Someone post a link the minute they have it. I need it. I want it. I got to have it. I'm feeling a moment like the first time I got into BF1942 demo and Diesel and Onji are yelling "we can't get off the Carrier deck, everyone keeps peter paning off the end of the Carrier, no one can fly" Then I'm doing barrel rolls with Darren in the gunner seat and he and I are having a blast. That was a very fun demo. Get ready to be my RIO Darren.

anyone playing it yet? I went through the whole installation and click on the icon, screen goes black like it's trying to load, but after a few sec. I get back to the desktop.

just wondering if maybe I have a bad file or if there needs to be some command line variables or whatever.

Nevermind. after trying to tweak all kind of crap and play with a bunch of settings I finally read the readme. my video card is not supported. using a GF4Ti4600. have to have a GF-FX5700 or above with atleast 128mb ram, 256 recommended. guess I'll stick to CS:S for quite a while longer till I can upgrade.

LA_MERC_Mercy
June 10th, 2005, 08:01 PM
yeah i had to update my drivers to play it correctly...but i can tell you it is awesome...you need to upgrade CO...just do it man

LA_MERC_Sabre

damm, I was hoping I could play it but my card is crap too.....oh well.

I tried what Zen said to do but me and WinRAR just don't get along so I couldn't get it. And to put the icing on the cake I thought that fileshack would automatically start downloading it when my turn came up. Not so said the prompt. So I'm still BF2 Demoless. Guess I'll try again today and see what happens.

LA_MERC_T4rg3T
June 11th, 2005, 10:11 AM
Exiles, did you try the link that I provided?

LA_MERC_Drifter
June 11th, 2005, 10:15 AM
yeah the link that Toby put up works very well.... I tried the stuff that Zen put up as well and the file was corrupted so i had to try something else

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
June 11th, 2005, 10:17 AM
I'm getting it from the blueyonder link Toby put up. But I see it's also a WinRAR file and for some reason I screw up when I unpack those and can't get the file to work. Any tutuorials for idiots like me on how to successfully use WinRAR?

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
June 11th, 2005, 10:22 AM
Actually the file ending on the BF2 demo is a zip so I *shouldn't* screw anything up. But I still can't use WinRAR b/c Ima nub.

LA_MERC_Diesel
June 11th, 2005, 11:56 AM
now this winrar takes awhile to do..just let it sit for a couple of minutes


BTW...This game is beautiful

What a kick butt game. Sorry Al even if I sent you my old GForce4Ti 4200 you wouldn't be able to play. Everyone needs to upgrade as this game has set the bar. The way they did team speak is really cool. Each squad talks to each other. Then the squad leaders can talk to the commander (who by the way is a really kick butt position to hold). I especially like the way that when you die you lay on the ground until you resawn and a medic can heal you right there and back up you go and that if you do respawn you can respawn on your squad leader so your always sticking together as a team. A cool scenario was when Toby was squad leader driving an M1 tank and when they killed me sticking out the top gunners spot I respawn right back into the tank with Toby. Then Mike tells me that crouching while in the top of the tank will make you get down into it. That's a handy piece of info. Artilerry is awesome the vehicles are great and the game play is unreal. This will definately be a game I play a lot of. For me the best is hooking it up to my61 HDTV and flying around. I will take a pic and show you guys. It ROXORS the BOXORS!

I can't get the demo to work. I installed it fine but when I go into the game I get to a point where I pick singleplayer or multiplayer but as soon as I click on anything my whole computer locks up. Even control-alt-delete won't take me to taskmanager, I have to use my power button to restart my computer. I just updated my drivers thinking that would be the case but it still locks up on me.

i had a problem not being able to bind certain keys, even tho they were not being used, i found the fix, i thought it may be helpful for others:



Okay finally here's how to remove all those "phantom" bound keys that you can't unbind within BF2.

