    hi guys, is there any way to uninstall the NS expansion. I cant play the `Bridge at Ramagem ` map as when it tries to load i get a CTD, if a server switches to that map I have to hit escape really fast or im out in windows.

    Do I have to reinstall the whole of 2142 to reinstall NS? If so it will be a pain in the ass.

    Any one got any ideas.

    A little experimentation on my end showed that going to the BF2142 folders\mods\bf2142 and deleting everything that mentioned bp1, and also in objects, and the three folders (Leipzeig, Bavaria, Remegen) from maps was enough to prompt EA Link to reinstall it instead of attempt to play it.

    Umm, I've now found that it seems to have broken my install. Probably best to ignore me at this point.

    Well it turns out that a full reinstall did fix that problem for me as I was playing on a lib of lepzik map the other then that bridge loaded next. Though I had to goto work then so I havent even played that map yet and new a new patch as come out since. Hope it works after patching.
