    Is the TIG server still up?

    Found It.


    But why Lost Village only? I mean, the mod is just out, why begin limiting maps already?

    Nostalgia?

    first time i've gone back to the BF2 engine in a while, i forgot how much i hate bunny hopping in Bf2. anyway the server i was on was lost village only, with the 2nd round being no parachutes, it was interesting to say the least.

    I've installed 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 but I can't see any servers online (not too worried) nor can I see any maps listed for an instant battle.

    What am I missing?


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,912 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ponster


    You just need to install the latest pack.

    Are you using the DC icon on the desktop to run the game?

    Can you connect to these servers? The DC exe is "DCon_v0.1a.exe" so I don't know what versions you're talking about.

    So far I've found DC hugely disappointing. As a mod it doesn't bring anything new to the game, unlike POE or EOD.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,967 ✭✭✭Pyr0


    Hit where you aim ftw !!!

    Oh and CTF is a great laugh also !

    Its DCON, and yeah theres some models that are still the same but the gameplay is totally different.

    Did you ever play Desert Combat?

    I have the following:
    DCon_v0.1a.exe 676MiB
    DCon_CTF_V0.2.exe 94.4MiB
    DCon_CTF_V0.3_Patch.exe 409KiB
    dcon_ctf_v0.3_server_patch.zip 62.7MiB
    I've uninstalled DCon and am going to try 0.1a on it's own.

    I don't know where / how the DCon CTF installers fit into the framework.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,285 ✭✭✭TheHairyFairy


    Anything with ctf in its name was a seperate minimod Syxpak, you dont need them as ctf comes with the 1.0a installer.

    Yep.

    The 0.1a is all you need

    I installed 0.1a there, it said it needed to uninstall the existing dcon, I clicked yes, let it do its thing, and then fired it up via the desktop shortcut ("D:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/dcon)
    Logged in via online account, no servers, no maps visible for instant battle, same with offline account.
    Will try scrubbing the dir and clean install later.
    Reading the launch thread for possible clues at the moment.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,912 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ponster


    What happens when you try to connect to a server manually by entering the IP address?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,285 ✭✭✭TheHairyFairy


    Delete the "dcon" mods folder in BF2's dir. Reinstall and you should be good.

    Instant battles don't show up, but if I go to create a Lan server, everything's gravy.
    Still can't see servers in in-game browser, tried connecting to direct IP of one last night from Ponster's link, didn't connect.

    Is the TiG server still up?

    There is now instant battles or single player, only multi player.
