dont need that all...

always run with RTR enabled. then you are also able to join 'normal' BF servers without the CTD.

Or use All Seeing Eye to start or join games.

All Seeing Eye?

I cannot join normal BF servers if I run RTR enabled.
The problem with the crack is that it won't let you switch from one mod to another, the game crashes. THATS EXACTLY what happens when you run RTR and try to join an original BF server.

i have RTR
i use a no-cd crack
i also have the crash-problem when switching mods or joining a different server the 2nd time

BUT

i always start BF with RTR enabled and i *can* join 'normal' BF servers from RTR without problems!

What crack are you using?
BTW, I know talking of CD-KEYs is not a good idea here, but this is sort of different...
I am not asking for one, I got one, but I did hear that the 70Kb crack allows you to join servers with an invalid CD-KEY. I could never get that crack to work though...
I also wonder how in the world they could bypass that...

I'm using the crackfile named 'elkanbf1.4.rar'.

that link is on this forum somewhere.


and for that serial: i dont know the authencation-mechanism. but I think its server-based (server checks your key and let you play) therefore that 70kb-crack may only crack the server to leave out the key authentication and let all people play.

The 71k crack at GCW working fine for me. Everyone can join my server. But i dont show up at EA serverlist or BFStats.
I mapped port: 14567, 22000, 23000-23009, 27900 and 28900 in the router. It worked before but not any longer. :(

Does anyone else have same problem?

How did you get the 71K crack to work?
When I do as it follows, eventually a DOS window appears and it says THIS PROCESS FAILED, PRESS ANY BUTTON TO CONTINUE.
I did this on a cleanly installed BF1942, RTR, and 1.4 Patch!
What am I doing wrong?

Strange. That was no problem for me. I did as you say a clean install and just unzipped it in gamedir. Does you unzipp i wrong dir maybe?

No, same DIR as the game...:rolleyes:

Sorry for create a new Thread...instead of reply on this....any way.....look at http://www.fileforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=52195

There you can find the Elkan crack (Rebuilded by me/krondike)

Read my reply!
Can I switch between mods without a crash with this crack?

Nope, this crack did not fix the mods crash

Do you know why?
becuase Fairlight did the mod.dll file... and doese only contains the only neacysairy to start the game....
A tip is to look at Road To rome shortcut... then you know the parameters to run the mod ;)

Does the patch make my server to show up at EA serverlist and at BFstats?
