Dear Community!

Battlefield 1942 has been around for 20 years now.
And in these 2 decades the game has seen many custom mods and maps.

We all know the annoying message: "MAP NOT FOUND"

I (Arkyliën / henk) would love to create an update for BF1942 that will let BF1942 download the map/mod automatically.

I already have a database of 1000+ bf1942 maps and all popular mods.
I also have the knowledge to make this update.

BUT I sadly don’t have the time.
Since I'm so passionate to make this update for the community I see only one solution:
Are you willing to support me financially?
I expect to need 1000 euros for a very basic version (v1.0)
More info can be found here:

(Github has my preference for donating, I mainly use Patreon to post my progress)

This engine is almost perfect.

I like all refractor 2 games.

The only things I dont like so much is the strange physics in bf2 and the kit weapon system (if anyone know how to change this to a half life or codename eagle similar weapons system, tell me please)

The only thing wrong in BF2 is physics during motion. ie causing fixed carrier
