Well... That was annoying. Mint 19.3 Package Manager wouldn't successfully install Wine 5.0. And I couldn't roll back to WINE 4.0 because it wasn't in the Package Manager anymore. So... started searching the web for ways to install WINE 5.0. I found stuff, all terminal based, tried it, and it...

As I thought, my lack of skill with software has done me in. I was planning to upgrade to PlayOnLinux 4.3.4 as recommended by Booman and I broke everything. The package manager said I had the 4.0.3 version of WINE and listed the 5.0.0 version as available. Knowing that you have to install WINE...

Hello Booman, I sent a message to the BF2Hub crew a while back via their contact system but so far no reply. That's why I posted here. I was hoping someone else had the same problem and had come up with a solution. In the contact form BF2Hub requires you list your O.S. but the selection options...

I'm running MINT 19.3 with the Mate desktop in an Intel i3 with an AMD R9 280 video card. I've got the default WINE kit for MINT 19.3 installed (wine-stable, wine-stable-AMD64, wine-stable-i386:i386. All version 4.0.3-bionic). And the default PlayOnLinux kit for MINT 19.3 (playonlinux 4.2.12-1)...

I was hoping that there was some setting or component that I was missing that when applied would fix things. But, there doesn't seem to be a quick fix. Your setup and mine are different so it looks like anything you try won't apply to my machine. I'll just have to keep experimenting. I do...

Using the Tab menu only has room to list 21 names for each team. But, if you look below the list you can see the "total number of players" for each team. Which will show that you have more "soldiers" than just the names listed. Just be careful when the combat gets busy. Since the game is...

Yes. The settings in the AIDefault.ai are the important ones to get more than 48 bots. The changes to the ServerSettings.con are extras to help with the stability of the game when it has more than 48 bots.

With the "aiSettings.overrideMenuSettings 1" in the AIdefault.ai file the sliders in the Multiplayer - Create Local don't override the file settings. The in-game settings are based on the values inside the AIDefault.ai and the SeverSettings.con files. The in-game sliders only "adjust" the...

The bots were limited to 32 because the settings of "Create Local" affect the running of the Singleplayer. To play by myself with just the client I click on the [MULTIPLAYER] button and select the "Create Local" function. First I set the "Co-op" option under the AVAILABLE MAPS then set the MAX...

I got the mod from the Hard Justice mod website several years ago. I originally ran everything under Windows XP (I don't dare hook my XP system to net these days). The HJ site went dark about 2011-2012. You can probably find HJ on some other sites but you have to get the 1.3 version. Several...

OOPS. Correction: Video driver is not what I listed. It's the AMD proprietary driver : fglrx-updates version 2:15.201-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 (Sorry about that).

I have an i3 system with an AMD R9 280 card. I am using Linux Mint 17 32-bit with the MATE desktop (I am using the 32-bit version of Linux Mint because I also run the Linux Dedicated Server kit for Battlefield 2 which is also 32-bit. It was easier to get the Dedicated Server running on a...

I didn't explain the server part very well. Yes, it is the Linux Dedicated Server (the kit is: bf2-linuxded-1.1.2965-797.0-installer.sh). With a few changes the Linux Dedicated Server can run large numbers of bots. But, the only way to have fun with large numbers of bots is to run mods because...

I get plain Battlefield 2 to work fine with PlayOnLinux. But, when I try to run a mod it only runs for a short while then crashes. Do mods need more options, tools, packages, or whatever installed to run properly? Or special options? I'm using Linuxmint 17 32-bit , POL ver 4.2.10 and WINE...
