Thank you, Blindschuetz! That is more than enough.

That is fair enough. I will invest more time in policing the servers. There will be a new sheriff in town.

I'm sorry to hear that you've had a negative experience with the game you've been playing for years. It seems that your enjoyment has diminished due to various factors such as tough opponents, toxic players, and strict server admins. It's essential to remember that online gaming communities can sometimes have their challenges, but it's also possible to find supportive and friendly players if you look for them.

If you've decided to leave the game, it's crucial to do so with grace and without resorting to harsh language or negativity. You've already expressed your dissatisfaction, and there's no need to further contribute to any negativity.

In the future, consider seeking out different games or communities where you might find a more enjoyable and positive experience. There are countless online games available, and it's likely that you'll find one that suits your preferences and offers a more fulfilling experience.

Remember, it's essential to maintain respect and fairness in all interactions, both online and offline. Wishing you the best in your future gaming endeavors.

This made me chuckle. What are your suggestions, then? We are all ears.

Having lag compensation is beneficial to any first person shooter game, including classic Battlefield 1942 game, in my opinion. Aiming and leading your shots based on your latency to the server is an unrealistic feeling, and i believe it deters most players from fully enjoying the game. Lag compensation has its downsides, but if properly set up and tuned, the advantages clearly outweigh the cons.

This discussion reminds me when hit indication marker was enabled in version 1.2 or version 1.3 of Battlefield 1942, there would always be someone complaining about any change (improvement) to the game.

You should use Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 5) compatibility instead of Windows 98. I can't be sure now, but playing Battlefield 1942 on Windows XP did not require any compatibility mode.

Nice and funny video! I believe you have to disable audio when encoding to create your background.bik video, because the audio being played in Battlefield 1942 main menu is from Mods\bf1942\Music\Slaughter4.bik file. So, you would have first to encode the video without audio to create background.bik file and then encoding the audio without video, if it is possible, to produce slaughter4.bik file. The intro.bik file should have video and audio together, of course.

The 128px icon file is downsampled and looks blurry in the lower resolutions. Is it not possible to use a vector image to create an icon?

Nice video with good editing. Some of your kills are so lucky, they are impressive.

Alvarez latino likes to bully players, but can't see anything wrong with his messages in today's server chat log.

Here is another custom main menu video from Merciless Creations. Pick your favorite.
Download background-merciless.zip and extract it, next copy background.bik file to your Mods\bf1942\Movies folder.

Hello Christian,

Thank you for reporting it. The allied bots in Essen map are too afraid to enter the city, they just need a little push. They will be persuaded to enter the battle, don't worry.

Hello Kara-Kov,

It seems you are not using the latest BF1942 executable, so you cannot view in the servers list the *NEW* SiMPLE servers. When you hit the Update button nothing shows up, right? Then, replace your BF1942.exe or download and run the updated Battlefield 1942 GameSpy patch, which will do that automatically.

To answer your questions:
1- The new server IP is 37.187.92.162, port is the same 14567 and it is been online since about 2 weeks ago.
2- You have to hit the Update button with BF1942.exe newest version and remove the old server from Favorites, if you have it added to your Favorites list.
3- These are the new servers details:
*NEW* SiMPLE | BF1942   =>   Address: 37.187.92.162   Port: 14567
*NEW* SiMPLE | RtR+SW   =>  Address: 37.187.92.162   Port: 14568
*NEW* SiMPLE | New Maps   =>  Address: 37.187.92.162   Port: 14569
*NEW* SiMPLE | Tanks a lot!   =>  Address: 37.187.92.162   Port: 14571

If you have any problem updating your Battlefield 1942 game, reply back and I or anyone else will help you out.

I think there are no custom videos for Road to Rome or Secret Weapons main menus. I will search for it, though.

I am sure they copied your B17 moves.
