Im on RC1. its compat for BF2 that i had to change, not PB. i thought it was a graphic driver corruption, but changed compat to vista, got the roads and floors back no probs.

Still no problems with Windows 7 and PB. Its all good

New error to investigate for the Windows 7 Enthusiasts:

Quote:

System Log: "Application BF2.exe locked the primary surface 3 time(s)."
Event ID : 245.

This is one which gives an occasional CTD in PR.

A workaround for this error, is to disable to Desktop Window Manager Session Manager.
For vista users that get occasional CTD's this might be useful as it was installed in Vista SP1 i believe.
I haven't tested this on Vista so as usual be my guest, as i won't use that piece of junk OS ever again

Shortcut correction confirmed working in windows 7.

Also. the default Target path is: (PR 0.860)

"C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe" (It is in my windows 7 anyway).

Changing it to:-

"C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe" +modPath mods/pr +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1680 +szy 1050

solves the problem of CTD when loading maps. in Win 7 at least.

I didn´t have to add that to solve any CTDs on RC 64 bit with the patch. What kind of CTDs are the ones you mean?

It seems as though its working now PB with Win 7

My RC 64 Bit works fine all of a sudden with no changes at all ???
