1.2 Patch and ASE

[Athan]

To get it working with 1.2 servers you'll have to edit the filters.txt (until there's an update that fixes it).

Go into your ASE directory and find the filters.txt file. Open this in a text editor, and search for '1942' to find the section:

Battlefield 1942
ServerType: NEW
RegKey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\GAMEDIR
ExeName: BF1942.EXE

HostTemplate: {EXEPATH} +restart 1 +hostServer 1

HostPort: 14567

1 if servertype != "OLD" goto 6
2 if gamename != "bfield1942" remove
3 if ip == "159.153.234.*" keep
4 if version == "v1.1" keep
5 remove
6 if servertype != "NEW" remove
7 if gamename != "bf1942" remove

Ok, look up a few lines, see the version == "v1.1" bit? you want to change that to 1.2, then save filters.txt, et voila.

Mine Auto updated and worked fine...

 

[Gumbo]

Mine too, though the little BF logo doesn't work in the browser, so it's just a generic windows folder logo.

 

[Embattle]

Mine 2.

 

[Will]

Mine is fine.*shrugs*

I didn't get an auto-updating thing, though it could have happened last night without me noticing.
