cod4 question

Hi all just installed the game through steam and no XI server are showing up ????

You'll need to patch the game. Steam released a patch which ended up stopping a lot of servers from showing. You can find the patch here:

All you need to do is drop it in the main CoD4 directory where the exe is and overright the original one with this one. This will revert it to the older version. Also see if you cna turn off automatic steam updates for this game.

Many of us use HLSW for that very reason...Master server has been crap for years and sometimes it will give you a list and sometimes not...Install it and add server ip's

Got this COD4X by accident on playing on this version server after saw some advice about downgrading version and others.

you also need to go into filters to show all servers

The latest official version, is 1.7, the 1.8 and now the 1.9 versions are CoD4X.  COD4X is a MOD not from Activision. Looking at the COD4X 19.0 description found over at Gamepressure it looks like it may now support connections to 1.7 servers.  However I haven't tested this.  Anyone want to give it a try?

...or you could just type the server address from our server list from our home page, adding it to your favorites.

I don't think that works, the COD4X 1.8 that Steam pushes out isn't compatible with 1.7 servers.  Remember 1.8 is a MOD.  However I did run over to the COD4X Website and found a 20.0 version that I installed and ran.  Works fine with out freeze tag 1 sever and connected to several others.  So if you have downloaded COD4 from Steam I suggest you do one of two things.... The rollback to version 1.7..... Or download the 20.0 mod update from COD4X.  So with the COD4X 20.0 installed you can join all the servers out there from 1.7 up.

Just ran the Auto-Update in the COD4X and there is a 20.5 version... Still running fine after the update.  Also connected to the MW2 FT server with no problems.
