A lot of people are getting errors with 1.4 ---> 1.45 update patch, it's recommended to install the full 1.0 ---> 1.45.

[PreservedSwine]

??

What kind of errors?

[Falcon-K]

sweed d/ling it now! Do you know what it does to desert combat?

[BIB]

i already have the 1.4 patch installed. Can i just get the full1.45 install or do i need to get the incremental?

Patch 1.45 has introduced 3 new AIR controls, located under CONTROLS in the OPTIONS menu, on the 2nd page of the AIR tab. If you have applied the 1.45 patch to an existing, previously played install of Battlefield 1942, you will need to define keys for these controls in order for them to work while playing.

For reference, if you apply the 1.45 patch to an installation of Battlefield 1942 that has not been previously played, the keys are setup by default as follows :

AIR Control - Default Key
# GO TO POSITION 4 -- Key 4
# GO TO POSITION 5 -- Key 5
# GO TO POSITION 6 -- Key 6

NETWORK/SERVER FIXES

# game.listPlayers will now display client IP addresses when run from the server console

CLIENT FIXES

# Support for Battlefield 1942: Secret Weapons of WWII expansion pack
# Land vehicles will not respawn if player is too close to spawnpoint.
# Def Gun now has shell icon instead of rocket.
# Fixed issue with using the mouse wheel as a control.
# AI skill no longer resets to EASY when browsing menus.
# Dropped kits stay on static objects such as bridges, houses, etc.
# Fixed issue with disappearing buttons after activating a custom game.
# Tooltips added for Def Gun, stationary

# Kits can no longer be picked up from a distance.
# Fixed force from explosions on vehicles which were sometimes wrong, and caused vehicles to roll over.
# AI players don't count when voting in COOP.
# Possible to select position 4, 5 and 6 in aircrafts.
# Console background does not disappear after switching to main menu.
# Changing camera view while shooting or leaving water works.
# CO-OP briefing text now displays the specific conquest type for each map (Assault, Head-On or Hybrid)
# Names with line-feeds are now valid.

# Fixed crash when changing camera view under certain conditions.

Land vehicles will not respawn if player is too close to spawnpoint.

for some reason i don't see a bunch of people standing around camping for tanks... if i had it my way i'd take the f'ing planes straight outta the game, and it'd be lots of action on the ground, not a bunch of idiots waiting for planes. that is one dumb fix! anyone looking to buy bf1942? :rolleyes: j./k

I'm thinking its more like the vehicle wont spawn when you are in the middle of the spawn point, so that you don't get stuck in the tank. or crushed by it...

[Turd Furguson]

Dam these are big patches......

[Lusankya]

Damn that spawnpoint block sucks.. no more winning the wait for a vehicle to spawn.

Actually I can see it now.. twits standing on the spawn points so they wont spawn.
If friendly fire is off.. you are screwed

anyone having problems installing the patch? I tried and it looks like it is only looking for my bf1942 install on my c drive but I have mine on my D: drive so it says I have an erroneous install of bf1942 and to reinstall the whole game. Now There isnt anyway I am going to install the whole thing on my C drive (its reserved for my OS) with all the mods + patches + Road to Rome + setting up my keyboard for infantry and vehicles + setting up my flight stick and I'm looking at an afternoon afair. What a bunch of B.S. I would think they would know enough to think that some people dont have it installed on their C: drive.

yea i got the same problem :( i really dont feel like spending an hour to reinstall this thing, i tried to use the incremental patch, do u think if i tried the full patch it might help at all?

[BIB]

well i tried to do the incremental patch. I got a huge error and add to uninstall bf1942 and then reinstall it. Then i just did the full 1.45 install.
and yes it does mess up desertcombat. I have no sound when in the jets or helicopters. There is also a gray bar that is in the middle of the screen that will not go away.
does anyone know when the new desertcombat version is out. I here that the new dc will fix this.

[Aqrhine_tg_xXx]

heh, no wonder my road to rome wasnt working. what are the major changes in this patch? im downloading it now

[Koopa_Fett]

Just downloaded the Experience WWII mod for the first time and it's giving me a weird Insert Correct CD error. Anyone else getting it?

i dont think there is a set release date on version .4, they might release a .395 or something but i doubt it, its been a while since .3 released so it should be pretty soon hopefully!

Fixed for you, crabass.

[Aqrhine_tg_xXx]

heh, planes are fun whats more fun is taking planes out with bazookas

[Lusankya]

The incimental patch has problems.. especially if you have a no cd proggy installed.

Download the full patch and you shouldn't have any problems.

I haven't noticed any problems wiht the upgrade on DC.
Everything still works fine for me w/o any noticable changes.. sounds all work. No funky graphic annomolies..

All good
