hello great to see this forum back online
vista is giving me trouble setting up again i needed to reinstall
the game is ok with getting use to admin right but ok
After i installed the da sabre addon the game version keep sticking to version 1.11 ? on both end i havent tried the no cd patches yet
I seem to remember there is a smaller patch to get it up to 1.12 ???

wow your fast
but the no cd patches did the trick thnx heaven
i could remember the sabre add on does simply patch it up to 1.11 at leats that is showing in vista at first
the patch just told me all was already patches
and installing the no cd patches was the trick to get it up to 1.12 haven,t played yet but that is next step

ok i need to reinstal and work on the order of install i geuss
i used the no cd patches they worked fine on getting the version number right.
even before i patched with the smal patch
but
i guess this is the order
instal hd2
run it one time create profile etc
install sabre
run the small 1.12 upgrade

Go into your hd2/profile folder there should be the serverlist.bin witch made crashes since arround 6 months. Well it seems that IS will not fix that. However if you made an empty readprotected serverlist it´s fixed. If you don´t know how to do that you can use this fix

Ok that worked but one thing
I cannot see the coop mission in the menu
where i wanna create a server
in fact they are the only maps i play so how can i fix that ?
i seem to be able to play and join but not host
i cannot find them in serverlauncher either
i did the fix but should i manually be able to get it right ?

If installed missions are missing in the hostmenue, the mpmaplist might not be updated.
The serverlauncher should be stored in your hd2 folder
