No need, just install the full 1.3 patch and your problem will be solved.

To search the forums click on the tab above this thread, you would need to type something along the lines of "lightning.fx error"

Go to your BF2 directory (If you installed the game with the Default settings it is: C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2 )
Check if your folder called 'Shaders' is empy, if it is empty go to the folder called 'Shaders_Client' (Note: this is a .zip file) copy ALL the files to your folder 'Shaders', restart the game. Hope this works, it did for me :P

dude, TC boss, you're the MAN! Thanks for the help, everything works except I can't get into games now. Its really weird, says "no selected server" and when I retry i don't have the right version.

What is the most current patch out, for SF?
