Northern Strike Unmodified Content Error

Reaperassault · 05-02-2007, 01:03 PM

I just purchased NS this morning and tried to join the TG NS server. the map loaded and the 'join game' button came up and I try to press it and nothing happens then a second or two later the map closes and I go back to the main screen with a pop up message saying "this server only allows players with unmodified content to join. please revert you version of battlefield back to the official version."

I have tried on several different servers and I get the same message every time.

Is there some time to wait before EA realizes you have NS? or is there something else that I am missing.

Any help would be appreciated.

I had the same problem and was able to resolve it by reinstalling the latest patch for Battlefield 2142. It sounds a bit odd, since someone can purchase the booster pack with a fully updated version of the game, but does seem to fix the problem.

Reinstall the 1.25 full patch.

The booster overwrites some core files that have to match the server's file versions. If that doesn't work. It's a reinstall of BF2142, then NS, then 1.25 Patch.

get the patch from a site other than EA link. many people (including myself) have had problems with the patch installing then when its done telling you you need to install the latest patch...um I just did!!... then I got the same error message you got. I d/l'd the full patch from Fileplanet and it works fine. also make sure pb is updated
