List of Battlefield 1942 mods

Encyclopedia : L : LI : LIS : List of Battlefield 1942 mods


This is a list of mods for the first-person shooter computer game Battlefield 1942.

Like Half-Life and some other popular FPS games, Battlefield 1942 has spawned a tremendous number of mods. Most do not progress very far and are abandoned without ever producing a public release. 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.

A few mods have become popular and are nearly games in their own right. Early modifications of BF1942 are impressive in that there was no SDK, but recently a "Mod Development Kit" has been produced [link].

With the release of the BF1942 sequel Battlefield Vietnam, some mods have either made a new version or have continued development with that game. Battlefield Vietnam uses an updated version of the Refractor 2 game engine. 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 advanced engines or in hopes that problems encountered with BF1942 will be solved by a different game engine. Some mods have moved/switched to the computer games , Half-Life 2 or others for the same reasons. (See also: List of Battlefield Vietnam mods)

A mod's popularity rises and falls with releases of both other mods, and other games. 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. 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. New releases will usually garner new players to a mod's 'standard player base' enabling it to survive. (See Comparisons of Battlefield 1942 mods)
