Re: PunkBuster msg

That's a harmless warning message from PunkBuster. You can ignore it.

Go to <BF1942 dir>Modsf1942Settings and open VideoDefault.con with Notepad. Change renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 0 to renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 1.

I have that too sometimes. I don't know, probably server related. Maybe others can help you.

I never had problems playing BF1942 in Windows 7 x64 with Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode and administrator rights enabled. I have not tried Pixel-Fighter's patch nor played FH.

I'm playing with Win XP SP3 compatibility mode and it works perfect. But some people say that it doesn't.
For playing FH you can use this fix: http://yadi.sk/d/bM-JV5k53gh5A

Re: PunkBuster msg

What server are you trying to join?
To play FH you need to install fix from "Compatibility FIX for FH 0.7" folder only, two others aren't needed. After installation set Win XP SP3 compatibility mode for BF1942.exe.

Re: PunkBuster msg

I don't know about that, but as long as you have the latest PunkBuster client version you won't have any problems. I think latest released is v2110.

Re: PunkBuster msg

You have to run Battlefield 1942 with administrator privileges in Windows 7 or Windows Vista, if it has UAC enabled. Probably, it got saved in your documents folder because you had no administrator privileges.
Default video files have 0 in refresh rate position, probably, because no one changed that behavior since BF1942 v1.0 got released.
To see all refresh rates in game you have to add to your VideoDefault.con file:

renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 1

Re: PunkBuster msg

tuia told me that this msg isn't important..and many ppl see it in game.

I was trying it on SiMPLE server FG stalin and Moongamers and nothing so what server you prefer to update?

Look at pb folders from different source...example pb folder from Moongamers site and from this site got diff files...wtf

Re: PunkBuster msg

The PunkBuster installer hosted here is PBBans official release for Battlefield 1942. I don't know about other packages, never checked them, but you can see if your PunkBuster client version is the latest (v2.110) by entering console when you join a server.
