Last Month the Japanese try to retrive this mod a little bit more. They played in the at 2pm CET. At the moment the gametracker,com Server Monitorring is off. Hope soon they turn it on. The ranking seems to work.

I`m sure i`m repeating myself here , but here goes again .
I can happily modify and play/test the map i am currently working on all day , but when i decide to go into a vanilla Battlefield game it crashes to desktop . Now i dont know many people who map for Interstate , in fact its just one , but he has the exact same problem as me , so in my view this is a 100% stike rate .
Just so i know , who are the mod-team members here ? ...

OK i (think) i know the solution. Open up your C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\init.con file with notepad. Find the two lines that say:
rem Battlecraft 1942 added this command in order to generate lightmaps for this MOD game.addModPath Mods/interstate/
Delete them and any other ones you see like for instance if it says desertcombat instead of interstate delete that too. This should fix the problem.
Oh by the way OC stands for Overclock <span class='smallblacktext'>[ Edited 13 Mar : 01:22 ]</span>

I have re-installed BF again to-day .
And Interstate too .
Everything was ok , i could play all mods and vanilla Batlefield with no problems , until i entered Battlecraft and loaded a map , and left without saving .
Now i can play all mods but not normal Battlefield .
I deleted the line you suggested , but BC generates this line everytime you exit the program .

Right you can probablly disregard the last post because .......
I went back into the "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\init.con" file and deleted the relevant line again and now everything works fine .
But if i go back into BattleCraft it will re-write the line back again , so what do i do now ? ...
you could try making a copy of battlefield just for mapping and change BC to point to the copy - after making the map just swap it across to the bf that you are using to play.

You pretty much have to deal with it... It's annoying but everytime you want to play vanilla BF you have to delete that stupid line. I don't think editor 42 does that though so if you want to try switching to that map editor it might be a good idea.

Thanks for highlighting what the problem was Massive , i dont switching to Ed42 will be a good idea as i havent ever tried this program and i`m a bit set in my ways , thanks anyway .
