I need to save some space on my ssd   ;D
I have a fantasy about having the most slim nlite install of win xp 32bit + FH2  ( 10-12Gb : optimal FH2 client partition ) for best client performance and experience

Yes I still think win xp 32bit runs FH2 way better than win 7 :-)


directory & files + reg that can be removed from BF2 without makeing any problems when running FH2 :-)
Could turn into a batchfile to run after install to clean it up

I´m quite sure you can delete everything in mods/bf2/levels, which saves you 1.5GB. But the client and server zip files of BF2 might be needed still, if some maps are using vanilla BF2 stuff like vegetation or statics.

Do you mean the client and server zip files inside map folders or ?

No not those ones, those should be safe to delete. He's talking about the ones directly in mods/bf2/ **_client.zip and **_server.zip, those are needed by fh2.

Thanks
After trying different things out I only keep these files and folder in Battlefield 2\mods\bf2

Localization\English ( all files )
Booster_client.zip
Common_client.zip
Fonts_client.zip
Menu_client.zip
Objects_client.zip

I think the server.zip´s is only needed when running as server
