0.87 installation problem

[T-moad]

Hello. my first post on this forum.

I have a problem with the insallation of pr v0.87

I played 0.86 but I formated my computer about one day before the new patch came out.

now, when I was going to install 0.87 I installed core and levels, but when I was going to install patch I got an error message.

I read in 0.87 installation guide, but I didn't quite understad what to do.

the message I got said that I had to install 0.86, but now I can't find 0.86 anywhere..

I would be happy if you could give me some help.

here is a link to a screenshot of the error message: http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/5300/prfeil.png

hmmm do you have netframework 3.5 ??

try to install pr like this BF2 + 1.41 + PR 0.86 core + 0.86 levels + 1.5 + patch 0.87

it worked like a charm for me

[AncientMan]

Err, you only need to install v0.87 Core + Levels. The patch is only if you have v0.86 already installed, which from what you said, you no longer had.

Or are you saying you had installed v0.86 Core + Levels, then tried to install the v0.87 Patch?

In general:
Patch if you have the previous version installed
Core + Levels if you do not have the previous version installed.

mmm right sorry... its just how I installed it... and it worked just fine..

and T-moad download the patch 0.87 thats why im saying that...

he doesn't have 0.87 core and 0.87 levels.. it'll be borin to download all core and levels again.. instead of a 14mb patch

[T-moad]

I have not installed 0.86, just 0.87 core and levels, I also have bf2 1.41 and 1.5

but, when I try to enter pr it doesn't work.. maybe I'll try to re install everything

[Mad-Mike]

well you need to install 0.87 patch aswell mate, then it will work.

to make pr work you need

1. BF2 1.41 + 1.5 Patch Installed.
2. PR 0.87 Core
3. PR 0.87 Levels
4. PR 0.87 Patch
and then update Punkbuster etc..

ok ty for the answers, but now I am completly stuck...

I removed everything and installed it once more in this order

bf2, 1.41. 1.5 0.87 core, 0.87 levels. 0.87 patch (which acually worked now) and I am pretty sure I have netframework 3.5..

but now when I click the pr icon it doesent work "pr.exe has stopped working" I have also tried to run as admin"

I feel helpless lol
