Title: Corrupt WW2 mod file?
Post by: CU||Y on January 16, 2005, 11:20:02 AM

Hi guys, i downloaded the BFV ww2 mod from your downloads section overnight on my lowly 64k connection.
I installed,joined a server,map loaded then got corrupt data message.
Any ideas?
Is this file corrupt maybe?
Thanks guys.

The file in the downloads is a direct link to the EA Server's so the file itself isint currupted.

I think there may be a problem if you install the WW2 MOD after you install the v1.21 update. Try reinstalling the 1.21 update after you have installed the WW2 mod.

The file you downloaded is not currupt as you were able to install it correctly. If the file had been currupt you would have been unable to install the mod.

I had this problem also..You have to uninstall the whole game and reinstall. Then apply the patches in the correct order.

You can also just go into the Registory and change the version you have in there and it shall let you install the update. I havn't done this myself so im not sure if it does work, but in thoery it should. So its like Communism really.

** This requires changing the registory so do be careful and makre sure you know what your doing! **

Go: Start > Run, then and type regedit

Go through and find the following:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" -> "SOFTWARE" -> "EA GAMES" -> Battlefield Vietnam.

Open up the "INSTALLEDVERSION" key and change it to 1.20
