Project Reality Forums

Hi in what order do i download the PR files? Is it PR mod core/PR level pack/PR Patch? I am not sure any help would be appreciated thanks everyone.

im preety sure the order is:

BF2
BF2 expansions (if any)
1.5 patch
PR core
PR levels


should be that simple but i dont know if something else was added

That should work but if your alt-tab closes the game instead of tabbing in and out, like it should, you need to then download the 'alt-tab hotfix' last.

dont you need 1.41 before 1.5 ?

1. Install BF2 CD
2. Download & Install BF2 1.41 Patch
3. Download & Install BF2 1.5 Patch
4. Download & Install PR 0.87 Core
5. Download & Install PR 0.87 Levels.

Thats it, Have fun!

Welcome to the forums

All that, and number 6 is the Alt-Tab fix which is TV2 - Battle.no Portal - av spillere, for spillere

and the instructions are:
* Download the attached file
* Extract it into your Battlefield 2 install directory (you must have v1.50 installed already)
* When prompted accept that you want to over write the existing file
* In My Documents go to Battlefield 2\mods\bf2 and delete the cache directory
* Run BF2 as normal

I believe that 1.5 now includes the minimize fix.

The minimizing problem came whit 1.5, you were able to alt+tab normally in 1.41 but after the update you need the fix to be able to alt+tab

Don't the newer VBF2 discs have 1.41 on it? I'm sure mine did.

Ye I believe some do have 1.41 on already, depending when you bought BF2 though.

Ok got it thanks everyone

step 7: Download, install, and use; mumble

do we need to install punkbuster ?

Fighter the reason I asked is that the download section says you need 1.5+.86 first in the patch download section (at the top of page)
Which brings me to another Q's in that when do you client patch with .87? After core and levels?

Thanks again, West

Also this is in the PR manual PDF...I'm confused can you see my delema?

Quote:
1) Battlefield 2
2) Add-On: Special Forces (if available)
3) Booster Pack: Euro Force (if available)
4) Booster Pack: Armored Fury (if available)
5) BF2 Patch to 1.41
6) BF2 Patch to version 1.5
7) Project Reality 0.86 core installer
Project Reality 0.86 levels installer
9) Project Reality 0.87 patch

Please advize, West

OK! it worked as described above... BF2 CD's+1.41BFpatch+1.5BFpatch+.87PRcore+.87PRlevels+.87PRpatch then the Alt&Tab fix.

Works great, thanks again, and maybe the PR manual should be updated regarding the installation directions to exclude .86 mod as a prerequisite to .87 installation.
Thanks, West
