Battlefield 2 1.12 Patch Released

As expected, the Battlefield 2 v1.12 patch is now available through FileShack. The 281mb update ensures compatibility between the original game and the Special Forces add-on, and also fixes a few bugs
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a crash when users switch weapons using the mouse wheel while piloting a bomber (SU-34, F-15 and J10) in core BF2 maps.
- Removed the Grappling Hook and the Zip Line from kits from "The Iron Gator" map.
- Fixed single player loading screens to match map selection image.
- Fixed an issue in the menus so that users can click on BF2:SF ribbons to view the descriptions.
- Fixed an issue in the Browser so that BF2:SF servers are now represented with a green "2" icon.
- Global improvement of collision detection on the Grappling Hook and the Zip Line.
- Fixed damage state artillery icon on the 3d map when an artillery is destroyed.

Updated Windows and Linux dedicated server files are available as well.

      And it takes forever to decompress it so it can tell you you need another 3GB of HD space to apply it, and quitting without an option to retry after you've made space so you have to re-run it and wait again.
      that's just sad, but i guess you shouldn't expect much better given how buggy the game is and still is anyway.

        Apparently you need 3GB free on your C:\ drive, even though the goddamn game is on the D:\ drive.
        brilliant

          it all depends on where you have your temp directory. I you kept Windows' default, it's on c:\, but it can be easily changed to d:\ or whatever drive you want it to be.

            My %temp% isn't on C:. I have 36 GB free for it. :(

              yeah I'm sorry... With my brother, we just realized that the problem isn't the %temp% directory. Why the fuck it needs 3 gig on C:\ is beyond sanity.

              Dice is a bunch of retarded programmers with whom I've never seen so much ridiculous and blatant bugs that don't even get fixed patch after patch. Take for example the bug in the key bindings menu. All these keys that can't be mapped because they are supposedly already bound to another action but are nowhere to be found. Heck, that menu shows me that my crouch button is set to E, and I would like to bind it to X but I can't because it tells me it's already in use. And once in game, my crouch key is Z. Go figure.

              But still, BF2 is probably the game I've played the most since its release since the original Half-Life. I just can't get enough of BF2. I can't imagine what it would be if the bugs were all worked out.
