    Problems with Euro Force, Special Forces, and Patches. Need help.

    Sorry to be of trouble, but I know this is a much better place to ask for help then EA...

    I decided to use the EA downloader to purchase Euro Force and Special Forces today and everything downloaded perfectly (shocker, as this is EA we're talking about) Once it finished downloading, I installed Special Force and i noticed that it patched back to 1.1 and I was at 1.21 I figured this was okay and i would just patch back up again. I decided to try it out, went in to BFHQ and could have sworn to be expecting a few new weapons unlocks as I have more then half of the vanilla version unlocked... Nothing.

    All the maps were green/white so I decided to hop on a server, tried three and got the message "I have changed my files, cant connect, blah blah blah"

    Okay, I didn't feel like dealing with that right now, So i installed Euro Force and everything went fine... Got in and NO EURO FORCE MAPS SHOW UP... No weapons, no armys, no nothing...

    Then I see somewhere "Oh, I need to patch to 1.21 before installing euro force" Well Maybe that should be in a bigger print or it shouldn't allow you to install??"

    Currently I am downloading patch 1.21 again but I wanted to know how in the world I uninstall euro force as I obviously did something wrong... In the EA downloader I have no option to uninstall or reinstall, only "Play now!" with no option in Add/Remove programs, the BF2 community tab for other game mods, or even the start menu.

    I don't want to patch and make (MORE) problems so If anyone could simply tell me what to do, much appreciation. =)

    All you should have to do is to install v1.21.

    Euro Force doesn't alter any game files. It simply installs new maps and integrates with vanilla BF2.

    So...you do not need to uninstall Euro Force.

    In order for you to receive new unlocks you have to register 1 point on a ranked Special Forces server.
