Hi,

[changed] Here is information about getting Forgotten Enemies and Battlezone II v1.3 update working together. I've played these versions for about 10 hours without a single crash:

Too bad FE 1.3 is sorely broke. Anyway, we have all the info here, so we already know there's a version that exists.

I haven't had any problems with FE 1.3 and BZ2 update v1.3.6.2. BZ2 update v1.3.6.3 however is borken in more ways than I can describe. I just wanted to put the compatible versions on one page to make it easy to find and download.

Compare it with the 1.2 version and you'll see where the problems are. The 1.3 version is a mess of half-implemented features, broken fixes and ill-thought-through modifications.

That link better not contain a BZ2 install.

And, in my book, RD gets credit for releasing something. Not just sitting back and criticizing. I don't see others stepping up to do work.

You dont happen to be a true regular at some other BZ2 forum, are you?
That statement is exactly the same as a particular other individual would have made it.

And please if you are going to pirate stuff at least have the decency to supply the real thing, The Original Bz2. distributing a pre-patched version is extremely unhelpful to everyone, not surprising that you think its broken...it probably is.

Oh, we're doing it.

I played 1.2 up to the map with the constant earthquakes. Then I couldn't load and save every time I was wiped out, the savegames were too big.
1.3 seems harder but I'm still enjoying it a lot. I can't say I've noticed any major differences so far, but I'm only up to map 5.

I'm not a true regular at some other BZ2 forum, but I think I read it and re-used it

Funny thing is a lot of the criticism comes form ppl who have released things.
