Battlegroup42 Mod for Battlefield 1942

BG42: THE HISTORICAL ACCURACY AND TEAMPLAY MOD FOR BF1942

please visit our website www.battlegroup42.de

Hardware Requirements/Performance Tips:

• We strongly recommend at least 2048MB RAM and a video card with at least 256MB RAM and a CPU with at least 2 GHz

• Do not try to play online with a connection speed lower than DSL/Cable.

• Close ALL unneeded background applications which are using bandwith and/or memory, like file-sharing programs,
  file managers, e-mail programs, browsers etc. Make as much RAM available as possible.

• Check your ingame graphics settings. Reduce the screen resolution if necessary.

• defrag your complete hard disk at least once a month.

• Battlegroup42 only runs with 44kHz setting, 11 and 22 kHz are no longer supported, mainly for reasons of mod size
  and the fact that modern onboard sound chips can handle 44kHz without problems.

• Hint: If you own a sound card which has 64 hardware accelerated channels (like the Audigy 2 for example) you can use
  the following trick to play with 64 channels (which increases the amount of sounds played at once by a factor of 2 !):

-> Open the file "Default.con" with a text editor. It can be found in "Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\Settings\
Make a copy of the file BEFORE changing anything !

-> change the line "Sound.setHardwareVoiceLimit 32" to "Sound.setHardwareVoiceLimit 64"

-> save the file

-> active hardware acceleration in the Sound menu of Battlefield 1942

-> play with 64 hardware accelerated sound channels :-)