Go to
My Documents\Battlefield 2 Demo\Profiles

Open up Global.con

Note which profile it's using (I Default, 0001 and 0002 and mine was set to 0002)

Open up Controls.con

If you look at the top line for each subsection, it says Infantry, Land, Air, Helicopter, Sea, and Default. Each is pretty self explanatory with the exception of Default. I believe this is what ingame calls "Common".

The bound key is at the end of the line

IDKey_Key Name Here

Delete the whole line of the occupied keys you want to change. OR Change it to an unused key of your choice. Some of them were probably taken out last minute (like Left Alt was set to Toggle 3D Map but there is no way to change that ingame. and X is set for Flare in Sea. Can you even fire a flare in a boat? I never tried.)

Save the file.

Now you can bind them ingame.

Enjoy

here is another one for speeding up the booting of the demo, by getting rid of the intro movies:


If you don't like all those intro BS movies.
Go To your BF2 Demo directory -> Mods -> BF2 -> Movies
And you can delete all of the movies(however I would reccomend keeping the menu and menu login ones)

No more stupid splash screens starting up the game.

Instead of deleting them, I just renamed them and put a .bak extention on the end. just a suggestion.

LA_MERC_Mercy
June 13th, 2005, 01:36 PM
well i looked at the key mapping in the control.con file and i see the lines, only thing is, i dont know how to tell it to set the correct pitch and roll.

These are the two commands that are bound:

first forward pitch

ControlMap.addAxisToAxisMapping c_PIPitch IDFGameController_0 IDAxis_1 1 0

and now roll to the left

ControlMap.addAxisToAxisMapping c_PIRoll IDFGameController_0 IDAxis_0 1 0

I have teamspeak now so I'm ready to play some online. I've tried to create an account 3 times with zero results. How long does it take to create an account? I've left it alone for 5 to 10 minutes but nothing changes on the screen and there are no servers for me to join.

It did the same thing to me ex....I closed it down all together then tried again and it said that email and pass where already in use. so I just put in my password and there it was. don't know if this will help but that is what happened to me

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
June 13th, 2005, 05:18 PM
Yeah same thing with me drifter, what time do yall play this thing? I got to do a little internet playing and I got some kills but driving the vehicals is NOT what I'm supposed to be doing. Haven't got to fly a plane or helicopter yet but in BF1942 about all I could do in a plane was crash.

Had a blast last night! Especially when we got to be on the same team and we would get the whole armor unit rolling. Tons of fun, but if I suddenly disappear from the forums and server it's because my wife killed me for playing on the computer too much.

I'm only half joking ;)

June 14th, 2005, 09:53 AM
I must say, I had a lot of fun playing last night, especially the last round, when I was driving a tank and diesel was manning the top gun, we were going from point to point, killing everything in sight, capturing away....what a blast!

I may not be able to fly worth a darn, but I can sure spin that tank on a dime!

LA_MERC_eX1|eS' ch1|d
June 14th, 2005, 10:30 AM
Yeah I've decided I should stay away from planes and heli's. Crashed a plane myself at the end of the runway. Jumped in a MiG with Diesel where I was the missle shooter, after 4 shots that were no where near any enemies, he crashes us into a mountain. The heli's I got in were either shot down or when I jumped out someone would shoot me. I'll stick with tanks and buggies. I did get a couple knife kills. :)

LA_MERC_Andyconda
June 14th, 2005, 12:00 PM
OMG this game rules. I had a blast last night guys. Flying helo's is my passion on the game. I love it and can't get enough of it. Darren how did you take those screen shots. I also read somehwere that we'll be able to easily record movie files with sound, is that true.

