https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f27-pr ... guide.html Make sure you follow that and install PB then download pbsetup and add game - add your games then update it. Make sure you run all those as admin.

Ive been playing PR since the cows came home, I know how to install it. BF3 is a curse that should be killed with fire, everyone thought it would be shit, even me but I bought it anyways. Guess what, it is shit. My question is.... does BF3 have some kind of package that makes BF2 obsolete? ORIGIN is the most ridiculous POS I've ever seen. I really don't wanna reinstall again.

Hmm I really dont know, I didnt get BF3, but I had beta with origin and all that ****...no problems with it and bf2...

Try installing bf2 and pr first, make sure it works, and then install bf3?

What happens is the PR loading screen comes up then it immediately says "not responding".

start up BF2 before starting up PR for the 1st time, if you have crashing problems while loading or loading getting stuck, delete the cache folder, and remember to always run as admin and never run in compatibility mode
There is only one unforgivable lie That is the lie that says, This is the end, you are the conqueror, you have achieved it and now all that remains is to build walls higher and shelter behind them. Now, the lie says, the world is safe.? The Great Khan.

40k is deep like that.

Yes you have to run BF2 at least one time before trying to play PR.
