| Hello everyone! I have downloaded and reinstalled FH and FHSW numerous times, and it just does not want to work. For both mods, the map loading screens are grey and the loading goes on forever. This is the same for online servers as well. I've tried different download sites, reinstalling BF1942 and everything, yet it still does not want to work. I've never had this problem before, and it can't be just missing files... Is there any solution to this?

I'm sure I downloaded the newest version. I mean, there's no way that ALL of the download links have corrupted files.  This is ridiculous.

| Is it for vanilla BF1942 as well, or just FH and FHSW? And what is your operating system?

Vanilla BF1942 has no problem what so ever. I use Win 7 64 bit, but I never had a problem running FH/FHSW on a Win 7 64 bit system before...

| Hmm map loading screens are saved in the map. If Vanilla works can you please try to load a Vanilla map in FH (like El Alamein) and see if that works. If not what's the file size of the map you're trying to load? Maybe also do a MD5 check or upload it so I can check it for myself.

I'm not exactly sure of what you mean by an MD5 check. But by looking at the level archives, the size of Alpenfestung is 44,729 KB, Adak island is 24,926, and El Alamein is about 174 KB. How would I be able to upload successfully for you to check?

| But it shows the Vanilla loading screen for El Alamein right? Another thing: Are all files in the correct folder, for example the location of El Alamein (FH) is ..\Battlefield 1942\Mods\FH\Archives\bf1942\levels\?

Just upload the map file (El_Alamein.rfa) to your prefered file host https://www.sendspace.com/

Vanilla as in the BF1942 loading screen? No, it's the FH version of the loading screen if that's what you mean. Yes, all of the maps are in the correct folder.
Here's El Alamein:

And here's Alpenfestung:

| Okay so it's not the maps they work for me. I made a mistake, not all loading screens are saved in the map most of them are in the menu.rfa. Here's mine maybe it fixes it: https://www.sendspace.com/file/par5zi
Unzip it and replace yours which you find in ..\Battlefield 1942\Mods\FH\Archives\
btw. do you use any compatibility mode?

Hmm, it didn't seem to do anything. Today, I installed another copy of FH and FHSW on to my external HD, and it still has the grey loading screen for some maps. However, it does load and play. I wonder if it has to do something with my C drive...?
No, I don't use any sort of compatibility mode, though I always run as administrator.

| *Bump*
Does anyone know any clear reason for the seemingly missing files? It ain't the end of the world, but I'm real curious as to why the loading screens are missing, and why the maps only load when I play the mods from my external hard drive.

| Hmm that doesn't make any sense to me. The loading screens are saved in menu.rfa and you used mine so it can't be missing or corrupted files.
Do you have access to a second PC and try to install it there?
wewak already asked this but are you 100% sure you're using the latest version of BF1942 (v1.61b)?

Unfortunately, I have no access to a second PC. It says that I'm using 1.61 on the menu of my BF1942, so there should be no problems there. There should be no reason as to why this stuff is even happening.

| pacman try this modificaion bf1942.exe and orverwrite the old one:
Download it
And if your BF 1942 didnt works, follow this steps! (Download and install):
click this Link
After then BF 1942 and FHSW has been run fine.
Actually the FHSW-Europe Server is down.
Check you have the Mappack 6 Downloaded and install?

| Hmm, nothing seems to work. I have everything that should be required installed... Honestly, it's a dead end by now.
