from Battlefield 2 Demo\mods\bf2\Movies



Unlock all weapons (singleplayer only)

Code: Select all

*works in single player and lan games, will work online *IF* the server hosting *AND* all the clients have the same hacked python file.

navigate to:
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2 Demo\python\bf2\stats

Open the file unlocks.py with notepad

find the line:


defaultUnlocks = [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]

change to:


defaultUnlocks = [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]
All of these found around the interweb or worked out :D

Cocking game doesnt accept a Geforce 4 as a graphic card, thus elimates me from ever being able to buy it.. *Scowl*

Great find, I'm definatly getting rid of those pissing videos.

I've also seen servers with a 64 player limit.. Thought the demo was only supposed to be 16 maxium.

nope, the single player demo is 16.

multi is 64

How do you unlock the weapons on multiplayer? If its via ranks then thats a bit crap or is just due to this being a demo?

i think in multiplayer you unlock over time/skill (but not in the demo) and the hack only seems to work with singleplayer :(

Will you be using the no time limit thing on the BF2 server you have running? I'd certainly like that ^_^

What type of GF4? I have a couple of different ones, some being inferior to my GF3.

From the minimum reqs.

128 MB video card supporting 1.4 shaders (ATI Radeon 8500 / NVIDIA FX 5700 or above)

you ~!~ ATI bummer :lol:

I love my 6800 thankyou very much (allthough I have just realised dual monitors are pretty shit whilst in game) :wink:

ok, explain this;

The FX 5200, 5600 and 5800 were announced april 2003.

The Radeon 9700 was announced july 2002.


My Radeon 9700 pro still tears the balls off of an FX5600* (usually twice as fast in THG tests)

Any questions?

*I chose the 5600 since it's the card in question, and nv fanboys agree the 5200 sucked.

The answer is quite simple.

Personal preference :lol:
