GameSpy multiplayer services for EA Games closed down in July, as predicted http://www.ea.com/news/update-on-ea-tit … on-gamespy. This means several dozens of games have limited or any multiplayer functionality, including Battlefield 1942 (BF1942). Specifically, Battlefield 1942 in-game browser stopped working after July 26. This had a negative impact on the game, since most players use the in-game browser to connect to servers and also due to a code error, BF1942 freezes when they reach in-game server browser.
What you have to do, as a player, is replace your BF1942 executable with a patched one, which has master.gamespy.com server replaced with master.bf1942.sk and several other fixes included. You can do this automatically by downloading and running this patch file:
Or you can do it manually, and in case, you have BF1942 downloaded from Origin, you have to get this zip package:
If you do not have BF1942 downloaded from Origin, you should have BF1942 CD-based (Retail) version installed, obtained from a torrent, website or from CDs, and you will need to download this zip package:

Then, you extract that zip package in your game directory, making sure all files are overwritten. Please, read the included simple.txt file which has all installation instructions.
