combinedarms.myfreeforum.org :: READ - INSTALL GUIDE
The Update file link no longer works however, and I wouldn't download the Base files yet, just because if we do get the installer, it would be useless anyways. However, this is how you would go about installing it if we don't in fact get an installer. File links updated as well, of course
I can't find the CA icon to change the path. Plz help

Copy your PR shortcut and put this in your target.
Code: Select all
"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +modPath mods/pr_ca +menu 1 +fullscreen 1

Crazy and his mexican sig are right.
Look over the install guide again, though, and you'll see it says so with the third pic
EDIT: Here's a pic of what your shortcuts should look like (to get this right click on them and click on "properties")

mkay I just changed the path on my normal .85 shortcut. But something really weird happend. The video background was the same as VBf2 and no servers would show up. I tried to load desert rats to play locally but my game crashed
I'm the reason they make installers

vBF2 vid is normal, as otherwise you'd have to dl a few megabytes of unnecessary files. If you've only changed your pr 0.85 shortcut, then that's fine, just remember to revert it if you want to play pr.
You'll only see CA servers in the servers list, and IIRC Robbi's server should be up, have you tried updating the page?
Not sure why you're CTDing, how far did you get to when you first tried loading it up? Try running in windowed mode and seeing if it gives you an error code.
(You can run in windowed mode by going into you shortcut properties again, and changing
"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +modPath mods/pr_ca +menu 1 +fullscreen 1
to
"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +modPath mods/pr_ca +menu 1 +fullscreen 0

Do people actually ***** about downloading small updates? Or is it part of your paranoia?
I personally have been a PR tester, and to me, small updates like these beat the hell out of downloading 2gb for every test build every week.
Anyways, is server up?

Can you post a screenshot of inside your pr_ca folder? I think I know what the problem is.
Make sure you have both the Base and Update files.
