{OTB} (Only the Best) BF1942 Clan, formerly the {98th} during the Medal of Honor series, was formed in 2003. Our desire was to run family friendly servers with anti cheat and anti hack maps that were modded by our own very talented clan members. In addition we managed our servers around the clock by many admins located around the world so trouble makers would be dealt with quickly no matter the time of day. We ran our own dedicated Demo Wake and Demo Secret Weapons (Hellendorn) servers along with the full retail version of BF1942 and a separate server that first ran DC, then DCF and finally DCX.9 mod for many years finally shutting down in 2008.

Then in 2019 I decided to start running the full retail version of BF1942 with the best maps from the DC, DCF, DCX.9 and DCFX mods. Starting with the DCX mod the realism of the actual power of weapons was introduced with firepower that provided one shot one kill engagements for well placed rounds. Shell drop over distance was dramatically reduced to produce straight line of sight trajectory of high speed muzzle rounds of both hand weapons and armored vehicles. When your ready to move beyond the watered down DC-DCF mods and into the real world of DCX and beyond we will be waiting for you.

You will need to install the game in the following order to get BF1942 to play on modern Windows machines.

1.) Retail version of BF1942 "The Complete Collection" (CD's) can be purchased on eBay usually for $10 to $20. Make sure the CD-Keys are included. Install all four BF1942 CD's.

4.) SiMPLE Battlefield 1942 GameSpy patch v1.61 (Gamespy shut down in 2014 so this patch will redirect your BF1942 program to a server in France that allows you to become visible on the internet so you can once again play BF1942 online.) Special THANKS to the SiMPLE team members that make this possible!!!
