coop server

[sebi7798]

hi
do i need a license for a private coop server??
on a pr client installed windows pc it works to start a coop server
but the coop server should run on a linux server

All "online" servers are license required servers.

Besides that the Serverfiles are different compared to the Client Files, so highly recommend you to apply for a license.

Although if you wish to run a private PR server you could simply port forward your router and give the IP/Port to who ever you want joining your server, another option is Hamachi, gameranger etc, etc..

Using Hamachi or Evolve clients is the easiest way to do this, not just for PR but for hosting a server for most older games.

OK, so here is a French language video tutorial on how to set up a Hamachi server for Battlefield 2.

So instead of creating a cooperative through the vanilla BF2 mainscreen, you want to do this:
You will want to start PRlauncher->Login with online account-> Play->
on main PR screen->Cooperative->Create Local
