I know it’s a bit of an old game….but it’s still a goody, I was bored so thought I would play through this game during my lunch hour.
Completed the game then went to have a quick go online, but found I had to upgrade to version 1.1. Downloaded the UK/US patch, tried to install it, but it comes up with a error saying the incorrect country has been selected.
I almost just wrote it off thinking maybe they had changed something in a newer release I had missed, but I had a bit a google about and found this information -
Using Regedit go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EA GAMES\Medal of Honor Allied Assault\1.1.12.*** (*** being random numbers) and rename 1.1.12.*** with 1.1.12.200 or if that doesn’t work 1.1.12.100 (1.1.12.200 worked for me)
I thought cool, I can go online and get my ass kicked…but alas HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EA GAMES\Medal of Honor Allied Assault\1.1.12.*** doesn’t exist….
I then noticed HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\, never really noticed that before clicked into the directory and found \EA GAMES\Medal of Honor Allied Assault\1.1.12.***, renamed the directory and it worked straight away.
Thought I would post this for anyone who has to edit a older program but couldn’t find the info, well look in WOW6432Node.
Please be careful when playing with the registry, if you do it wrong you will break your computer.
