Welcome to BF2
Here is some info you might find handy...if I haven't covered it or I've made a boob, please post.
dMw runs two BF2 servers
IP 87.240.138.22:16567 AAS Mod (http://landot.org:8080/landot/aas/)
IP 87.240.138.22:16568 PRMM (http://www.realitymod.com/) & AAS Mod
AAS stands for Advance and secure, which means that each side has to capture/defend flags in a pre-determined order (http://forum.deadmen.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10399) (The on-screen text tells you where to go next). This Mod does not require you to download any files. AAS ensures that, even on a sparsly populated server, both sides are fighting for the same ground.
PRMM stands for Project Reality Mini Mod. Designed to bring more realism to the game with such changes as: No enemy red tags & kill indicator removed, no crosshairs until weapon is shouldered/scoped, choice of shell in tanks, better ballistics etc. This Mod requires you to download files from HERE (http://totalbf2.filecloud.com/files/file.php?user_file_id=119525) or this Torrent Link (http://www.gloryhoundz.com/bt/prmm_0254_setup.exe.torrent) more info HERE (http://realitymod.com/index.php?page=about)
PATCHES:
BF2 needs to be patched to 1.2

TORRENT LINK (http://www.torrentspy.com/torrent/536675/BF2_1_2_Patch_100Mbit_seeder)
PRMM Map pack(new) (http://www.realitymod.com/)
BF2 Special Forces:
We are not currently running SF although several members have it and it is always available by special request(afaik)
TWEAKS: (http://www.tweakguides.com/BF2_1.html)
TROUBLESHOOTING (http://forum.deadmen.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=11275) (cheers Duvel)
X-Fire (http://www.xfire.com/) is handy but not essential for finding friends and servers, and also has a useful chat facility. If you get it then add your name to THIS LIST (http://forum.deadmen.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10781&hl=x-fire)
Hope you find this helpful & if there's anything else you need to know, don't be shy :D
sticky!
Good job Blunt, I have no idea how you got the idea though ;) 8).
BTW, I've edited a bit in the Troubleshootingpart.
Maybe you can put this behind SF and PRMM: After installing SF or PRMM, remember to reinstall the latest patch!

Actually Duv, I pm'd BB last night with the idea so :narnar:
I think the patching rigmorole was covered in your troubleshooting guide...n'est pas? :D
if not I'll edit it in if you write it 8)
I've edited my troubleshootingtext again.
Good idea though, it would be something I could have thought of aswell, oh yeah, I did aswell ;).
Maybe an extra thing to add, I believe there are some Nostromo N52 settings aswell from various people. Maybe adding a link about them would be handy.
good skills m8y :thumbsupsmileyanim:

well I can't find em :blink:
If you know where they are let us know :coolio:
Do you guys have regular days to play? Like BF2 Mondays?
And when do you start kl?
Blunt, I couldn't find them but I believe Ranger posted one. Ahwell...
Ragnar, correct, Monday nights are usually one of the most populated nights on our servers. 20.00 UK-Time there's a few people on.
BB or another forumadmin. Can you delete the other post plz? I think Blunt wants to have this thread kept clean.
It seems that they have a new mappack on PRMM: http://www.realitymod.com/
cheers Duv...added:smile:
I'll have to update this fully when I get a minute
No problem, I was downloading the latest PRMM for me on a CD (to take to the LAN aswell) and saw this.
Looks like some nice new stuff.
I'll edit this post soon, but if you have any suggestions I'd be grateful to recieve them.
No suggestions from my side as I'm still busy getting my Shuttle-LAN-ready. I'll have a look in to things when that's allright.
I've a DVD done of PRMM, POE, LFS, patches, drivers and sundry other stuff. Anything I missed?

Hmm, I think your definition of "soon" may differ abit from mine Blunty :narnar:
I was just thinking "Wonder if ppl are playing BF2". And I guess you do... Does the stuff in this post still go? Im |---| <-- that close to pulling the old DVD down from the shelf :)
Monday night is dMw's BF2. You have about an hour and a half before all the fun starts:boxing:
