LAN "modified content" bug

Fireflybuzzbuzz · Post by **Fireflybuzzbuzz** » 2007-10-24 11:32

for some reason every time ma and a freind try to connect over the LAN we have set up, it loads and verifies, but then kicks as soon as you enter the game saying something about having modified content. This has only started happening since the latest patch, 6.1 i do belive. any help would be appreciated

you need a license to run a non-passworded server.
Set a password and it should work.

Got to your bf2/mods/pr folder and move the four .md5 files to the readme folder. Now it will work.

would this still allow you to play online?

yes, since the md5s are a little fubar right now.

so only the person hosting the lan game has to change these files?

yes (pretty sure).

Cool, I am having this problem as well. I will try it tonight and see if it works.

Thanks for the help. It worked. I removed the files specified and the local Lan Game workes fine. Only needs to be done on the server, as mentioned above.
