Title: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: Assmitten on 2008 May 08, 17:44:46 Anyone done this with an image of the game? I am just now dl'ing BV, and have all other EPs. Will the game screens look like BV now, or still FT as that is the newest version?
Mostly I am lazy and do not want to reinstall my recent stuffs packs and FT. Thanks! Title: Re: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: miramis on 2008 May 08, 17:51:42 I install in order out of habit, but I don't think the install order matters anymore, Assmitten. TS1 used to be funny about it but with TS2 the latest EP takes over.
Title: Re: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: powercut on 2008 May 08, 18:07:38 Yup, it's the latest EP that matters. I've done this exact same thing (installing BV after FT, both of them Arrr'd) and had no problems at all. The NoCD crack that (I assume) you used for FT should work just as fine after you've installed BV.
PS: I reckon my (whole) 4 posts don't give me a lot of credibility, but I really would have noticed if my game had exploded. Title: Re: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: Assmitten on 2008 May 08, 18:09:41 Thanks, youse. Powercat, that is the specific infos I was looking for.

Title: Re: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: jolrei on 2008 May 08, 19:39:19 So, change your username to powercat and have done with it. ;D
Anyhow, it's not how many posts you have, but how you use them. Title: Re: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: Assmitten on 2008 May 08, 20:35:56 Fact: this forum is mad about cats.

(http://icanhascheezburger.wordpress.com/files/2007/09/128340259094218750disisembarasin.jpg) It's okay, though, because Powercute still loves me. :D Title: Re: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: powercut on 2008 May 08, 21:25:09 Well, as long as there are kittens in your username. I do have standards, you know.
*feels bad about spamming teh seriuos forums*: So have you installed it yet? I need to know this so I can make my escape from the thread should something bad happen. Title: Re: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: Assmitten on 2008 May 08, 21:31:03 Okay, well, it gets dumber. Long story long, Pescado gave me the FT patch, and then my game didn't work, so I am back to the drawing board with FT. HA HA HA weep. So I think I will install BV "first."
*Assmitten absolves powercut of any BFBVFSes Title: Re: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: powercut on 2008 May 08, 23:04:45 Eh, sorry if I'm saying something which is already obvious, but do you have the appropriate crack? There is one for plain old FT and a different one for the patched FT. They can both be found on gamecopyworld.com (the patched one is version 1.1). I haven't personally tried patching the game and using this, so you should take it with a pinch of salt, coming from me.
But it seems that installing BV is a separate issue altogether and whether the game works or not depends solely on the latest thing that you should have installed going by the EA timeline. *tiptoes out of thread just in case* Title: Re: Advice on Installing BV after FT Post by: Annerinas on 2008 May 09, 00:34:41 I've done the BV after FT thing. And nothing's exploded yet.
BV I Arr'd. FT is patched, but securom is beat back with the new patched version of nocd crack. Still get the FT slash screen when I load the game, annoying music and all. |
