There you will find it very easy to get back into the zone and play the same game that many found so amazingly innovative back in 1998 as well as the 1.5 patch for the game that Ken Miller is working on. There's even a comprehensive tech support section on the forum, should you run into any trouble getting things up and running.

J/k,
Very nice post. You Almost make me want to start playing BZ1 online again. In fact, If a certian individual would stay out of my way, I might consider it.
Re: Main Battlezone 1 Community
I tried to look at the 1.5 but it says, "You do not have the required permissions to read topics within this forum." why can't i see this forum?

You have to register on the forum so that Mr Spock can ban you if you refuse to do anything he says.
Re: Main Battlezone 1 Community
you can get the 1.5 patch here

There is no official Battlezone 1 website. There are a handful of sites people go to to get the files they need or to socialize.
Battlezone Club is one of these and also includes a few modifications to try out.
You can pull people's hair or date their sister -- we really don't care

Nuff said
Edit: NO! Not nuff said! I had to revisit that board. You people! So insane it make me LOL! My neighbor down the hall Jeff, the one who cusses everyone out and gets drunk on a nightly basis (puking on everything) is more fun to be around than you guys! I go to Tribes forums less slanted than your little corner of the internet, and if you know anything about Tribes (which you don't) the community for that game is the most vile, hate-spewing collection of drunk adults you could find in gaming!
It's almost like looking through 4chan, which I don't even need to do to get an impression. Dance slaves Dance! Do as I command! Bz dummies, shame shame; I don't even play BZ1 anymore since it's not worth it. The bz2 community loves to spit fire too but at least getting a game going with them isn't pulling teeth.

Re: Main Battlezone 1 Community
Honestly, it's not hard. Just make an account and you can see the 1.5 patch section. Asking here won't get you an answer, but if you ask Spock nicely in a private message or something, maybe he can explain it why he closed off that section to those who are not logged in. If you're serious about helping to test 1.5 and want to view the bug reports and stuff, making an account isn't exactly a huge obstacle. In any case, have fun.Apollo wrote:I tried to look at the 1.5 but it says, "You do not have the required permissions to read topics within this forum." why can't i see this forum?
Re: Main Battlezone 1 Community
Or, since you're here already, you can just download the patch here.

Re: Main Battlezone 1 Community
Yeah. Just make sure to copy your Battlezone 1.4 installation, drop in the new executable, and get the required common files. The common files are not compatible with 1.4, so 1.5 needs to be separate. Or you could just use the 1.5b installer, which contains the stock game + new .exe + common files. It makes things easier for the less technically inclined. Your choice.
Re: Main Battlezone 1 Community
When using BZ1.net's installers, be aware that you will only see one (their own) server. One of the files must be swapped out in order to get the other ones back.
EDIT: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=28 - 1.5 Common Files list, contains the updated servers.dat.

actually, I believe it's a custom installer, and it'll cause MVM, so it doesn't need the servers.dat, as they won't be able to play anywhere else.AHadley wrote:When using BZ1.net's installers, be aware that you will only see one (their own) server.
