to upgrade my rig at all.. I'm bleedin' poor...
@ the PS : Edit Color [ color=(putcolor) ] Text goes here. [ /color ] Size : [ size = (Input font size) ] Text goes here. [ /size ] Remove the spaces. -

Like I said in the beginning, The patch caused more memory use, upgrade your memory
and you can play again. 1.4 GB of Ram is good but double it and you will have no problems playing. After all the trolls and bad things you guys had to say. I will never come here to help again. Some of you guys just dont read are just dont get it............ -

As my first post says, anyone who tells me to get a new PC or upgrade it, can stop being an idiot troll and pay for it out of THERE pocket. As to the ".. just dont get it..." part... It's a repeating trend with Z8 Games, moron. If it's not effecting at least half the Brazilian population, then it's not effecting the income they make from the game enough for them to bother fixing it until they've fixed all the BR, or "Cash Cow" problem first.haha i feel we will reach page 150 and z8games is still not fixed this black screen bug yet
They more than likely, have yet to even start looking for the solution.aExtinction wrote: »noob pc, get a better one fool
Pay for it, troll. -

Yeah. It's like I said already. They won't address a problem unless the cash cow Brazilians are having the same problem.. Because once they start quitting, yeah the hackers are down, but so are the Z8 Games profits. And that means they'll do just about anything to please the Brazilians so they'll come back and spend more money. -

Well, the most i can get is 2GB for my desktop. And its technically 1.7GB cause of other program that needs to run. Gfx Card, meh. Motherboard, thats the thing that I'm not gona buy. Intel is gona come up with a new one in a blink of an eye. Not wasting. Just gona stick with what I have right now, despite that it still loads from 10-15 sec to 30-40 sec now. At least its an improvement from frigin 3-4 min.
