Installer says Bf2 1.5 not installed even if it is.

I choose install as admin on win7 on the bf2 1.0, but then it says

Installer says Bf2 1.5 not installed even if it is.

I played PR.98 at Tactical gamer " Final chance " this very night so I know for sure it very much works.

Is the PR 1.0 installer corrupt ? it seems very much like it.

Love to get some quick answer or help since I?m going to play it with my friend on sunday.
Thanks for an awesome mod so far ( with exception of the non working installer)

( Tried renaming my Bf2 documents folder and retrieve my
account, also renamed my PR ( 9.8 folder) to see if that helps.
The PR installer is messed up and fails to recognize my installation of BF2 1.5 )

Please dont write Re-install BF2 and try again cause it?s not the bf2 install that is the problem, its a fresh installation.

There most be something wrong with the installer, that the PR devs have missed. I posted this one and another post about the problem + on the facebook page but haven?t gotten any answers yet.

I?ts extremely irritating when you think at last the PR team has made a streamlined awesome installer with a launcher outside of the game...then it doesnt work to install...its just ARAGGG.

I got an answer from a friendly Betatester:

download the appropriate registry entry from here: PR:BF2 Support - Project Reality Forums
That will get your registry to say you have BF2 v1.5 installed.

Do that!


I allready uninstalled BF2, cleaned registry with CCleaner and rebooted + reinstalled game AND BF2 PR 1.0 ...then it worked..but to skip that part....do this

a Betatester posted me this answer...so please try it out.. I solved my problem in a more difficult way...but use this:

No not at all, and if it were to I'd simply reinstall BF2 > 1.41 > 1.5 > PR.
