Project Reality v0.86 and BF2 v1.5 patch

[00SoldierofFortune00]

Yep, 1.5 will have prone devation! However I wonder how it works with PR (I tried 0.86 with 1.5b3 but it wouldn't start). Maybe a PR-DEV can answer on how this fix affects PR? Does it work and the accuracy is reduced for approximately 2sec like in vBF2?

That doesn't mean its gonna fix anything. Since when has Dice's patches ever fixed anything? THey break more than they fix (going from prone to crouch for example..). I just hope they make the engine more accessable so that the PR DEV team can fix any of the problems that weren't fixable before.

i'd rather play pr any day

Lets hope insurgency gets un****ed in the new patch.

Does this add widescreen support?

Yes in that you dont have to set it manually any more, however its still not true wide-screen i.e its still stretched not the extra FOV.

WRONG.
1.5 Final will have the FOV changing correctly according to the resolution. Its not working in beta3 but it will in Final.

If the PR DEV's can fix the patch to play PR on bf2 1.5 within a few days after release I would be happy to give a donation for it

[Viper.Sw]

Will the 1.5 patch fix the parts of the Vista/W7 sound issues?

[ma21212]

Euro forces and armored fury?! WTF I BUY THEM FOR THEN!

[DesmoLocke]

Hmm... gonna have to put PR off until 0.87. Too many new things to try out in vBF2. Might see some new and old faces around the servers.

Here is to hoping 0.87 doesn't take too long.

[Indian_Clay]

So then .87 won't have any new in-game content, simply just so it's compatible with 1.5?

[UncleRob199]

I paid for the expansion packs too, but Euro forces never worked! Hopefully it will after 1.5.

Also I hope it will support widescreen resolutions and FOVs without widescreen fixer

[Grasli]

Maybe you should read the following; DICE have updated their rules for mods and how much they can modify vBF2 content (this includes the booster packs content). It doesn't mean much to PR, its just some information..

There is nothing PR would need, other than this:

- Added Battlefield 2142 style prone deviation (going prone will now cause reduced accuracy for a brief period)

[gomimin]

1. They compiled the BF2.exe 64Bit and largeadressaware...
in 1.50b they only did with Bf2_r.exe (Debug) and forgot about the "real" one *lol*

2. giving away boosters for free (not SF!) they're just doing a favour to consumers and those who sell ranked servers - a real favour would have been giving the source to existing mod teams...

3. looking forward to 0.87 while playing 0.86

Dont forget about the BF2.exe allowed to use more than 2GB of RAM thing.

Thats fixed for Final. It works as it should for Final.

[sgt.helltrouphy]

lol soon project reality will be the 2nd realistic to war right behind the actual war this is getting better and better

[Grasli]

Also, dont forget about the security fixes. Thats important.

Also, maybe the most important, dont forget about the improved hit detection. Its improved a lot!

[Raptor007]

Darn it EA, your timing could not have been worse. PAX is the following weekend (Sept 4-6), and I don't know if they'll be running 1.41 or 1.5 on their BF2 servers. Guess I'll have to download the patch and hold it until I know for sure.

I am excited for PR 0.87 though! I hope the 0.86 kit bugs are fixed.

[antonlevay]

i also dont wanna download 2 gb, as i am on a capped connection. will there be a way to get this witout all the extra, (stuff), that is not needed? i just wanna play pr!!!
