Have you done all the patching required for compatibility with modern systems?

Someone else can give you the list of patches and such to do that, I do not know myself.

[Tom]

no.... i havent ;/ do i need the 1.4 patch and then do the vista compatabilty tutorial?

[Mr. Spock]

Tom, visit www.battlezone1.net. I'm sure you will find needed files and info there.

Not sure what the installer has that the CD + patches don't.
Tried installing via CD, 1.4 patch, removing anims folder, compatibility mode/no compatibility.  This would run but frequently crash at random.

Installer went in, and smooth just like I remember it.  Only issue is window resizes itself after beating a mission, but when the new mission launches, the windows corrects itself.

add 1 vote to the installer.

Out of curiosity, does BZE run on your PC without crashing? I know it has various fixes as well as its additional addons, but it is currently MP only and thus only a good quick test. (Unless they released the version that has SP).

There is a full installer out there, several IIRC, but they are legal gray areas and for that reason cannot be directly linked here. They might have the fixes.

Perhaps someone with more knowledge should list the needed patches and changes in this topic?

BZE menus seem stable, but not many people on right now to test with, + I was a novice at best against online players + I've got 8 years of rust on me.

This is of course if you were talking to me and not the Original poster

I was just saying trying to install from the CD, even with patches, folder deletions, and the winents2.dll or however its spelled, it never seemed to run stable in SP.  The installer posted though, does.
