EA 117 Gaming Community

Wall hacking at Edge under ammo crate at Slums flag.

I seem to fix my crashes when I updated to the gamespy fixed bf1942.exe. I now nolonger have to run the Battlefield 1942 FaultTolerantHeap shim.sdb every day.

I did a traceroute of Moongamers. My ping there is the same (+/- 2 or 3). It did not show me going through gtt-gw.ip4.tinet.net [173.241.130.138].

8.12.64.130 is EA117.... Like I said Moongamers and =SoC= Chaos Phillies are quite fine. HKHP El Alamein (CD/ORIGIN) and Kaskingo - El Al - DC (Stats) *AKA DC bot server* are fine as well. It is something specific that happens to EA117. I don't know if it is an Admin logging in by remote? After all ...

Fark!

The 2 IPs above gtt-gw.ip4.tinet.net [173.241.130.138] according to ip-adress.com are in France! WTF....

Makes no since. When I first joined I was fine.

Also from what I can find is that the router causing the high ping is in Chicago, Illinois. This seem quite far to go since EA117 is in Kansas from what I can find. Hopefully other will do a tracert.

I'm on the west coast. It did go back norm about 8:12PM west coast time. About 4 or 5 players other players had there pings drop as well. ))AhDaHua(( was one of the players effected. His ping dropped fron 150-153 down to 50-53. Also of note. The drop of ping is not instantly. It takes about 1 or 2 m...

PC is Win 7. High ping is happening with old EA and new patched .exe. I get the same 175 to 180 high ping from EA117 by Command Prompt using Ping 8.12.64.130. So I know the exe has nothing to do with it. I also get the same thing if I ping from another computer in the house via Command Prompt ping. ...

Ever since the new master server fix has gone live I've had problems with my ping. It starts at my norm 78 to 83 but soon climbs to 180 an will hold there for 15 to 30 min. This high ping makes any infantry map unplayable. I have tired router/modem/computer restarts. They have no efffect. EA117 is t...

Still hasn't learned.... Saturday he was camping US base on Gazla with Mig 29. I found him over base as I was going to re-load some misslies so I tried to down him with the 20mm but he still went after the runway after I started shooting at him. I don't know if I, Stinger from ground or death bubble...

I wasn't there for what Yul Brynner is posting about but I have seen <HDD> Nick Fury TW other players. He also has bad habit of hijacking vehicles that are being used for defence like Humvees.

No because my know exploit is not see by any one but the person using it. Nightstalker PMed me and I told him how it works.

bRiNK:
Video taken on you end isn't vary helpfull. I know that there is one thing the can be exploted about the game that PB don't catch. It was talked about and shown on the old Desert Combat forms years ago.

Raptor22:
Fixed.

Sound like the same error I had on Win7 before the Tank's PB Update fix.

I'm making this post for player IrishLincon as he felt that signing up wouldn't be worth it as he belived that the matter would not be looked into but since I already have signed up I told him I would for him. IrishLincon is unhapply with DABR ability to kill with the Saiga 12 at extreme rage. Killi...

Seen this too.

I never had a crash prob tell about the time Win 7 SP1 came out. The more mods the game has to load the crash become more likey.

Yes I did use quotes around the name but it gave an error.

Yes every day I get the "An installed file with the same ID was found. Replace it? (Yes/No)" option. I replace it and things work fine. If I don't run it again I'm back to crashes.

I tried the fix. I ran in to a prob right away. The files name was too long. *In the attachment it is "Battlefield 1942 FaultTolerantHeap shim.sdb" so I cut it down to "BF1942_shim.sdb"* Next it seems I have to run the file every day. I guess not everything the shim.sdb dose is n...

Glad to see that there may be a chance to save old BF1942.
