Topic: I've tried everything and still can't play this mod!

I've reinstalled BF2142 and patched it to BF2142v.1.25 with no effect. BF2142V.1.40 does axactly what BF2142v.1.25 does...CTD! Thats all I ever get. Singleplayer and Multiplayer is the same.  I see servers to play to play this mod on with nobody in them and now I know why. No one can get the game to work without a CTD. This isn't just a random problem. Fixing the CTD should be the first priority for the devs. Without a working game there is no game. I can't say whether I like or hate the game simply because I can't play the game.

Would anyone know a quick fix to the CTD problem?
Does anyone know if FSmodv.1.2 will fix this problem?
When is FSmodv.1.2 going to come out?

Any help would be appreciated.

1. Install BF2142.
2. Patch to 1.40.
3. Install FS. Hit "Ignore" when it says it needs 1.25.
4. Patch FS to 1.1. Hit "Ignore" again. [Edit: Typo fixed.]

MP will now work. SP has not yet been implemented.

And this mod works for most people.

This is the client support section SDAC, not the "Be a dick to new players" section.

Do as safe keeper said and it should work fine. I am thinking it didn't work for you because your patching order got screwed up, it messes up because the 1.4 patch somewhat conflicted with the FS patches and if you install them certain ways they can mess up the game... It's not the devs FAULT really, it was jsut bad timing.

If you want to play Singleplayer go download the SP minimod in the general discussion forum.

Theoretically 1.2 would easily fix your problem because it overwrites all the older stuff that did cause the problems, as long as you install it with 2142 1.4 patch.

Re: I've tried everything and still can't play this mod!

As far as i'm aware you only get a CTD if you click single player. The servers are not always empty, I had a few excellent games last night. Hope you get on, you really will be blown away by this mod smile

Re: I've tried everything and still can't play this mod!

Finding servers with players is all about timing. Oh, and there are community games which typically draw crowds every Friday and Saturday.

But of course, in the very near future you'll have seven new maps, new vehicles, combined arms combat and other goodies to play with, and numbers will rise. We're seeing more dedicated servers starting up already.

Re: I've tried everything and still can't play this mod!

In step 4 I am told to "Patch FS to 1.11. Hit "Ignore" again.". I've tried installing the full 1.1 mod AND I've tried installing the 1.0 then patch to 1.1 and both ways just give me a CTD in BOTH MP and SP.

Is 1.11 a different patch than 1.1?
Where can I find 1.11? It's not at fsmod.com. I only see 1.1.
