how to patch Battlefield 2142

Yeah. The link I posted showed an exe as well. Like you said, if the file is corrupt it'll give errors. Maybe that's what the OP is experiencing?

Perhaps another download would help. I know it's a 500MB file, but.....

Well then I would suggest you find the patch somewhere else.

BTW can you post an image of the patch and post it?

And Zepher is right about a partially downloaded patch being problematic.

@ Zepher, is that an exe patch?

Thanks.

Okay, I dont know what the hell, but when I read this post I downloaded it again to get a screen shot and it came up as an executable. When sygnus gave that link for the full patch it gave me the same thing as last time, but I used my google chrome instead of IE to download it this time and it worked. I wonder why that is.

Try installing Gamespy comrade and update it through comrade, it worked for me.

Why is he installing that? And what is it?

A bit of information would be helpful.

Thanks

Well it seems it was a corrupt download. Why IE gave you a corrupt patch but chrome didn't is anybody's guess. It could have been a security setting.

Anyway glad to hear you got is sorted and fixed. Enjoy.
