1.4 Full Patch version - issue

Post by Tobba »

Hi guys,

I've recently re-installed BF2 and tried today to apply the full version 1.4 patch.

The download of the patch went fine, but on installation, it failed at around 95%... "Patch Failed" dialogue box or similar.

Has anyone had this problem - is there another version of the installer I should try?

Thanks for letting me know.

Mike

Howdy! I did a little googling and came up with the following, which people on other forums seem to agree works *fingers crossed*
TotalBF2.com Thread wrote:1. Double click the bf2patch_v_102.exe you downloaded, select you country and click Next.

2. Browse to your temp directory e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp and arrange icons by modified (note: you will need hidden folders to be visible - tools > folder options > view)

3. Open the folder with a name similar to {43604D32-1F10-4C64-A8F8-9324E19AF2C2} and copy all the files to C:\Patch (create this folder).

4. Click Start, Run, type CMD and press enter. At the command line type cd c:\patch and press enter. Then type patch.exe "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2" - or where ever you installed it.

The command Window will then display a load of text saying it's applying changes to files etc. It does take a long time to finish though...have registered on this forum and typed this post and it's only just finished.

The command Window will say once it has finished - close it, along with the patch installer and go play Battlefield 2! :D

By the way, this is for the Patching Failed error.
Edit: shouldn't this be in the "Help Forum"? ;)
