PainKiller

I'm still amazed the forum can contain this amount of stupidity at once.

We need a section specifically for piss-takin... I mean discussion, of theories such as this.

Not sure if this is a late april fools joke or your tin hat fell off..

Not been on that game for ages, played a few hours on it. If we can get a steady crowd it, it might be a good thing.

I'll see if I can make it, if not, I'll try be on tomorrow evening

We're all here for you brother

Thoughts are with bart and his wife in this trying time. I wish him a speedy recovery

Oh god here we go ? It was only a matter of time

You gotta be a bloody idiot to fall for it

I call dibs on being top. I won't get it but dammit I'll try!

May or may not be in a caffeine induced daze

It has me stumped that's for sure. I am trying to work out why it's trying to look in your system32 folder when you boot the game though Have you tried booting single player? Try that, it might need to make your config file first.

Can you show an image of your /main folder please? looks like you've got missing files. Which is odd. I need to be able to see the sizes of the folders in the /main directory too. You need these folders:

Best idea to stick with the version that is stable then but still try the tips that Rob and I have posted. Feel free to post some bits and pieces and we might be able to help. The most common issue with CoD2 is Direct X errors, but take it step by step, eliminating problems as they come. Message Loader and get him on TS if you can. I am not always around but I can be if you need it.

First off, FU beer you wanker What type of headset are you using? If it is a USB one, the game has a real hard time picking that up so if you have a 3.5mm jack on it, use that. It wouldn't matter if you put it in the onboard sound or on the sound card it will still work regardless. You just need to tell the computer what it's going to use. As for the game crashing on start up, try updating the game to 1.3 (should be done automatically if done through Steam) and also make sure that your video drivers are up to date. It could also be crashing because the game cannot render the current settings. To sort this out you need to find your player config file. If you are using Steam this is: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Call of Duty 2\28\players If you are using the disc then it will be C:\Program Files (x86)\Activision\Call of Duty 2\28\players If you have not yet been able to connect at all then you will not have a player profile to edit. If that's the case I can send you mine and tell you which bits you need to edit. You then need to look for the file config_mp.cfg and you are looking for these lines: seta com_hunkMegs "256" or something similar. Change that value to 512. That will allocate the game more memory to run some of the more demanding stuff the mod has and the maps that have a lot on them. seta r_rendererPreference "auto" set that to "dx7" instead of auto. It will force the game to render in DirectX 7 and not be such a dick when you are starting it up. Also make sure you are running the game in compatability mode for Windows XP SP3 and administrator.

I'll happily give it a go!! Been wanting to try it out for some time

For myself, it's that I find other games to play really. Nothing else than that. I dedicate most of my time to CoD2 if I am not off playing something else in my extensive steam library or other platforms I have. I still come onto CoD4 MWF2 FT every now and then though for a good laugh depending who is on or the map being played.

Wait till you get to higher level stuff on that game. You won't hear the end of trash talk and personal attacks.

I would love to be there for this but sadly I am busy over the weekend. I'll keep him in my thoughts

It was good to see you in PMan, We still run snipers on TDM as you saw and DM gets busy in the weekday evenings so be sure to come along to that!

Such a shock to wake up and find this out! It's surreal. JD put so much into this, his heart and soul. Let's keep him in our hearts and minds and carry on the legacy that he left behind: a kick ass >XI< spirit

Grab loader or I and we'll see what we can put together. Stuff like maps and modes, things like that.

Loader just messaged me this morning about this. I am so gutted about this. my thoughts and condolences go to you, Sandra and all of your family in this time. Take all the time you need to heal - we'll all be here when you come back. Forever in our hearts and minds - Geoff. Rest easy buddy.

Welcome JR, knew it wouldn't be long

I don't think that the Panzerfausts will work to be honest. We have flamethrowers on DM and they can lag the game to all hell - I have no clue what the panzerfausts will do. But, I can give it a go. If I want to bring CTF into the TDM server it will have to go to a voting system where you can vote for either CTF or TDm BUT that is something I haven't looked at. There is a map vote system but not sure on mode vote. I am not sure if people will be happy with a random CTF map coming up because some players will just come in for CTF, some for TDM which is why the event server will be used for all the CTF stuff.
