    Help me get my game back! Version issue

    Hey all..after a long, ummm, pause, I would like to return. Built a new system and loaded all....resolved a few issues...

    BUT..when I get into the multiplayer screen, I see that I have version .755 ! I can not get into TG of course because we are all .756.

    I absolutely loaded the correct way, with .756, the bf2 1.41 patch, everything.

    Any ideas other than uninstall/reinstall? How about the PR Patch that goes from .708 to .756?

    Thanks.

    PS, I did post this on the PR Mod forums also...but not getting much reply yet. I want to get on tonight.

    control panel should let you uninstall and try again. Check you have enough disk space.

    You've invented your own version?


    If you find yourself in a fair fight, then you have obviously failed to plan properly.

    Stevie, it wil tell you that you have .755 even when you installed .756

    For some reason the Devs missed that small detail...

    My version appears as .755 as well, at the bottom of the screen. I can get into all the servers just fine. Have you tried entering the TG server? Other servers? What error does it give you?

    I would:

    1. Uninstall BF2 and PR, and delete the whole BF2 folder;
    2. Intall BF2
    3. Download and install 1.41 BF2 patch
    4. Download and install PR 0.756
    5. Download and install PR Map Pack (not sure if they are 2 seppareted files, mines are)

    Maybe try re-downloading stuff, corrupted downloads may occur...

    Re: Help me get my game back! Version issue

    Thanks all...

    What happens is that I get an error for any server, which all appear in red, that I have an older version. I can play if I create a server and I can play vanilla bf2..yuck...and I am going to have to do a reinstall I guess.

    This is on my new build:
    Vista 64
    Asus Maximus Formula x38
    Intel E8400 core 2 duo
    4 gig OCZ Reaper RAM
    EVGA 8800 GTS 512 mb

    System has nothing else on it but bf2/PR, Vista, and COD4. Plays COD4 like crazy, but of course bf2 is always an issue. I have tweaked out vista, did all the drops that free up everything, and downloaded sp1. It is not a vista issue but I am going to have to do a reinstall of PR first since that is the older version error.

    Anyone think the .708 to .756 patch might do it?

    I did do this for the install....

    Maybe, like I said, corrupted file?

    If you can play vanilla, it's not the 1.41 patch. So i'd go ahead and try re-downloading the PR mod, from a different source you have downloaded.

    Make sure you have read extensively about vista, it is a known problem maker for BF2.

    Other than that, this procedure should work most of the time:

    1. Uninstall BF2 and PR, and delete the whole BF2 folder;
    2. Intall BF2
    3. Download and install 1.41 BF2 patch
    4. Download and install PR 0.756 Core
    5. Download and install PR 0.756 Map Pack
