This version comes in two separate types. If you have Project Reality: BF2 v0.95 already installed, you simply need to download and install the v0.95 to v0.96 "Patch". Otherwise, if you have any previous versions, or you do not have Project Reality installed at all, you will need to download the v0.96 "Full" installers, which comes in 3 separate parts due to the sheer amount of content in Project Reality. All three parts must be installed in order to play if you use the "Full" installers.

New Features and Changes

While this version primarily focused on fixing issues with previous versions of Project Reality, there are some new additions to the game.

• New map: Shijia Valley (4km) (GB vs PLA)
• New game mode: AAS Routes (AASv4)
• New vehicle: Panther CLV
• New PLA kit geometries
• Many changes to existing maps regarding layouts, tickets and overall balance
• Tweaks to soldier sprinting, as well as changes to soldier movement to increase the effect of momentum
• Performance improvements in several weapons and vehicles
• Fixed crashes caused by the UAV and German AT weapons
• Countless other bug fixes and other tweaks and changes
