If you don't have a shortcut with the mod, then you need to create one.

Find out the name of the mod folder, it will be in Program files\EA Games\Battlefield 2\mods\

Now copy the Battlefield 2 Shortcut and rename it to whatever your mod is called.

Right click on the new shortcut and select properties.

Add +modPath mods/"name of mod folder" +ignoreAsserts 1 to the end of the Target line eg:

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/Omnicide +ignoreAsserts 1



While you are there you can change the icon using the "change icon" button if an icon for the mod is available in the mods folder.How to activate mods in bf2?
Been a while..As i recall when you install a mod you do not start bf2 normally, There is usually a new shortcut created that you should use that will load the mod.



If you can't find one if you go into the mod's folder you should see a .exe . If you click it the mod should load up.
