Project Reality 0.87 Level Installer not working?

Post by Daxent »

It seems as if the Project Reality level installer isn't working right. I installed it into my Steam directory like I installed my copy of BF2. Since this is my first install of Project Reality, I figured I was doing something wrong but I couldn't put my finger on what.

So, anyways, the level installer just disappears after I select "No" on the go to download page considering I already have PR core. After it disappears nothing happens, I open UTorrent and it's still there, so I try to install it yet again. Another time it does nothing.

I would really like to play this mod, as it seems as awesome as it gets. Could any of you help me?

Steam directory?
Well the PR core installer needs to point to the main BF2 folder, the same gos for the 'levels' installer. The installers will put all the files in the right folders within BF2.
FYI: The default location is C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2.
Why did you install BF2 to your Steam folder?

I suggest simply making a Battlefield 2 folder in Program Files\EA GAMES. Then, start regedit, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Battlefield 2, and edit InstallDir to C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2. Now install the Core and Levels. After that is done, go to Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods and move the pr folder to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Battlefield 2\mods or wherever you installed Battlefield 2 to.

Yes, I know that the default location is to there, but the Steam folder is more used then any of my other folders, and I install most of my games to that folder.

However, I will do what Snares suggested. I'll let you know if I have any progress.
