What's the difference between the normal installer and the Vista installer?

Natch · Post by **Natch** » Mon Nov 12, 2007 11:28 am

I'd imagine the Vista one is designed to NOT make it complain.

Vista Installer is for Vista Users, while the other for user with other Windows versions.

Actually the only difference is that they have a different default install path (the vista one should install to your user folder, which is not write protected), but I recently found out that the vista one works fine on XP so I'll probably merge both into one for the next version onward.

New Version Released
Get it here: http://www.wyrdysm.com/bfdownload.php

Once again, I bring you gifts of binary 1s and 0s. This new version works out a few bugs in the previous one and implements a few improvements.

The most prominent new feature is the ability to resize the Sandbox to any size you want. Be warned though, it can adversely affect performance. If the special effects become too pixelated in the sandbox, try running the game with Surfaces off.

Full changelog available here: http://www.wyrdysm.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1#1

Note: The Vista installer is no more because the normal installer is now identical to the Vista installer so there was no need for a separate file any more.

In the Skirmish menu I see the numbers, but how do I change them?

This is so goddamn awesome =D The onlt the thing I could possibly want now are more sections and weapons. Other then that is perfect

Dear god, this is awesome... increased map size... *drool* I'm running the map at double the standard size, and there's no considerable difference between this and the standard resolution map, performance-wise, which is excellent.

Right click on the "Skirmish" button.

The mirror for your zip seems to be broken:
http://www.victorygames.info/bf/battles ... verv82.zip gives a 404 error

Surfacing seems to be functioning well at 4096x4096, albeit with slight pixellation of repeater shots and railgun beams.
