Hey.

Did you install everything in the correct order?

BF2 - patch 1.41 - PR core - PR levels?

Battlefield 2 Battlefield 2 v1.41 Patch

Try installing it when you get it, otherwise reinstall everything in the correct order.

No problem. You mean you can't spawn with them? That's because they're limited, you have to be a squadleader to use them. The medic- and automatic rifleman kit are limited to 1 of each per squad.

Nope. Before i spawn, when i go to the kit list its missing the officer kit and i think something else. Gameplay is a little jumpy what would you recommend for it to run smoother?

Hmm. Can you show a screenshot of it? Sounds weird. Turn down your video settings until it feels comfortable.

No, only if you had the older 0.85 version installed, then you'd only need the patch.
