Re: 1.3 not updating properly?

Absolutely sure.  I used the link featured in the most recent news post, that leads here: http://www.doubleskill.de/fs_pub/FirstS … -v1.30.exe

I even tried this one too: http://woodat.com/FirstStrike_Patch_v1.20-v1.30.exe

Re: 1.3 not updating properly?

From what I can see the mod is not installed in the correct directory.  Go to your BF2142 directoy and have a look at the directory  MODS. There should be a BF2142 directory there, which let's you play BF2142 and a First Strike directory. If it's not there, it won't work.  If you have a directory MODS in the MODS directory it won't work.

If it is there, you might have installed the Single player mini mod which sometimes interfenes with the online game.

Re: 1.3 not updating properly?

From what your saying its almost like FS isn't installed lol. Can you join the mod via the 2142 community / custom games section in 2142? If you can then check the game directory path via the properties on the FS desktop icon
Mine looks like this: Target =
"C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 2142\BF2142.exe" +modPath mods/FirstStrike +menu 1 +fullscreen 1
Start in =
"C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 2142"
That is ofcourse providing you installed both 2142 and FS to your C drive

This could be the issue, cause I did install the mini mod a while back.  I'll delete that and give it a try.

Re: 1.3 not updating properly?

Ok, so I removed the SP mod, and its still doing the same thing.

Also, when you said "BF2142 directoy and have a look at the directory  MODS. There should be a BF2142 directory there, which let's you play BF2142 and a First Strike directory," that's all there. 

Now, when I launch BF2142 and go to Mods, First Strike says its only version 1.2.  So I was like, 'waah?' and went and tried reinstalling 1.3, and it said 1.3 was already installed....   Check it out.