LA_MERC_Onji
June 14th, 2005, 12:51 PM
just hit printscreen, it sticks the screenshots in your 'my documents' folder, it makes 2 copies of the screenshot, one is a .jpg, one is a .png. and yes, there is a battlefield recorder that you can use to make movies, but the server has to have the option enabled, and 90% of the servers dont have this setup yet, and i havent even tried to fool with it

LA_MERC_Skitsvelvet

June 14th, 2005, 07:38 PM
I played for about an hour earlier today on Black Cell to try to get some flying lessons in. Wow do I suck at flying. I did get one kill in the Black Hawk...when I crashed into the other helicopter. LOL! I was trying to turn so I could shoot him but I just kept flying sideways until my rotor went through his windshield and the rest of the Black Hawk took care of the rest. I'm about the same with planes I can fly ok but not and try to shoot anything. It was just me and 2 people against me and they could fly and take over bases but when I caught them on the ground they couldn't hang with CS shooting skillz. Any tutorials on flying planes and copter's? Do you guys use the mouse or the arrow buttons? Did you change the sensitivity for flying?

LA_MERC_Skitsvelvet
June 14th, 2005, 11:00 PM
I like to use the W,A,S,D keys with the mouse. I also jacked the sensitivity up along with the Yaw and Pitch. If I could just get the helo to spin on a dime I would be happy.

LA_MERC_Onji
June 15th, 2005, 06:42 AM
Had a blast last night again guys, except for my connection issues, i swear i was dropped 5 times. The last time it happened i slammed my headphones on the desk, stood up to find the issue. Come to find out, there is one phone in the house that if you pick it up, it'll kick me off line. After a little temper tantrum, and threatning anyone in the house to use that phone again, i was back online. Im betting i need to put a dsl filter on there. Anyway, While I was reconnecting i grabbed a screenshot of teamspeak, we had a good bit of folks on! Shadow jumped in right at the end when everyone was leaving or about to leave, sorry man :( jump on tonight if you can! we try to gather 8'ish CST.

June 15th, 2005, 07:41 AM
Thanks Skitsvelvet I remember playing with you both nights...er in gamelike. I found that it was easier to fly with the mouse also, but I think I need to up sensitivity some. WTH is yaw and pitch? Is it when the whole aircraft turns parallel to the ground?

LA_MERC_Andyconda
June 15th, 2005, 08:27 AM
Nice screen shot Diesel. Also like teh screeny of team speak Darren, wow, 10 of us on at once that's a record for the last year or so. Also, some quick flying lessons. First and foremost if you plan on getting good with the planes YOU MUST HAVE A JOYSTICK. Now Dirge will tell you lies and say that you can fair well with the mouse but the true hard fact is you can NOT out turn someone with a joystick using a mouse. The joystick keeps a constant pull back where eventually with a mouse you have to pick it up and move it high up on the desk to get more downward movement to pull back (or if you wierd and fly without inverted mouse that would be down to move the mouse up to fly up, that alone doesn't make sense) However I fly the Helo's with mouse and keyboard and will out do anyone with a joystick becuase you don't need to constantly pull back or push forward for the high spin turns in a helo. All you do is roll the helo to the right or left and then use you strafe key to the matching right or left and you spin on a dime. Usinh the WDSA keys where a and d are your strafe keys key simply means if you strafe right in the helo it will spin to the right. This is slow though. By rolling the helo (moving mouse to the right) and straf right (d key you create a power turn). The trick is to remeber that anyhting you do in a helo needs a counter move. Much like driving a boat or say the space shuttle. When you turn right or roll right remeber to counter act with a slight roll back to the left and strafe to the left or you helo will continue to roll and yaw. Basic definitions are as follows

YAW is the movement of the helo by spinning (if you use the d and a key the helo will spin around in a circle (This is YAW)
Pitch is the position of the nose up or down (Since I use inverted mouse I pull down on the mouse "Move my mouse downward" to nose up the helo.
ROLL is self explanitory. If you move your mouse side to side you will ROLL the helo on its axis.

Remeber there are 6 DOF (Degrees Of Freedom) with aircraft movement. + and - in X,Y, and Z axis (for cartesian coordinate system) witch is yaw, pitch, and roll. I can also break this down into polar coordiantes whcih utilizes angles. Does this help any.

P.S. Lat night was a blast but I'm pretty sure I'm close to a Divorce. BF2 Demo is consuming mass amounts of my time and it's worth it.

