ok thanks a lot, couple of questions before i dabble with the installation: in the first linked post you say i must use custom profile - makes sense, will that profile show in the list in the game start panel, and can i still make further modifications to that profile through the game interface, like tweaking mouse sensitivity and crosshairs colour etc?

i have downloaded the zip, i should unzip it to just documents folder and not into the game folder?

being wary because i dont want to break my game ;-}

thanks

To open game console is the key above "Tab", left to "1" and under "Esc" key.

There are some cheats originally coded to work in single-player mode: http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/466245-battl … 942/cheats
Type in game console, for example.

aiCheats.code WalkingIsWayTooTiresome
aiCheats.code BotsCanCheatToo 

still cant get any key to open console, tried num lock on and off everything i can think of, do you know any settings in windows 7 that might be causing this please?

Thanks i read the link, and found the code line in my game files " ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_GIToggleConsole IDFKeyboard IDKey_Grave c_CMNonRepetive "   cant I just change that line without the replacement file??

Im pretty sure this is an issue with the keyboard itself, or maybe some other program that stops the console from working - really annoying as I want to use invunerable mode to experiment with  tactics on the single player maps

many thanks tuia - I ran the keycode exe for Rtr ( maybe I should also do same for Secret Weapons exp too) installed the no CD patch and widescreen fix, logged into Simple Rtr server fine, it kicked me on 2nd map, maybe I need the Secret Weapons code set as I guess the map rotation jumps from expansion to expansion, it worked fine on another exp server too,

brillaint help mate!!

just a shame the new maps installer wouldnt run, Im sure theres a simple explanation eh :-}

using a UK layout keyboard Ive tried all the likely combination to find the key to access the console - none of these ideas work
                 ~       shift & #
      *           `       key above Tab next to 1
                 ¬       same key with shift
     **          ¦      same key with alt gr



can I use the console in Single player mode?

any useful 'cheats' I can try in single player mode - invunerable would be good to explore maps and test tactics

thanks guys

one more thing - whats a good way to get an ingame screenshot pls?

hi Tuia - I cant understand why I would need to reinstall the programmes from a torrent when i have legit discs installed,
also McCranks said to 'search for SIMPLE' - I cant see a search facility in the server list view,  Red Scorpion mentioned using the right discs thanks mate but i always run the game off of disc 3

In a nutshell i would just like to try the expansion games online, as there are more weapons  etc to try, and more interesting maps.

gracias

hi am playing off a legit cd version of bf1942 anthology, but cant access road to rome expansion games online, "map not found" has been the commonest error

all advice welcomed

also i tried to add server details manually but guess i may have got that wrong - total rookie to all this - are the last 5 numerals the port number or part of the address pls

Enough said eh - I am a new player and I come to your servers to avoid that pointless and game-spoiling tactic base camping - I like to actually get to fly off the deck!!
