BF2142 Run Down please

G|mp · 20 Dec 2007 at 22:38

Right ive upgraded my PC so i can now play it with out lagging like a biatch

Running it on this:

5200+
3 GB Ram
X1950 Pro

What kind of settings do i need for this to run smooth as, im out of touch with all these newer games :/

Ive had a few games on the single player and dont really have a clue what to do ive attempted to get on the multiplayer but i dont get any servers up for some reason :confused:

Could someone give me a quick run down of what all this is about so i can get it on with the killing, i get the basics healing/vehicles and what not just sont get how im supposed to move up the rankings

Ive knifed some poor dude so i got a medal for that and top kills and that but i dont seem to have moved up at all rankings still on recruit and 0 :/

TIA

A post I got from another forum about this crashing fixed my issues....

Ok, the default folder as you know is C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 2142. Get to this folder, then click "Tools" and the "Folder options". Now click "View" and make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" radio button is ticked, then scroll down a little further and make sure that "Hide Protected Operating System Files" is UNTICKED!!!

press ok >

you will see a file called 'radial.cdb' >

rename to 'oldradial.cdb' to force a re-download of ads.

problem gone.

Did the trick !
