482173 2006-09-02 07:17:00 I'm running version 1.04.501 of Battlefiled 1942 and can't find the right patches to bring me up to the current version.

HELP!!!

482174 2006-09-02 08:55:00 the patches you are looking for are:

1.6 full install
1.6 - 1.61b incremental

install them in that order

482175 2006-09-02 12:43:00 both are available from the official site www.eaplay.com Greven (91)
482176 2006-09-02 17:03:00 Thanx guys,

Do you think this might also stop the "Failed To Connect To Server" errors I keep getting when using the BF and All Seeing Eye servers?

482177 2006-09-02 21:25:00 Well, the patches worked fine, thanx again. But I still can't log on to a multiplayer server. At least it's not locking up the puter anymore. Rokitman (11083)
482178 2006-09-02 23:57:00 Have you checked your firewall settings to allow it to connect? Also, ASE is a lousy browser, known to be problematic - have you got an option to use anything else? Greg (193)
482179 2006-09-03 00:24:00 BF1942 is still popular as some people have had a gutsful of BF2 (mostly the ones of us past their teenage years).

Many of us play online on the NZ Servers or Aussie servers, recently participating in an Aussie-run competition where a group of us formed an United NZ BF clan and were stiffed by the Aussies in the semis due to their refusal to have a level playing field (ie playing on servers where our pings were at least twice or three times theirs for the semis - whereas they were ok playing on NZ servers during the round robins), but I digress...

NZ Battlefield (http://bf2.nzbattlefield.com) has some BF42 info in their forums. Join it and look in the 'Non BF2 Gaming' thread.

I still use ASE for BF42, but
X-Fire (http://www.xfire.com/) is a better game browser.

If you have problems connecting try using the in-game connect to server option and try 210.55.92.69 Port 20140, which is the standard Xtra BF1942 server.

If that doesn't work check you have Punkbuster enabled and install the PB SetUp file to update it (www.punkbuster.com).

Hope this helps ya.
