Like many ppl, the Reload text appears on my screen even if I don't need to and it's very annoying. I figured out a fix though, but this fix will also disable the interaction que that tells you to press E to enter vehicles, man mounted weapons and set/disarm charges(a good thing IMO since I don't need the que).

Go to: My Documents>BFBC2>GameSettings

Look for the line that reads: ToolTips=1

Change 1 to 0 and voila no more reload message.

Bump.
This could help some people... I hope.

spanx m8. you just put the icing on my new-patch cake

Ok tried it.

Didn't seem to work.

As soon as I spawned into the match. There it was... As usual...

Did you reopen the file after to make sure the change was saved properly? If so, I'm sorry it didn't work for you.

Make sure you have the hint system disabled in the main menu as well. If you have it enabled in the main menu the config will rewrite itself after you set tool tips to 0. Dice re-introduced a bug where the main menu options wouldn't always right/read from the config correctly(they forced the exec to reload the config after every map load to solve it but it caused problems for some so they switched it back.)

That's probably it since I do have hints disabled as well.

Yep, I have had the hint and tool tips disabled since the second day I played this game.

I'm sorry it doesn't work either... I was really hoping we at least had a temporary fix for one of the issues the patch has delivered.

I wonder why it worked for me then? I'll try to think of other common threads that may explain why this fixed it for me and update if anything comes to me.

I was experimenting last night with some settings, one of them being the Hint System.

If I had the Hint System turned off, I had the Reload stuck on the screen with most (but not all) of the guns I used. I turned the Hint System back on, shot a few rounds, reloaded, and then the Reload indicator on-screen went away until I was actually low on ammo.

Something else to try out.

Interesting...

I'll have to give it a shot...

I'm having a really hard time playing though with this damned broken chat-box! Grrr...

Won't this remove the tooltip when you try to arm or disarm an obj? With all those weapons on the ground and not being able to see the tooltip i can imagine the misery while you're getting shelled to oblivion.

Just a thought.

Just because you can't see the que doesn't mean you can't still perform the interaction. I've had no problems with any interactions so far.
