In your BF1942.iss file, you could use this function to support also BF1942 downloaded from Origin as detailed in this post: http://team-simple.org/forum/viewtopic. … 361#p51361
Installer is not cleaning bf1942_from_url.bat file after uninstall and is not working in Windows 7, probably because of administrator rights.

Fixed. Thank you very much. About uninstaller, I just removed it from installer, as there isn't much sense in it.

Inspired by new fh2:// protocol and in the light of recent news about Gamespy, I decided to create one for BF1942. It allows you to join servers from the browser just skipping the login process.

You need to install this small application and then you will be able to join servers from browser, Teamspeak, etc. just by clicking links in the form of:

bf1942://server.ip:port/{mod_name}

e.q. to join Team-SiMPLE server: click
or FHSW-Europ server: click

This installer automatically searches for BF1942 installation directory in registry, and if it fails, then it will left directory blank for user to fill in. Then it extracts .bat file into the BF1942 directory and adds some registry keys, required for operation of protocol. The program is open source and source code with resources can be found here.
