I remember complaints from both Mano and Woody about the damn load screens every time you want to play the game. So I decided to Bink up all 4 dummy files to replace BF1942’s files. I never had a problem with the intros, but since I play the game a lot now, it is just stupid to watch the movies all the time. My files are 4 two-frame \*.bik’s with just the Battlefield 1942 logo on a black background… _fast_, pleasant, and nice looking.

I know we have some new recruits (Midknight and, soon, Emrys) so you guys should fetch these files, too.

Well then, you’re welcome :lcc_smile:.

**INSTALL NOTES:**

- Archive Contents: _EA.bik, Dice.bik, Intro.bik, Legal.bik._

- Unzip all 4 \*.bik files into **“\Battlefield 1942\Movies”**

- Prior to that, if you want, backup the real files in case  
you want them back (you won’t ever need them though).

OK, well there are a couple of more annoyances with BF1942… the most minor of minor annoyances, I say. However, I just took the incentive to fix them and distribute them publicly! Or just to the fellow LCC BF-Elite :lcc_wink:.

This is my BF1942 Multi-Fix, just download and enjoy.

\*_READ THE ‘README-CONTENTS’ & ‘README-MUSIC’ .txt FILES!!!11_

Now, for those who read the readme.txt files… you’ll know what this is for. This is a replacement for Battlefield 1942’s Load Screen Music. In the ‘README-MUSIC.txt’, I wrote out how to replace the menu’s music so you should have a clear understanding of how to insert this file.

If you don’t know how to plop this music file in, just refer to ‘README-MUSIC.txt’ in the archive… here’s just a summary:

_Replace ‘Vehicle4.bik’ in \*\*\mods\bf1942\music\*_, \*_\mods\XPack1\music\*_ & \*\*\mods\XPack2\music\*_._

By the way, this file comes from CS: Condition Zero. I do **NOT** play Counter-Strike, I just have a ‘pirated’ copy laying around and its so easy to rip off their sounds. That’s about all CS is good for :lcc_smile:.

That’s it, enjoy. You’re welcome :lcc_dog:.
