Project Reality Forums

This patch includes some more fixes for the recent v1.5 release as well some other balances and tweaks. We also have some exciting news in the mapping department! Sahel has left the BETA program and is now a fully completed level. We also introduce with v1.5.3 the reworked Iron Ridge featuring the Polish Forces. This map didn't make the v1.5 release but is now ready to be played. Further have we implemented the amazing HD fonts by community modder TBob. Read all the details below.

We would also like to mention that we are aware of a decrease in performance for many users. We don't know at this time the exact reason(s) for this but we are investigating it further. If you want to help with this and other testing, join the testing team!


v1.5.3.0 is available now for servers and clients!

Thanks for updating on the morrow mats <3 Much love from PRTA

Thanks for the Sahel changes. It's one of my favorite maps for infantry combat, especially the AAS layer, and the new lightmapping looks good, judging by the screenshots. Thanks for continuing to work on the game

Thanks!

good work mats graphics are little bit improved keep it up.

Thanks for the fixes!

Sorry but after I updated the game today my game starts and closes after the intro video - so before I come into the menu... any ideas how to fix this or am I the only one with this problem?

I got no errormessage - after the intro and the "Project Reality" - writing I can hear the first sounds from the menu-music and it loads for few moments but than the game just quits and the usual window opens if you quit the game (quit project reality - clean ressources...) - but I did not! Not even pressed any button etc. ...

Thankyou for working on this great mod.

NO ^ Check PR:BF2 Support. Works OK for offline.
The fonts looks awesome, PR HD version.Thank you.

Why do you constantly ask for testers if you cherry pick and reject applicants anyway based on your personal biases or opinions of them? That's the behaviour of someone who has an abundance of willing participants, not someone who is in need of testers.

Sorry for the salt but i think that conduct is unnecessary, no matter what you think of someone.

We released a small patch v1.5.3.1 for those crashing on some older operating systems

I think server admins still haven't updated their servers yet

HD font update, check. Sahel out of beta, check. Very much appreciated.

After update I can't change ALT kit variants. After push "ALT" button would still respawn with "STD"

Chuma cha chuma kinaonekana kama ramani nzuri ya Rengar dhidi ya Kha 'Zix ramani. Ninaita juu ya Riven.

Translation: The long awaited Shahadah INS layer is finally here! Yus!

Having same problem here... Windows 10, frozen black screen with icon rotating and no way out of the game beside forcing restart.. Tried 2 times already.

I also have this problem, it happens exactly the same, after the game intro, the game gets black screen and closes, and is already updated in 1.5.3.1, the problem persists. (My system is Windows 7 SP1)

(I already reinstalled the game, and nothing)

YoU ArE ThE BeST...Check i think Fallujah...i stucked near hospital on textures ...

Finally got on the game and wow the screenshot of the font change doesn't do it justice. hard to believe such a subtle change could have a profound impact on the game's appearance.
