wont let me update 'error 1212'

[=BTB= LoftyB]

Still no luck

[Grimfist]

Hi,
Just been convinced to come over from the ARMA 2 crowd.
Have brought battlefield 2 the complete collection on steam.

Installed PR, then get this update error, have tried all suggestions in this thread to no avail. i have also disabled firewall and have no antivirus.
is this a widespread issue with everyone who has done a fresh install recently?
or is it just Windows 7 users/ 64 bit users?

Is it a case of waiting for DEV's to fix or should i use 32 bit windows or try something else?

cheers.

I believe its a problem with the updater, because I just started a single player game and it worked fine.

[Cass]

Any news on this?

Still getting this error when I try and update. Have tried everything suggested in this thread with no luck.
Would be nice to get an update.

[LITOralis.nMd]

Working on finding which file is corrupt and where.
Hang in there,
check in again in 12 hours.

[PlasticTastic]

Anyone get anything on this? Wanted to play today for the first time in a while, but I can't update. The C:\Users\****\AppData\Local\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\Downloads folder is empty. Windows 7 64 bit.

Thank you friend. Will check back then.

[jas888111]

thank you

[LAWolves]

LoftyB, try this:
PRlauncher->Options->Global->Check the "Keep Update Files" tickbox, ->Click Apply
try to download the update again.
then go look in the two directories again.

This worked for me in downloading up to the ...0.31 patch
Then it said the file is corrupt again

[AsterixG94]

Having the same issue with a fresh install as well. All the methods in this topic didn't do any help Hope that it will get fixed soon.

[Cass]

No update on this, still? :

[LITOralis.nMd]

Still working on this,
I can't find anyone with the
prbf2_1.0.29.0_to_1.0.30.0_client_patch.prpatch file as the updater didn't save the files locally until the updater was updated in .30 .
As soon as I can get a DEV with access to the file server to send me that file I'll post a download link to all the files from update .29 to .30 up to the newest .35 to .36.

[LITOralis.nMd]

Alright, we're in business
Step 1. Install the PR 1.0 release .iso . You should already have done this.

Step 2.
PRLauncher->Options->Global section, put a check in the "Keep Update Files" tickbox, click APPLY.

Step 3.
download this file:
Right click this link and Save to Computer.

Code: Select all

http://files.ancientdev.com/updates/prbf2_1.0.29.0_to_1.0.30.0_client_patch.prpatch

http://files.ancientdev.com/updates/prb ... ch.prpatch
Once saved to your PC, double click the file to start the update.

Optionally, Save it in
Windows Vista/7/8 :
C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\Downloads\
Windows XP Pro:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\Downloads\

This is the default location as listed in the PRLauncher->Options->Global section, under the "Update Download Location".


Step 4.
Navigate to C:\Users\[USERNAME]AppData\Local\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\Downloads\ and open the prbf2_1.0.29.0_to_1.0.30.0_client_patch.prpatch file.
You might need to associate the *.prpatch file type with the PRLauncher. If you need to associate it, it's located in \Battlefield 2\mods\pr\bin\PRLauncher.exe

Keep this Explorer window open, we'll need it again.

Step 5.
To test,
Start PRLauncher, and try to automatically update to 1.0.36
If it works, much joy and happiness.
If it doesn't work, we will download and install all the patches manually

!!!! NOTE: installing any patch out of order can cause total failure of the pr mod folder file structure and you'll have to do a clean install !!!!

EDIT: Once you install the 1.0.32.0_to_1.0.33.0 patch, you should be able to use the PRLauncher's updater to install the patches below:

Should i make a textdocument or were should i save it?

[LITOralis.nMd]

Right click this link
http://files.ancientdev.com/updates/prb ... ch.prpatch
and Save
Then copy it to
C:\Users\[USERNAME]AppData\Local\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\Downloads\
Open it from there to mimic the function of the PRLauncher.

[Cass]

Right clicked and saved, .prpatch file works now. Will try and download all the updates and see if it works.

[LITOralis.nMd]

Right click the link and Save the file. If you change the file format it will fail the integrity check. Once saved, double click the file to start the update.

[=BTB= LoftyB]

The updater has worked for me now Thanks LITOralis.nMd
