(Released mods have a light grey backround.)īattlefield 1918 - Version: Release 1 (1.6)īattlefield Grand Prix Version: 2.3, No update since Dec. Incomplete list of released mods ( as of 2004) that have a larger amount of content and changes. (Lists may be not entirely complete and not up to date) Contents (See Comparisons of Battlefield 1942 mods) New releases will usually garner new players to a mods 'standard player base' enabling it to survive. A new version release can skyrocket a newly released mod in popularity, as many players try out the new content, only to plummet just as quickly to a smaller player base. For example, the release of Battlefield Vietnam greatly reduced players of the Eve of Destruction mod as the total number of active players of all mods. (See also: List of Battlefield Vietnam mods)Ī mods popularity rise and fall with releases of both other mods, and other games. Some mods have moved/switched to the computer games Soldner, Half-Life 2 or others for the same reasons. Also, many unreleased mods that started as a BF1942 mod, switch to BFV to cover up their slow development, to take advantage of the more advanved engines or in hopes that problems encountered with BF1942 will be solved by a different game engine. Battlefield Vietnam uses an updated version of the Refractor 2 game engine. With the release of the BF1942 sequel Battlefield Vietnam, some mods have either made a new version or have continued development with that game. Early modifications of BF1942 are impressive in that there was no SDK, but recently a 'Mod Development Kit' has been produced ( ). Some are very limited and just include some gameplay changes or even a different loading screen while others are total conversions that modify content and gameplay extensively.Ī few mods have become popular and are nearly games in their own right. Most do not progress very far and are abandoned without ever producing a public release. Like Half-Life and some other popular FPS games, Battlefield 1942 has spawned a tremendous number of mods. This is a list of mods for the first-person shooter computer game Battlefield 1942.
