Default Proper Install order

Ok, I need some assistance from all you great regular posters.

first off, My problems came from the last patch. Ok I'm sur everyone or alot of people had to re-install Bf alittle while ago because the 1.4 to 1.45 patch messed up, so we all had to reinstall apply patch..etc and then do a full 1.45.

Ok, i did this. I re-installed Bf, then did RtR, then did 1.45 patch. I then wanted to re install the maps..(coral, BoBritian, aberdeen) but it didn't work because I was 1.45

ok, my question is when i reinstall again, what order do I have to do it in to get all the maps right?

Do I need to ... start with..Bf, then RtR. Then install coral, aberdeen, BoB. then do I install 1.45?

This was such a pain in the ass, I should have done it the first time correctly, but I also wanted to play. I want to tke this weekend and get All my BF games Installed completely and fully. please help.
I need to make this next re-install my final reinstall....

thanks for all your help

I think u need to install the extra maps "in between 1.4 and 1.45". That is BF1942>Road to Rome>1.4>extra maps>1.45.Try it. I experienced the same problem as u, but as I bought Secret weapons my problems are now fixed. If it works, be sure to make a new post here so others will know if it does. If it doesn´t, well post so they can see I was wrong....

My dear friend, the 1.45 patch contains the maps you are trying to install.

What I can recall I had 1.45 installed and I tried to play "Battle of Britain" but it said I didn´t have the map for it. I can also recall that I made a post about it, but after SW I didn´t need to care anymore.

So, Gab. U could do.....

BF1942>RtR>1.4>Battle of Britain>1.45. Or just try the one I mentioned above.

thanks for all the help, all. I will look maybe they are already there. but if not it should only take an hour to re do it. but maybe they are all there with 1.45 or with secret weapons. I remember when I first redid it and then went to reistall battle of britian it said I have the wrong verson...1.45

Maybe I had coral sea and aberdeen all along, but just though i didn;t becauce I couldn't down load BoB, with 1.45.

Again thanks for your help.....i'll be killing the enemy again in no time.


on a side note, this forum is really good....I post a problem and not even 4 mins goes by and I have 5 replys.......good job everyone.

YEs, this forum is nice:-) And if u have Secret weapons u shouldn´t really need to bother. I think u can do BF1942>RtR>Secret weapons and it will be all there. I really think so, but I am not 100%.

I just checked my levels folder, and all maps are in there. Thats with the 1.45 full install patch. But im sure the incremental will contain them as well.
