This happens due to resolution/aspect ratio and can't be fixed because the game is very old. However, you can try these options:
You can either use
game.chatOutline 0command in GeneralOptions.con in your profile folder (set read-only for that con file after editing) which removes outline
or just a lower resolution.
I have smoother fonts with 1600 x 900 on 1920 x 1080 display. Difference in image quality isn't that big, but maybe for me only.

Sometimes sound gets distorted for no reason. It happened to me in the past on Windows 7, and it happens now on Windows 10, but quite rarely. Restarting the game helps in most cases

Only a few people knew that I was banned for lang, but I really have no idea who this meph is
I would suggest to wait for MEPHISTO's answer, maybe they can clarify the situation. We definitely can't tolerate impersonation on SiMPLE servers

even better pc some lags while record need better program than bandicam i think.
What's the point of using anything other than ShadowPlay/ReLive?

and afterwards unlock fps in the videodefaut.con
I doubt unlocking FPS can help to reduce the lag in any way. Vice versa, instead of limited load of 100 FPS your GPU will have to render as much FPS as it can without any limit

"Multiplayerfree Camera template not found"
This may mean your installation is corrupted, so reinstalling is likely to help, indeed

They will run over landmines anyway, regardless of how big the tag is.
I think after a short time it becomes clear for them how to use the tags. Default indicator provides no information about exact landmines location, so considering that they are hard to see on the ground, people just hope for luck and keep running (actually I do it too sometimes, when enemy is close).
Seeing "MINE" approaching right in front of you should help

This was satisfying to watch lol. Well played.
Thanks 
I'm surprised to see that you select weapons with your scroll wheel but use the minimap zoom key. My brain doesn't understand :S
On my laptop "6" is too far from "W", so to select the wrench I have to use either the other hand or just mouse wheel. "N" can be hit with no problem

#13 Re: BF1942 Discussion » 3D map in bf42plus » 2024-06-03 21:36:17
Landmine tags are absolutely worth it. Friendly landmines are always totally unnecessary pain in the ass since the indicator on the right side of the screen is uninformative and very often bugged. Getting kicked for noobs rushing blindly and not caring about surroundings makes no sense. I see no reason not to enable it and not to make it as a default server setting.
As a client side patch, it gives an advantage but not in relation to enemy, so in my opinion it can't be considered cheating in any way. Landmines are placed by teammates and not by enemy...
Exppack/medic locker/ammo crate/repair pad tags are useless even for new players, from my point of view

This is absolutely impressive work, and the way of implementation is surprising. I couldn't imagine that a single dll file in game folder can bring such complicated changes. Great job!
All of the mentioned in Readme fixes and enhancements work fine. However, now there is no "is no more" message in the centre of the screen after you die on your own or suicide
#17 Re: BF1942 Discussion » Hit Registration Patch (Server Side) » 2024-02-25 16:18:16
so try to figure out the lag and compensate your lead like in any other online game
Name a few at least, please

Anyway, it seems counterproductive to have any content check enabled.
Too much time passed since content check disappeared in BF1942, returning it under the current circumstances will speed up server death

Tried it now. Doesn't work for me. How do you set it up?
Hotkeys don't work in bf42, automatic switch also.
Works for me with right Ctrl

Works for me just fine.
The only 2 bugs I encountered on win 11 is that
-you can't change the keyboard layout mid game (from typing EN to RU for example)
-sometimes when the game is folded (alt-tabbed), it can crash in a few minutes
On 10 it's same, and sometimes game crashes instantly after Alt+Tab. Layout issue can be solved with switcher software
#24 Re: Technical Help » Change Angle Rear View » 2023-09-19 21:03:14
Thanks for the help. I confused rear with front view.
I am thinking of the view when the cam is constantly in front of the vehicle.
The question is, can the angle be changed so that front view looks like image 2 instead of original view of image 1.
It's only for a video.Image 1:

Possible with modding, but requires either two players in vehicle or bot in driver's seat

Sometimes Shadowplay on my laptop suddenly stops recognizing DirectX 8/9 games, and the only thing that fixes it is resaving custom settings for them in Nvidia Control Panel. These settings work for me

After changes game feels smoother and less laggy for sure, but regs seem to stay same for me no matter what.
I don't support any silent changes in game, in my opinion at least ones which affect gameplay in general should always be announced. Would be great to have just more transparency regarding them.
Сonsidering current state of the game, experimenting with gameplay is unacceptable because it will only bring complete death of this game closer
