Thanks Krondike and Eagle for the replies. I'm going to do what the two of you suggested and hopefully I won't muddle things up, lol

I cant play any online server with this crack

I installed the patch, game ask for CD

then I extracted the crack in BF root folder, now I can play offline but get "error connecting" any server from The All Seeign Eye

Quote:

change 'renderer.allowallrefreshrates' to 1 in your videodefault.con

I never had to do this (1.31, 1.4...) and when I open this file in notepad, the value is already set to 1

also I have a valid cd keys

anyone can help / point me to a working crack?

the renderer.allowblabla is only for win2000/win xp, but since the majority is using these OS and the win98/me users are dying out it is _very_ likely the people with the blackscreen problem have to set this setting

Workin' fine here with original BF1942 (legal key) and the 1.45 patch, no mods.

doesn't count if you have mods installed or not. i got DC installed and it works. only thing that 1.45 changed is that you cannot start normal BF with the RTR-CD anymore. This was possible with 1.4 and less!

Stomp · #54 06-09-2003, 05:15

I extracted and replaced the files in main and it worked! Thanks Sharkmeat

I'm using BF1942 v 1.45 with the IMSDOX NO-CD crack.
Joining other cracked servers works fine...
But when I create a internet game it does not show up in the server browser :-(

Anyone know what could be wrong ?

I've been playing this game since before it was released in stores (ie. the demo's offered online at the EA sites), and have been able to patch the game successfully since. This update however is causing me some problems. When applying the nocd, I can start the game no problem but when trying to play online I get a message telling me I have an invalid CD key. This isn't the case as I've bought the game and use a legitimate key.
I haven't seen a similar problem in the rest of this thread so I'm wondering if this was addressed in a thread for a previous update.

If not, I'm hope I'm not hooped and have to play with the bloody disk.

Cheers.

!!Off Topic!!

I found this is a official forum news. on www.battlefield1942.com

CD-Swapping in 1.45
We are looking at a fix for this. The issue isn't just that the Battlefield SafeDisk check has to work with Road to Rome and Secret Weapons, but we have to ensure that it works with mods as well. This has required a lengthier development time. However, we are dedicated to getting a fix in place ASAP. Please stay tuned for updates.

Virtual Drives
Is Secret Weapons not working on your machine? Do you have a virtual CD-drive installed. To fix, uninstall both Secret Weapons and the virtual drive. Reinstall Secret Weapons using your standard CD/DVD-drive. That should fix the issue. Get out there and kick SW-butt.

CDKey Misprint
Some copies of Secret Weapons had a misprinted CDKey on the actual CD-case. This results in the lower part of a letter being cut-off. The only letter this affects is the letter Q which appears like an O. If you have trouble installing Secret Weapons, check to see if you have the letter O in your CDkey. If so, try substituting Q for it. If the problem persists, please contact our Tech Support and they will be able to help sort out the issue.

Maybe that would help some people!

Edit:
Comment about CD-Swapping:
Why dose EA even think about a fix for that? Do what other companies do, screw the SafeDisc protection after sometime! You don't need to have protection at so long time. EA is the only company that don't give out games, without protection. And that is SafeDisc protection. Rockstar Game; GTA 3 patch 1.1 no SafeDisc, SI Game's; Championchip manager 4.08 no SecuROM, Codemasters; Operation Flashpoint 1.92 BETA no SafeDisc (and no Fade but there are fade error message); many companys that have problems with protection often take off the protection! Do it you to EA Games, "challange everything"....(is there slogan...oh dear...

)
