one of the basic requirements for this is starting/restarting servers to test own mods ive done a lot of bf42 modding in the past. I didnt "install" a server, i just ran bfsm.exe from within the bf1942 install, takes 5 secs to do.
i deliberately used portable for experimental purposes, just like i have experimented with a lot of other stuff, related to hardware, windows, bf1942 etc.

I can install bf1942 properly, quickly, with a static keyhash, if i want to. You said some time ago, you change your keys, that you can faster reconnect after a crash. Excuse to use a portable version? You know exactly, that you played always with different keys. the Game you can't install, but the Server you install. im pretty sure theres no keyhash in my windows registry, and i therefore wont have a keyhash when connected to simpleįunny. moments ago, i tried to read the keyhash, using some tool. The right way to make it portable, would be to read the CD-key and game language value from a text file, but that involves some larger changes in executable.Īnd i use that patched bf1942.exe from simples download page in this new portable bf1942 of mine.
Mind that, this BF1942 portable executable is just a hack, because it won't exit the game, if it cannot read the registry or there is no BF1942 information in the registry, and your CD-key assigned will be whatever there is in that memory address reserved, most probably the empty string. However, it may crash the game in Wiindows Vista and above, because you probably have no administrator rights. With this executable inside, you copy your BF1942 folder and can play it in any computer, from a USB drive, for example. Now, it works also with Road to Rome and Secret Weapons.
