ok....hi to all folks on this forum....

i've got a serious problem....either of the .exe fixes for Battlefield 1942 v1.4 isn't working for me....infact it works fine, as long as u want to play single player....if i create a LAN server to play with my friends at home, i keep getting the "data differs from server" message....so i downloaded the serverfix, but with no success.....

(((

I just posted a thread on this identical issue the other day and got no response other than someone telling me to put the question on an existing thread.

I told them I started a new thread like you, because the other existing threads were old, long, and not to this point. I had a specific issue that I needed help with and did not want to wade through a bunch of obsolete B1942 threads.

I looks now that my thread has been DELETED, as it does not show on this board anymore (BF1942 1.4 NoCD Stops Lan Hosting) and it does not come up with my other threads when I do a search.

It was there yesterday and now I can find no trace of it, I hate to think that it was deleted as that does not say much for this forum.

I hope that someone replies to your thread as I have the exact same problem and have tried four different 1.4 NoCD cracks and they all fail when trying to Host a Lan server regardless of what the other response replied.

Look, it's very simple. There's only ONE guy that decides whether your threads are good ones or a pure waste of space. Hint : it ain't me. Battlefield1942 is one of those games that sometimes generate TEN different threads on the same DAY, all of which could have been reduced to two at the most. So don't be surprised if this one gets deleted too. I just spent 5 seconds of my valuable time using the SEARCH BUTTON, which gave me THIS. Any questions ? Oh, and if you think the service here is lacking for your refined tastes, here's another board you could try. Goodbyeeeeeeee !

there was an updated BF 1942 v1.4 singleplayer/multiplayer released by overkill the other day....im not sure if gamecopyworld.com has it........try *************.com or megagames.com they have it.....

tnx i'll try it and tell ya...

hmm...doesn't work either...

((

s**t...is this only happening to me or what??

i'm really getting pissed...hmm do i have to use the fixed .exe anyway? i've got the cd's so i'll just use a keygen when installing and play with the cd in the drive.... how's that??

its a dam shame about this data differs from server crap :| i wouldnt have patched to 1.4 if i knew about all this, the problem is you have to patch to 1.4 to use all the new mods, DC.38 and EOD12% etc

Is noone trying to fix the problem? i know the mods are gettin bored of this but its quite an annoying problem.

skuko · #9 27-06-2003, 15:05

oh yea....i have a solution...f**k those noCD fixes....i've just imaged the battlefield CD required to play, patched to 1.4 and runnig everything smoothly from a virtual CDrom....how 'bout that? take some hard drive space though...you can even play it directly from the CD drive...JUST FORGET ABOUT THE NO CD FIX!!!

#10 27-06-2003, 18:57

Yes I got the same problem. I applied the BF 1.4 Patch and have tried EVERY 1.4 No CD Crack and NONE of them work. I double click on the BF1942.exe and it goes to a black screen and then cuts back to the desktop. Hmm I think I will just burn BF1942 to a CD and play it from that for now until someone makes a 1.4 Crack that WORKS. Hey Skuko how did you make a virtual CDrom. How do you make an image of the CD? Is there 2 CDs which on do I make an image of?

Thanks Eddie

#12 28-06-2003, 01:46

I downloaded it and it isnt working. It does the same thing. Whats that BForig.exe for. Can you give me the direct to the download. I got BF1942 and Road to Rome installed.

viperspit01 · #13 28-06-2003, 01:52

- BATTLEFIELD 1942 v1.4 SP/MP ENG PROPER WORKING!! NO-CD FILES -Thanks VeRyStOnEd-

Located here: http://******************.com/dl/game...ixedexeeng.htm

If it doesnt work, then i dont know what will!

Try uninstalling the game, then reinstalling it, apply the *Official* 1.4 patch update from EA, then use the SP/MP no-cd....

let us all know if it works for you.....

#14 28-06-2003, 02:24

OK thanks. Yea Ill try that and tell you the result. Hope it works

Is there 2 CDs which on do I make an image of?

the problem u got, is with the refresh rates....just go into : your battlefield install dir\mods\bf1942\settings\ then open videodefault.con with notepad and change the value of allowallrefreshrates from 0 to 1....that will fix the game so it runs....

the second thing thing is....download for example Alcohol 120% and make an image of the first BF1942 CD....alcohol is also a virtual CDrom creator and manager....just mount the image of the first CD into th evirtual CDrom a you got it running...

P.S. thanx viperspit....that last noCD fix workx!!!

at least for me
