Steps to access new Simple Server

Go to Henk's patch here: https://www.moddb.com/games/battlefield … 2org-patch

Download the .exe file and swap it with your old .exe file (replace old one with Henk's one).

Click it and open up multiplayer servers, then update. You'll find the new IP addresses there.

Best wishes,
Varda.

Re: Steps to access new Simple Server

this exe is not required to join SiMPLE Server(s)

Its to make the serverlist functional and a few other changes (resolution and refresh rates)

Just change set desktop target to "C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\BF1942.exe" +restart 1 +joinServer 37.187.92.162:14567

OR with Powershell

$WshShell = New-Object -comObject WScript.Shell
$Shortcut = $WshShell.CreateShortcut("$Home\Desktop\BF1942.lnk")
$Shortcut.TargetPath = "C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\BF1942.exe"
$Shortcut.Arguments =  "+restart 1 +joinServer 37.187.92.162:14567"
$Shortcut.WorkingDirectory = "C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942"
$Shortcut.Save()

Re: Steps to access new Simple Server

Karl Donutz, you should not use the IP address, instead use team-simple.fr or bf1942.team-simple.org, they will always point to the new IP address, even though there should be no change of IP address in the foreseeable future.

Re: Steps to access new Simple Server

Just click the Update button inside the game to see the new servers. If that does not work you have to update your BF1942.exe or change your hosts file.

Re: Steps to access new Simple Server

I opened the game and removed the 4 Simple servers from my favorites list and replaced from the general server list. Seems all good so far. Although it looks like we lost all the modded name of bots though.

Re: Steps to access new Simple Server

The familiar bot names will be back and the bots number will be adjusted, accordingly. Any suggestions to new bot names is more than welcome.

Re: Steps to access new Simple Server

Resolving bf1942.team-simple.org or team-simple.fr, will always show the actual IP address of SiMPLE's Battlefield 1942 servers. It is not an HTTP server.

I recommend you try to connect with this instead:

+restart 1 +joinServer bf1942.team-simple.org:14567
