- Patch v1.01
Fixed in issue that caused the Multiplayer Browser to become unresponsive.

Fixed an issue where some game controls were not available to be rebound within the Options menu.

Fixed an issue with increasing performance degradation on servers.

Fixed a problem with shader caching on client/host : after the first
map in a rotation, shaders would be loaded on the fly during gameplay.

Fixed a crash with rebinding LMB

Fixed a problem that caused environment mapping to not appear on
reflective surfaces.

Fixed a crash that happened when a client picks up a kit that doesn't
exist anymore.

Fixed a problem with AI when the game was paused for a long time: bots
would become unresponsive and also shoot more accurately.

LOD distances tweaked on certain objects.

From the readme file.

They also did a few smaller tweaks like allowing you to see the IP while in the game.

i understand what they said they were going to do, but did it actually work any better? like the ingame browser? did they tighten up the netcode?

The ingame browser is better than it was. Still needs alot of work though.
The game control binds were never an issue for me.
The third fix is a bunch of bull.
Fourth fix actually did something.
The game control binds were never an issue for me.
You can actually see reflections in the sniper scope now.
Never was a problem for me.
Never was a problem for me.
Never noticed it, but alot of people did.

i just installed bf2cc daemon/client and was wondering if somebody could log into the machine so i can see how bf2cc works when peeps are on. just type bf2.sytes.net in the ip box or the actual ip - 70.176.71.63

thanks in advance :)

thanks but no thanks, the bf2cc is nothing compared to blackbagops bf1942/bf:v manager...another strike against ea...basically all you can do is what you can do easily in the game, no scheduler or anything :(

its a designator to show which vehicles are manned and hostile or friendly...

open boxes are a manned vehicle that is hostile..
box with an X = friendly manned vehicle.

and yes im pretty darn good and dropped metal on unssuspecting flag cappers.
