Battlefield 1942 Mods, Modding Tutorials & Forums

Best bet, would be a program that would check current map in the server and scan BF1942 or mod levels folder to see if you have it, in case you don't automatically downloads it from a central server. Modifying BF1942 executable to include map download support is not an easy task. A small fix could b...

I believe, it is possible to enable PunkBuster in Battlefield 1942 v1.612 (Origin) server and client, but players, with latest PunkBuster installed, will most certainly be kicked out of server because of memory violations, because they have a different executable than BF1942.exe (v1.61), which PunkB...

Read BFServerManager Users Guide 2.0 and included readme.txt file in BFServerManager v2.01 for Windows.

Change server settings in DedicatedServer, press Start Server button, then Stop Server button after BF1942 server launches and settings are saved.

Some custom maps unfortunately have mipmaps generated for HUD textures and minimap. I have to play at lowest texture quality and those custom HUD icons are blurred and ugly. Fixed the menu textures, removing all mipmaps and exchanged some icons. Background.tga was downscaled to 1600x900, because it ...

Now there is absolutely no switching back and forth between resolutions. It is not a per...

BlackScreen.exe loads BF1942.exe and takes as parameter a process ID to open. I don't think it's used anymore in BF1942 v1.61. You can type "BlackScreen.exe 1" and see what happens. Resolution switching can probably be eliminated with some small code changes, BF1942.exe is hardcoded to sta...

Impressive work! Looks really good and very polished.

Not sure if this will be doable or not for you, but one thing I've been wanting to do (and I'm sure others too) is get the debugger exe to work to host/connect to internet based servers instead of just LAN. It is doable to modify BF1942 debug executable as you say, however it's not needed because y...
