[0860] +joinServer parameter not working with pr.exe

[TeRR0R]

When i try to use my custom PR shortcut parameter set with pr.exe i get the error message, that i should run "pr.exe" instead of bf2.exe.


This is what i've used until 0.85 (except pr.exe):

Code: Select all

"H:\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe" [b]+restart +playerName .TeRR0R.[GER] +playerPassword xxxxxxxxx +szx 1680 +szy 1050 +joinServer 74.208.145.77 +port 16623[/b]

this shortcut works when i leave out the +joinServer / +port parameter!



pr.log says:

Code: Select all

H:\Battlefield 2
PR command line args sent to BF2: +modPath mods/pr +menu 1  +restart +playerName .TeRR0R.[GER] +playerPassword xxxxxxx +szx 1680 +szy 1050 +joinServer 74.208.145.77 +port 16623

Any ideas how i can get this +joinServer parameter working? or is it a bug?

I dunno, but I have the same problem since 0.86

It's a known bug and has been fixed for the next version.

Okey day - thanks for replying.

is it possible to give us a corrected pr.exe before the next release?

Its nothing to do with the PR exe , as you can see from the logs it passes the parameters on to BF2 exactly as written. The error is occurring later on inside BF2.

Secondly a new client would mean you failed md5 checks on every server and you could never play a game
