Another patch has just been released to tie in with the shipping of Battlefield 2's first expansion pack, Special Forces. Released in North America today, the expansion should become available to us European's on Friday. The patch for both Battlefield 2 and the new expansion weighs in at a hefty 280 MB and has a number of bug fixes as seen below. The main focus of this patch though is to allow those with the expansion pack to play on vanilla Battlefield 2 servers.
- Fixed a crash when users switch weapons using the mouse wheel while piloting a bomber (SU-34, F-15 and J10) in core BF2 maps.
- Removed the Grappling Hook and the Zip Line from kits from "The Iron Gator" map.
- Fixed single player loading screens to match map selection image.
- Fixed an issue in the menus so that users can click on BF2:SF ribbons to view the descriptions.
- Fixed an issue in the Browser so that BF2:SF servers are now represented with a green "2" icon.
- Global improvement of collision detection on the Grappling Hook and the Zip Line.
- Fixed damage state artillery icon on the 3d map when an artillery is destroyed.

Something worth noting: "If you have installed the 1.12 patch to core Battlefield 2 and then installed Battlefield 2: Special Forces, you will need to re-apply the 1.12 patch again to be able to play on 1.12 Servers."
