shortcuts to Special Forces and PoE

[1Mac]

Hi, I had to reload windows to system and have loast the desktop shortcuts to pPecial Forces and PoE. I have looked in the BF2 installation folder and BF2\mods\, but can't find the exe. for these X-packs. Anybody know where they're located or am I going to have to re-install everything?

You can try making new short cuts using your directory structure.

Target:
"C:\xxxxx\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/xpack +ignoreAsserts 1

Start in:
"C:\xxx\Battlefield 2"

Target POE:
"C:\xxx\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/poe2 +ignoreAsserts 1

Ahoy

My Special Forces desktop shortcut is:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/xpack +ignoreAsserts 1

And for POE, it's:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\poe2\poe2.bat"

If nothing else, you should be able to right-click on your desktop, go new->shortcut and enter in the above info for each in the "location of item" field. This, of course, would only work if you follow the same (default) install paths

Good luck!

Although the bat file shortcut works for Poe2, it opens a command promt before it does anything and the Special forces one is just gone!. I'm gonna just re-install instead of trying to figure it all out. Thanx.
