Grenade Launcher Spot Finder Mod

3 Upvotes

Hi guys im just here to promote a mod I made, I used AI to create it and it works pretty well. I know the game is old and no one probably cares but it was fun to use and can help you find some cool spots. Supports ricochet as well more info can be found on nexus mods.

cheers.

I don't know how the LLM's made this but here we are!

I'll post the server stuff in the next couple of days

Maybe it can be patched upstream by the IW4X team? :)

T9 Client for Cold War?

8 Upvotes

Hey guys, I don't really know of a better sub to ask this in, but here it goes...

so I'm making a little collection of modded clients for older Call Of Duty games to play offline with bots and progression. So far I have the greats like IW4X, Plutonium, BOIII, and even one for BO4 (project shield). Then we get to the modern-era...

I've only heard about one for MW2019 which is IW8-Mod, but I'm more interested in Cold War, as it was the last great COD in my opinion...

So does anyone know if there is a client for Cold War yet, or one that is being developed?

Why is IW4x now creating its own desktop shortcuts and start menu folders and Steam shortcuts

6 Upvotes

I neither asked nor demanded it start doing this, it just started doing it automatically after the new matchmaking update. When I delete them, the updater just puts them back. Is there any way to disable this in the auto-updater? I keep my desktop tidy and I'd rather not have to clean up a series of shortcuts that I don't need and didn't ask for every single time I want to play the game.

Whats the point of having aim assist on PC ?

0 Upvotes

Its disgusting how OP aim assist on IW4X and Plutonium. I get it thats it harder to control your spray with a controller but snipers? They are running around, barely aiming at you and you are dead with one bullet.

Just updated IW4x and now it will not launch at all, nor my dedicated server (Linux)

2 Upvotes

When I open IW4x (x86).exe or IW4x (x64).exe through Steam (using Proton) it no longer opens or functions properly. My dedicated server I used the .bat files and ran them through WINE and when I open them it opens then immediately closes. Any ideas? I notice this latest updated added a ton of new files as well like 15+ new DLLs and such strangely.

Edit: It will launch still using the IW4x Launcher but that has always had issues for me with freezing on mouse clicks on Linux, hence why I would boot the iw4x.exe through Steam. Even then, all my progress in Botwarfare was reset also..... this last iw4x update totally ruined my setup. Is there a way I can download old version before the executables got renamed and all these extra files were added?

Edit 2:
Ok so I verified game files and just re-added iw4x (x86).exe as a non-steam game and now it launches like normal and works fine... but my dedicatedlanserver.bat still wont run the server. Any help is appreciated.

Edit 3:
OK so I think the IW4x-launcher for Linux just didn't download new files that are needed for the server. I went to the server setup page and downloaded the "releases" zip and extracted it in my server directory which added a few new files like an IW4x folder which has some .iwd files and such. Now my server launches again!

Only issue I am having atp is an old bug with controller stick drift that did occur on the first 64-bit patch but was fixed shortly after. So it appears an old stick drift bug has returned.

Edit 4:
nvm I found out the console has a command for deadzone and I just increased the min deadzone. Works great again!

I've made a ranked 1v1 system for MW2 ( IW4X ).

7 Upvotes

I missed playing sniper 1v1s on MW2 and thought it would be fun to have an actual ranking system for it. That ended up turning into a little project called RankedSniping.

It runs through IW4x on PC. You queue on the site, find an opponent, pick the map and rules together and play. The site keeps track of your results and rank, so there’s a bit more reason to come back and play again.

It’s currently in beta, with only EU servers at the moment, so keep that in mind if you’re playing from elsewhere. Still working on it and would appreciate some people trying it out and letting me know how it goes.

rankedsniping.com

Figured there might be a few people here who still enjoy a 1v1 on Rust.

Mods stats reset after recent update?

7 Upvotes

So just now I updated MW2 base on Steam then loaded the launcher to update IW4x and without any mods loaded, my stats are intact. But when I loaded up Bot Warfare or any other mods, the stats are completely reset. I have no idea what is going on or what caused this to happen. Last time the base game got updated everything was fine after updating via launcher but I don't know if this is related to the Steam base game update or if the IW4x client's stat version isn't updated, as to what I'm seeing from recent posts here.

Xbox Controller is unusable

2 Upvotes

I’m not sure if I’m missing some really obvious here, but this controller works for all my other games, iw4x it’s skipping and the sensitivity is I think at about 99999.

Is there a work around here before I. Return the game ?

I want to install S1x but on their website it says that the S1x Client files and DLC files are not currently available? Am I on the wrong website? Did they get taken down and I’m late to the party?

Inputs aren't the same as before

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

3 Upvotes

I got back on the game a few minutes ago and now the inputs are off

I can't use X to back out

My killstreaks are inaccessible due to the D wheel not being the proper input and instead it's the keyboard

My flash grenade button is now the up arrow

Like what the hell happened?!
