Muikkie Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 (edited) I will explain you what to do to play NOLF2 on-line. Follow the steps and you can play this GREAT game on-line: Step 1: Go to LINK outdated and click DOWNLOAD-section (click "I agree") and click 'No one lives forever-topic' Step 2: Download "No One Lives Forever 2 1.3 English Patch" and install it on your PC Step 3: Download : "NOLF2 Mappack Installer" and install it on your PC Step 4: Download 'LivesForever-mod' Step 5: Download 'Join by IP Tool' Step 6: a. Install the LivesForever mod. ---- a. Create a folder C:\Program Files\Fox\No One Lives Forever 2\Custom\Mods\LivesForever (Spelling is important so name it exactly like this LivesForever ) ---- b. Put the contents of LivesForever RAR file into that folder. ---- c. Yes, you really do have to make that folder. b. Start NOLF2 like you used to, and select the new mod. ---- a. Instead of the "Play" button, hit "custom," which is right below it. ---- b. Check the box next to the "LivesForever" Mod. ---- c. Start the game. ---- d. Close the game. Now the you have selected the mod, it will stay selected until you restart the game and deliberately unselect it. 3. Start the JoinByIP Tool. ---- A. Choose the tab for DM or DD. ---- B. Double-click the server you want to join (Example the SFI DM server 70.86.157.250:27888 ) *Thanks Kepler for the Basis of these instructions* I hope this post was helpfull for you <img src="http://sficlan.net/Unityhq/forums//forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Have FUN playing NOLF2 <img src="http://sficlan.net/Unityhq/forums//forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="cool.gif" /> -------------------- Edited January 13, 2011 by Eliteone Downloads link out of date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noah64 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I don't know much about Nolf2 mods, but do you think it would be possible to somehow combine the Join by IP file into a mod, so the servers would show up inside the game with a single mod?

SAssER Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 As far as I know URA is working on something like that. ( http://sficlan.net/Unityhq/forums/forums/i...ost&p=92726 ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliteone Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hey, Yes i exactly did, i controlled it 5 times, but it always kick me out of the game... How many custom maps do you have? Look in the C:\Program Files\Fox\No One Lives Forever 2\Custom\Resources folder. If you have alot then I'd suggest pulling them out one at a time to see if one of them are causing the issue.

PC of my kids still have the same problem They also have Vista SP1 and there is only 1 mappack.rez in custom resources-folder. They can't join via join-by-ip; it says: invalid CD-key I hope that there will be a solution in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{IF} Crusader Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hey, Yes Linda i have exactly the same problem, but it didn't work on Vista SP1 or on XP SP3..... =( In my Custom\Resources folder i have some REZ files, as you see on the screeny!

Belladonna Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I had the Invalid CD Key message and it turned out I had to remove everything in the Resources folder except for the main big mappacks. No individual maps at all. Doesn't make sense to me, but that's how it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't join via join-by-ip; it says: invalid CD-key I hope that there will be a solution in the future You installed the LiveForever mod? Also I'd recommend having only the UHQ mappack in the resources folder as that seems to work for some who have had this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliteone Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 My kids have this .rez: mappack_210308.rez Is that okay E1 or should it be changed? That is the UHQ mappack so it should be fine. Are there any other maps in the folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok Deleted all other mods. When I look at custom box I still see exp-fix but it aint in my modsfolder anymore Could there be a problem coz of that? The LivesForever-mod is checked allready. When I start up NOLF I can see at the screen that the mod is activated. But when I run join-by-ip it won't work; Error: Invalid CD-key Edited March 6, 2009 by =NS= Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another way you could "force the mod" would be to add it too your NOLF2 desktop shortcut's properties. add this -mod LivesForever after the nolf2.exe line in the shortcut.

Another way you could "force the mod" would be to add it too your NOLF2 desktop shortcut's properties. add this -mod LivesForever after the nolf2.exe line in the shortcut. The rez in the folder is LivesForever.rez ; So that should be ok This is the desktop shortcut properties: "C:\Program Files\Fox\No One Lives Forever 2\NOLF2.exe" Should I make it like this: "C:\Program Files\Fox\No One Lives Forever 2\NOLF2.exe-mod LivesForever" ? It can't be changed like this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliteone Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Make it like this "C:\Program Files\Fox\No One Lives Forever 2\NOLF2.exe" -mod LivesForever That will force the mod to load when you click the shortcut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=NS= Linda Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 (edited) Make it like this "C:\Program Files\Fox\No One Lives Forever 2\NOLF2.exe" -mod LivesForever That will force the mod to load when you click the shortcut. That doesnt work either It still loads retail when I use join-by-ip When I start-up NOLF2 itself it does load the LivesForever-mod. It's a weird situation he?
