Last Month the Japanese try to retrive this mod a little bit more. They played in the at 2pm CET. At the moment the gametracker,com Server Monitorring is off. Hope soon they turn it on. The ranking seems to work.
yeah the installer points to the default directory for the game, if you are "advanced enough" to put 1942 in a custom spot, you should be "advanced enough" to point the installer in the right direction too
BUT!! the installer can also use the registry to find it automatically, i just didnt have the time to look for the right key, will do this on the next update.

I got an idea: for the guys who already played is82 for a few years: an is82 tag in front of their names might be handy. If new players have troubles, they know who to ask to help them out.
So I guess we first gotta ask the admins permission. If you want a tag and you are permitted to use one, you ehmm.. can use one... lol

Yes, you need 1.81. Did you first uninstall the original Battlefield 1942 game before installing the Free version of Battlefield 1942? Because if you did not, it is not going to work.
Battlefield 1942 serials/cd keys are stored in the registry and it could be the problem that your client of Battlefield 1942 is still using your retail cd key. That way it will not detect your game as a free to play version and it will not show you nor allow you to connect to free to play servers.
