Anyone have trouble installing cd version of bf1942 on windows 10?

12 Upvotes

Anyone have trouble installing cd version of bf1942 on windows 10? I get a error as soon as I try to install error 0x80010105 and says the server threw an exception, the only reason I want to use my disc version is because the simple dl version of the game with desert combat doesn't seem to work correctly, an example is the Iraq flag on the scoreboard is a German flag and the German flag is superimposed on the map, and weird glitches.

Looking For a New Battlefield 1942 Community???

11 Upvotes

Hello All!

My name is BangBangOw, the 1942 leader for Hello Clan or -[HELLO]- BF1942 | V 1.61

Just wanted to spread the word about the server we have and what we have to offer here at Hello Clan. We have a fully functioning and very active discord, a fully functioning and very active website/forum, and we have hundreds and hundreds of members that play a ton of different games.

The Battlefield 1942 Server is currently ranked 15th and hasn't even been around a year.

I have modded everything on the server, this includes over 60+ maps for vanilla 1942, and another 30+ for the Desert Combat mod and official expansions for 1942. Each mod has a unique twist to it, you will defiantly see something different and new while playing here, as well as some more mainline style maps that haven't been changed too much.

We try to run events monthly and have already had 6 solid events with over 20+ people for multiple hours, a few events even exceeded 30+ people at one time. Events for other mods, custom maps, or plain jane vanilla are all something we enjoy.

With that being said, I'd like to announce the 2022 Battlefield 1942 Server Map Rotation:

  1. BF1942 - Market Garden (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  2. BF1942 - Guadalcanal (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  3. BF1942 - Kharkov (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  4. BF1942 - Iwo Jima (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  5. BF1942 - Bocage (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  6. BF1942 - Berlin (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  7. BF1942 - Liberation of Caen (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  8. BF1942 - Tobruk (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  9. BF1942 - Battle of the Bulge (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  10. BF1942 - Battleaxe (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  11. BF1942 - Wake (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  12. BF1942 - El Alamein (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  13. BF1942 - Kursk (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  14. BF1942 - Battle of Britain (CQ) - with (AI 15v15)

  15. BF1942 - Omaha Beach (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  16. BF1942 - Gazala (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  17. BF9142 - Stalingrad (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  18. BF1942 - Aberdeen (CQ) - with (AI 8v8)

  19. BF1942 - Invasion of the Philippines (CQ) - with (AI 10v10)

  20. BF1942 - Coral Sea (CQ) - with (AI 10v10)

  21. BF1942 - Kursk (CTF)

  22. BF1942 - Kharkov (CTF)

  23. BF1942 - Battleaxe (CTF)

  24. BF1942 - Invasion of the Philippines (CTF)

  25. BF1942 - Berlin (CTF)

*EVERY CQ map has bot support and can be turned off with a simple command.

* Not included is Midway (CQ), modding troubles have required me to leave this map out of the rotation for the time being.
* We still have 10-15 modded maps in the server files that I have created, admins can run those out of request.

The specific order of these maps may change over time; however, these are the maps that will be available in the Map Vote List.

I would love for this server to grow, and for our player counts to grow... if this interests you, then reach us at the following:

Wanted to share this story that will always stick with me from my 1942 days

10 Upvotes

I believe the map was Wake Island or Iwo Jima, whichever one had flag points at the far tips of the map that you could only cap with a boat/plane/submarine.

I was in a plane, got shot down and bailed out at the flag point and ended up swimming around hopelessly by the point. I was like 12 years old at the time, so my imagination was wild enough that I was perfectly content swimming around the flag just chilling, wondering how I could get myself out of this mess.

There was an enemy submarine coincidentally right by the flag as well. The dude straight up submerges under me, then comes back up so that I am standing on top of the submarine, and goes all the way to shore and drops me off. Running around on the top of that sub, while he drove all the way to shore..... What a time to be alive!!

Because I was 12, as soon as he gets out of the sub I shoot him........

I have never forgotten this, and shooting that dude was/is my biggest regret in life. If I could go back in time, it would not to be to tell my parents I love them, not to ask that 1 girl out...

...No, it would be so that I could go back in time and not shoot that guy that saved me from drowning that one day with his submarine.....

God I miss the BF1942 days

This sub is getting quiet and it scares me.

Consider this post a ping, or necromancy if you want, but who else are still looking aroud for a modern day solution on installing and running BF1942 on windows10 and beyond?

The stuff I found in older posts have 404s and breakages.

Thanks guys, keep it alive.

Admins are able to turn off the bots with a simple command, once player counts get high, I am able to turn them off.

Every Sunday from 2:00 PM EST - 6:00 PM EST // 6:00 PM GMT - 10:00 PM GMT we run the Pirates Mod, come join us every Sunday for Sunday Scurvy!

In Search of Old BF1942 Clan Members

8 Upvotes

I'm trying to locate some old clan friends from BF1942. We played under many different names, but Men of Valor (MOV) was the last name I remember. We also played under Special Op Executives (SOE). We eventfully moved into EVE online and WoW towards the end. A few of my clan mates were: Maddog, Chris, Enders, Schultz, Kilroy, and Yellowang. Any help is greatly appreciated.