P.S.S. Darren I had the same problem with my ADSL. My wife (Candace) bought some new cordless phones for the house and plugged them in without the ADSL filter. Anytime someone called it would drop me. After having the Bellsouth guys comeover and chech the house they immediately noticed one of the phones didn't have the filter on it. I put the filter on and haven't had a problem since. Now I do have a switch that Robby gave me that you hook up on the outside of the house to the line that feeds your ADSL modem that disconnects ot bypasses the audio wires and isolates your data wires so that none of that is an issue. Haven't hooked mine up yet, but the filters are a definate must.

P.S.S.S. I attached a quick pic of Yaw, Pitch, and Roll

Onji,

Do you have two lines in your house? If not, it would be advisable to do a home run to your ADSL modem to eliminate problems such as you are experiencing. It would involve getting a splitter (I can get for you) and using the yellow+black wires in your inside telephone wiring (or any pair in normal ethernet cable, whichever type of inside wiring you have) and putting the data signal on there. Then at your phone jack, put the yellow+black on the main terminals so the phone line hooks into them. If you use a phone out of the same jack as the ADSL line, then you would have to install a dual RJ11 jack faceplate.

Let me know and I can help you out with the process.

LA_MERC_Skitsvelvet
June 15th, 2005, 09:43 AM
Andy, I totally agree. Trying to fly the jets with a keyboard for me just sucks. Now I did hook up my joystick to practice flying helicopters but I found that I do better with mouse and keyboard. I increased the yaw and pitch to about 7 and the sensitivity to 8.50 I found it helped alot with response time.

LA_MERC_Andyconda
June 15th, 2005, 10:10 AM
Yeah, I wonder now with all the time I'm logging flying the helo with a mouse I will probably get a joystick and use it for just flying planes and stick to the mouse and keyboard for the choppers as I'm doing so sell with it. I have perfected a rotor wash move that stops the helo onthe spot to make following choppers fly right by. You just simply nose up hard and let off the power and actually apply some reverse thrust until they fly by then nose back down and forward thrust. Now the target is in front of you and if you have a gunner like Nutria, Dirge, or Temp, it's all over but the crying.

Well I got in a little more practice on the helos and I did successfully take off and land a few times before I died. :) I raised the sensitivity to 6 but left the yaw and pitch alone since I wasn't sure what it did. I'm a little better with the mouse and WASD but when I move my mouse slightly sideways when I was trying to just move it forwards or backwards is where I get messed up and go sideways to the ground and usually crash. Basically I just over correct. I'm going to keep trying though because I think the helos are the best part of the game. In planes I'm moving so fast I can't aim and hit any targets without crashing.

I have no problem flying planes or helicptors, but I use a trackball, so I can keep rolling the ball to keep constant movement in the direction I need.

I am trying to get my co-worker to let me borrow his Rudder Control System. I would like to give it a whirl with the flight stick and RCS.

I had fun when I actually stayed alive more than five seconds. I was still trying to configure my system most of the time and get back into playing the game. My computer locked up a couple times so I'll eventually get another vid card...I've been putting it off for a while anyway. Sorry can hop on tonite, but I've been working a lot lately to get $ together to buy a new car before my girlfriend's dies on us. I'll catch yall in the next couple of days in there. It is a SWEET game though.

LMFAO, did any one realize that the screen shot Darren has of Robby killing three team mates at once has that guy Vincent in it that I killed once and got banned. How can Robby slaughter the piss out of team mates, but I kill one annoying team killer and I'm banned, What up wit dat. Plus the fact Robby and I forgot we switched to MEC side and our first bombing run we see (What we thought was the enemy MEC flag, but was our own) the MEC flag and DEATH FROM ABOVE. Only problem is first pass I kill 3 teammates and Robby gets 5 kills. So a total of 8 kills of team mates and I'm banned and Robby is not. LOL. Also that's a very good before and after pic of me in the helo Onji. LOL.
