PR install/config guide

Is there a guide available handling the different parameters one can use when starting the game?

I'm talking here about the shortcut "C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe" and all possible extra parameters that can be added.

I'm very interested in the /AFFINITY parameter and how to get it to work...

I'm trying to remember where I read the list your looking for.
Till then try this:

Mutli core/processor causing errors
If you have more than one cpu or 'core' you can set the 'affinity'(force the game to run on one cpu or core only) through your shortcut by adding
AFFINITY 2
to your shortcuts 'target' string like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe" start /AFFINITY 2 +fullscreen 1

Your shortcut can do more.
I use:
start +widescreen 1 +szx 1600 +szy 1200 +restart +playerName xxxx +playerPassword xxxx

Replace XXXX with your user name and password

Adding this string bypasses the startup video, logs you in and takes you directly to the server browser.

I think that works and I haven't had any Dev say it doesn't.
Your mileage may vary.

Found the list your looking for:
Battlefield 2 Tweak Guide

Go to bottom of page 7 to "Command Line"

Good luck

Tried your line but the 'start /AFFINITY 2' is not working.

Have you test this yourself?

I think it's no longer working since the day we needed the start directly from PR.exe instead of PR.EXE as a parameter of BF2.exe?

Do you now if PR.exe is actually passing these parameters to the BF2.exe?
