I tried the compatibility mod with Windows XP and exec as an admin but but it won't work. Always the same message about the compatibility. Could someone help me plz? Or is it hopeless? Thks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

How can I look for the XI servers? I have got the number of the 2 servers but can't find them in the list when updating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

You cannot find the servers because you are running the wrong version of the game. You will need Version 1.3 which you can download here: Use XP compatability mode with both the single player and multiplayer exe and both should work. As for finding the servers, do you have HLSW installed? If not, you can download it here: http://www.hlsw.org/hlsw/download/ You don't have to register, you can use offline mode in the application. Once you have opened the program you will see a long address bar at the top. Put these in there one by one and HLSW will add them for you as CoD2 servers: 74.91.123.194:28960 74.91.123.221:28960 The top one is TDM and the bottom one is DM. When you join you will probably be known as Unknown Soldier, just change your name the downloads do take a while and if they fail, just reconnect and try again, you can get them; just might take a few times.

Then I click on Multiplayer and go get another beer and by the time I get back I've forgotten what I was doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
