I have to put the disk in and play from the disk. I didn't have to do that before. Anybody have any suggestions. All of the other COD's did fine. I tried to reinstall it but I didn't want to lose any maps or anything. It wants me to uninstall and try reinstalling it, how do you do that without losing maps. I am a dumb ass this month. Too many other distractions. There is something about the bnk32 file not located or something, also. Anybody up for a Crossloop and fix my ass. I will let you see my man boobs. lmao. No that would scare you away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Navigate to the same file and right click and drag the file onto your desktop. When you let go select the option "create shortcut" and you are all set Just make sure you select the MP file, not the SP file for the single player, unless that is what you want Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of strange to me. And I tried to play after I thought that I had all of the maps done on the downloader and I still had to wait for them to down load. That is the common way to do a shortcut, but it isn't there. I can't find the maps under activision either. I hope I don't have to reinstall them.

Since it takes so long to down load all of the maps. The program isn't there to get the icons from. I know they should be but they aren't there. I have to play from disc. Maybe I should unistall and reinstall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Should be in (C:)/ProgramFiles(86)/Activision/Call of Duty-World at War (with UAC off) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
