Battlefield 1942 1.31 Patch

Related Topics – Battlefield 1942, Battlefield

EA has just released a new patch for Battlefield 1942, updating the WW2 shooter to version 1.31. Here's what this patch takes care of

Network/Server Fixes - We fixed a crash in co-op mode when restarting the map - this crash was known to occur right after a map switch - We removed the default Remote Admin Password for servers - there was a default password in place that could be used as an exploit - We changed the object collision system to prevent exploits involving players hiding inside of objects - more widely known as the "Coral Sea" bug Client Fixes - We locked out an exploit to prevent users from seeing through walls. Sound Fixes - We modified several attributes of the sound system to provide better sound performance.

And if you run a dedicated server, here's the updated release of that.

I stopped playing this a while ago because I hated the way you had to lead your targets by a mile in order to hit them. It just seemed like a decent strategy/team game but a poor FPS. Was this ever improved? I want to give BF1942 another chance with all the interesting mods coming out now...

I installed this patch on my brother's computer that has had shitty sound no matter what was done to it, and this STILL DOESN'T FIX IT!!!

It's very obvious that they screwed up something in the 1.25 and 1.3 patches but that seem to either refuse to fix it or don't know how to. There are some people that can tweak their CON files to get better results, but there are others that the CON files don't help any. The 1.31 DOES NOT seem to fix this problem.

On the other hand, my computer has never had any problems with any version of BF1942...I can't understand what the big difference is between my brothers and my own computer that would cause the problem (not even a WinXP reinstall and changing the sound card fixed his probs).
