I tried joining the map and got an error with the BF42 programming actually being shutdown. I've been kicked to desktop before on other maps, but nothing like this. Anyone else have an issue with this map?

Thought you might have a map location issue, so I checked my setup.
The map appears in three directories. Is that normal?

C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf19421\Archives\Bf1942\Levels
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\XPack1\Archives\Bf1942\Levels
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\XPack2\Archives\Bf1942\Levels

Yep.

Unless you get the right maps in the right directories it kicks you out on map load. Please hold caller while I look up which one should be where ............... (sound of some annoying piece of christmas music whilst I search my files)

OK caller, so the maps should be in the directories as follows (there is a fourth map Toujane_Tunisia_002.rfa, but this is a FH mod which we don't play)

C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\Archives\Bf1942\Levels\Toujane_Tunisia.rfa
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\XPack1\Archives\Bf1942\Levels\Toujane_Tunisia_000.rfa
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\XPack2\Archives\Bf1942\Levels\Toujane_Tunisia_001.rfa

Hope this sorts you out Kelly

ps Thanks for listing all those directories out in the reply made my job easier not having to type them all in

So should each file be in the levels directory with each other or should each file be in a separate subdirectory contained in Levels? All three of the files are there in the levels directory

Each file needs to be in it's own level.
The file Toujane_Tunisia should only be in the bf1942 levels directory
The file Toujane_Tunisia_000.rfa should only be in the levels directory of xpack1
The file Toujane_Tunisia_001.rfa should only be in the levels directory of xpack2

Thanks gavI had same prob..
but sorted out now

again cheers
