im a bit concerned about this "UPDATE"

Post by Yett71 »

Im not too sure if you developers know of the PR start up error and glitch where nothing happens and there is a weird error.

But it took me 5 hours to fix.. i had to :
1) Install BF2 and any expansion packs.
2) Install BF2 1.41 patch. (1.41 - Direct link, Extremely Fast, Gaming.Fi)
3) Install BF2 1.5 patch. (1.50 - Direct link, Extremely Fast, Gaming.Fi)
4) Install BF2 1.5 AltTab Fix (1.50 AltTab Fix - Direct link, Extremely Fast, Gaming.Fi)
5) Install PR in the right order (1of3, 2of3 and 3of3)
6) Restart PC.
7) Open BF2 in WinXP SP3 mode (without did blackscreens for me, but it doesn't mean that you get blackscreens without compatibility mode) and run as an admin and retrieve your account. Set up your video settings and close BF2.
8) Open PR and run as an admin (you may use WinXP SP3 mode, but it works without).

Then i had to add some weird -fullscreen 0 and -menu 0 and some other stuff ... and it worked.

But my friends have had the start up error and cant fix it.

Im worried that the new update will make my Project Reality not work again...

Any word from developers? :S :S :S

It will work if it is working now, it is only new content that is being added.

Tell your friends to make a thread in the tech support forums and they will get help :)

Thread moved to PR:BF2 Support. This appears to be an individual problem although you have followed the correct installation process (which should be lenghty nowadays if you also have to install BF2...).

You don't have to use XP compatability, it works without but as with most games you should run as admin.

The new update should not cause any problems.
