Hello all,

I have spent the last 3 hours trying to get Project Reality to work on my new steam version of battlefield and i cant get it to work, i am a project reality veteran so i know how to properly install but when it comes to steam im stuck and none of the fixes i have found on these forums or any of the FH2 forums seem to help

i would appreciate some assistance on this or a big sign that says

IT WONT WORK :D

Double check BF2 is installed correctly, that you did indeed install PR correctly(correct folder and all that jazz), ensure that you've run BF2 at least once to finish its installation (steam finishes an installation on the first run, DirectX and all that junk I believe), then ensure that your steam overlay is OFF. If it is on, punkbuster will kick you over and over. That's the process I always have to go through whenever I reinstall.
