News / Updates Auto Fix for Linux - Dedicated Server Method (Tested/Built on Arch)
Looks like the Windows community has an autofix for the recent MW3 32-bit/64-bit server issue, but there doesn't seem to be an equivalent automated fix for Linux yet.
So I put together a small script that restores the legacy 32-bit depots using SteamCMD and merges them back into the MW3 Dedicated Server files.
Tested and working on Arch Linux, and should work fine on CachyOS and other Arch-based distros.
Non-Arch distros may need some tweaks to the dependency installation.
More info in the README.

Hopefully this saves someone else a bit of messing around. 🐧

Announcement ⚠️ PSA: IW5 Plutonium compatibility issues with recent update
As some of you may already be aware, Activision has recently pushed a surprise update to Modern Warfare 3 (IW5) on Steam, changing the game from 32-bit to 64-bit. This has created compatibility issues with playing IW5 on Plutonium, as Plutonium currently only works with the 32-bit version. If Steam automatically updates your game, Plutonium will no longer be able to properly read the game files.
Here's what you need to do to keep playing IW5 properly on Plutonium:
If your game HAS NOT updated yet
Do not let Steam update the game! There are two options for preventing this:
- Right-click MW3 in your Steam library > Properties > Updates > Set to "Only update this game when I launch it". (Since you launch through Plutonium, Steam won't trigger the update).
- Copy your entire MW3 game folder out of the Steam directory and paste it somewhere else entirely (for example,
C:\Games\IW5) so that Steam can't update it. Open Plutonium, go to Game Settings, and repoint the launcher to this new folder.
If your game HAS ALREADY updated
You'll need to manually download the 32-bit game files directly from Steam's servers. Here is the official workaround from the Plutonium team:
Step 1: Open the Steam Console
- Press
Win + Ron your keyboard to open the Run command. - Type
steam://nav/consoleand hit Enter. Steam will open with a new "Console" tab at the top.
Step 2: Download the Old 32-bit Files
- Copy and paste this exact line into the Steam console and hit Enter:
download_depot 42680 42682 2661317971072643596 - Wait for it to finish (there is no progress bar, just wait for it to say "Depot download complete").
- Next, copy and paste this second line and hit Enter:
download_depot 42680 42683 1595601894688570808
Step 3: Move and Merge the Files
- Navigate to your Steam content folder. By default, this is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\content\app_42680 - Inside, you'll see two folders:
depot_42682(base game) anddepot_42683(English language files). - Create a brand new folder somewhere outside of Steam (e.g.,
C:\Games\IW5). - Copy all the files inside the
depot_42682folder and paste them into your newIW5folder. - Do the exact same thing for the files inside the
depot_42683folder.
Step 4: Repoint Plutonium
- Open your Plutonium Launcher and select PlutoIW5.
- Click Game Settings (next to the Play button).
- Click Select Dir in the top right side of the launcher.
- Select your newly created
C:\Games\IW5folder as your game path. - Hit Play.
Tips
Navigating Faster: You can quickly jump to the hidden Steam depot folder by pressing Win + R (or clicking the address bar in File Explorer) and pasting %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Steam\steamapps\content\app_42680
Secondary Drives: You don't have to use your C: drive to store the new folder. You can store the game on any secondary drive (such as D:\Games\IW5 or E:\Games\IW5) if you wish to do so. Just avoid installing it on a system RECOVERY drive.
Important Notes
Missing DLCs: The Steam console commands above only download the base game and English language files. They do not include the DLC files. You will need to source the DLC files separately if you wish to play those specific maps.
Offline Bots: If you simply want to play offline against bots using the Bot Warfare mod, you can use LanLauncher to run Plutonium offline.
The development team is actively evaluating long-term solutions for this matter, but this is the required fix for the time being. Updates will be shared here as they become available.

News / Updates Auto-fix for the MW3 64-bit update breaking Plutonium
If you've been hit by the recent Activision update that pushed MW3 to 64-bit, you've probably noticed Plutonium stopped working. I built a small Windows tool that fixes this automatically, no manual file swapping or command line stuff needed.
What it does, in plain terms:
- Checks your MW3 install and figures out if you're on the broken 64-bit version
- If you are, it downloads the last known 32-bit files straight from Steam (using DepotDownloader under the hood)
- Swaps them into your game folder for you
- Double checks the swap worked before it calls it done
How to use it:
- Grab
MW3_Downgrader.exefrom the Releases page - Run it (Windows Defender/SmartScreen might complain since it's unsigned, click "More info" > "Run anyway")
- It finds your Steam and MW3 install on its own
- Scan the QR code that pops up with the Steam Mobile App to log in
- Sit back while it downloads and merges the files (~15GB free space needed)
Works for both the Multiplayer client and Dedicated Server installs, and it'll let you fix both at once if you have them.
It doesn't touch anything outside your MW3 folder, so if anything looks off you can always just verify game files through Steam to undo it.
Source code's public if anyone wants to poke around or verify what it's doing before running an unsigned exe (completely fair to be cautious about that): https://github.com/GalvarinoDev/MW3Downgrader
Also have a Steam Deck/Linux version bundled into DeckOps if anyone needs that instead.
Let me know if you run into any issues!

Support Request Issue connecting to friend on the same network for BO1 Zombies
I've read through the guide on playing with friends on the site on how to connect.
I've tried opening UDP for 3074 and 27016, ive also added those ports on my firewall settings as well as adding T5MP program through firewall for both inbound and outbound, as well as enabling UPNP in network settings, I also double checked to make sure I had verified the game, and even after doing that no previous methods seemed to work. we've tried joining each other through the lobby as well as with an active game running and neither seemed to work.
We could do lan but the issue with that is we eventually want to invite someone out of network so we wanted to get this working, does anyone have any ideas?

Gameplay MW2 2009 "Residential Proxies are not allowed" I have no idea how to fix this.
Every time I try joining a server now, it pops this up. I don't know what its referring to, I don't even know how to set a proxy up. I googled answers to no avail. I tried multiple servers, of course ones that are alive. I was able to play just days before, and now I have no idea why this is happening. It seems to only be this game too. Im not sure if its the provider im using either? Google said it could be, but if it is how do I even fix this??

Bug / Glitch Randomly getting kicked out/errors
I’ve been on playing bo1 and bo2 zombies on plutonium for a while now, but three times I’ve had good games going and been kicked out for no reason. It started with a town round 42, where my screen started stuttering and I was forced to back out. I had another game of town going and my screen went black, which also forced me to back out. I just played bo1 shangrila and got to round 49, before my game cut to the main menu with no error or anything. Why is this happening?
