I just bought a 16" 2019 mbp core i9 32gb ram 1tb storage off of backmarket.com for $440 including tax. I intend to give it to my son after I install windows on it. he keeps breaking my old gaming desktop with 1070ti FYI.

You are right. I should've been clearer. Porting Kit gives a warning that you are running software that will not be supported in the next version of macOS. In contrast, I created a DOS game in 2002 and it still runs on Windows 11 today.

that explains it, for whatever reason you cannot reach the server. Check your firewall, or ask your ISP if they are blocking it. The alternative could be that server host is blocking you but that's extremely rare.

Very nice. Since you have intel CPU, you probably have the integrated GPU. What's your resolution? Drop the in-game resolution to lower number to see if it works. Also, adjust your /rate to 15000 and then reconnect. Set the graphics to the lowest and disable anti-aliasing. Only enable shadows.

@El_Terrible don't give up there's hope and it's worth it.

People often want to know which is the next map, I have added public commands available to all players. # To see the next map, type the following in regular chat - Press T and then type $nextmap # To see the entire rotation list, the following in regular chat - Presss T and then type $rotation It will feel odd but command are prefixed with $ not ! on this server.

I forgot to mention, once you set your rate /reconnect so the server can reset the new connection rate for you. If you still experience connection related issues try lower your rate to /rate 15000. Basically play with this number until you find your sweet spot. There's no one size fits all unfortunately.

@ShadyBrady@Icequeen@Cecilia@FrankCastle@Dukoo This applies to those who reported, lag spikes, hit reg, and frame skipping issues. This is related to the network connection settings on the server and your client. When we relaunched the server I set the server to allow connections up to 100Kbps, which with today's internet speeds is like sending a spit worth's of water down a 10inch pipe. This makes the game ultra smooth for people with fast computers, powerful routers and ideal ping. Not so much for people who have higher latency, WiFi connections or other limiting factors. It seems like the ideal setting to accommodate such a wide range of players is 25Kbps. There's more technical detail but I don't think most people care enough to know. Shady, you started experiencing this frame skipping after I changed the setting to the lower value while there were few people on the server. It gave me the confirmation I needed, sorry about that though. Please do the following in your game. - Press ~ then type /rate 25000 - Hit Enter - Press ~ to close the console I will apply the appropriate settings on the server and this SHOULD address the occasional lag spikes, CI's or frame skipping.

This doesn't sound right, or whatever reason your connection to the server is blocked. DO you know how to run a ping? Can you please try doing that and it will confirm my suspicion. XI< MW2 Ftag CoD4x IP: 74.91.116.93:28960 Players: 11/36 Rank: 4th (99th pctile)

Ok can you press ~ on your keyboard then type the following /connect 74.91.116.93:28960 then hit enter. What happens?

Please connect to the old server that you know, it will auto connect you to the new server.

No idea, why or how to address this but I know one way that works. - Click Favorites in the game browser - Click New Favorite and then put in the IP address 74.91.116.93:28960 - Click Ok then Refresh List

Do you have some sort of Firewall blocking any ports? Are you able to connect to other COD4 servers? - Run a ping in window to 74.91.116.93 Open Command Prompt type ping 74.91.116.93 Let me know what you get.

@El_Terrible Somebody who loves this game even more than us, took it upon themselves to create a native 64bit version of the game. I have not tested it but this apparently works on x86_64 macs too. Try it? https://github.com/SwagSoftware/KisakCOD

I am sorry to hear that El Terriblay... we put a lot of consideration when undertaking this effort. The benefits simply outweigh the cons. I play on an Apple silicon and it's very respectable. Apple is going to discontinue 32-bit app support in the next macos release, so you will eventually not be able to play the game on a Mac. Are you 100% sure the gpu translation is working? My FPS was 10-15 when it was purely CPU fallback. I don't have an Intel Mac otherwise I would've investigated. @azzkikr has an Intel Mac. Maybe he can try it out too. For shits ands giggles can you try parallels? They've a trial version. If you just hate windows try Linux on parallels.
