Re: bf2 Vanilla or POE anyone?

I am currently reinstalling BF2 - have a very low level soldier and have only played it a few times, so should be fun.

Don't worry Princess, we all have lower level soldiers.

Got hooked on the Fallout 3 DLC's for a bit and look! the whole 2142 world falls apart while I'm gone. So I found my copy of BF2 and I'm going to reinstall it so I can rejoin the TG fun... since it is the only way to really play multiplayer games online.

So don't smack me too hard for my ignorance...

Is it easy to install POE for BF2?

and is it easy to switch between BF2 vanilla and POE?

I've never used a mod for the battlefield series so I'm just checking, don't wanna find empty POE servers and need to do some crazy uninstall to play vanilla.

Cheers.

Volvo, you'll have a separate desktop icon for starting either BF2 Vanilla or POE. While the POE mod does use the main BF2 game files to run, it doesn't do anything wacky to your Vanilla installation. You just use the appropriate icon for the one you want to play. No need to un-install/re-install anything when switching back and forth between the two.

or you could just use the start menu if you do not have the desktop icons.

Or you could have them all neatly across the top of your screen in a program such as RocketDock, like me, so they are still very easy to find, yet not all scattered across the desktop. 8-)

Or after playing a few rounds in BF2 you can go to the menu and click on "Community" "Custom Games" and you can launch POE2 from there!

**volvo13** · 01-29-2010, 10:20 AM

or I could close my eyes and randomly click around on my desktop and start playing with photoshop over teamspeak.....
