    Sgt Wacky got a reaction from BlackRose in COD 4 Steam version 1.81 step back issue...iw3mp file   
    The wonders of Steam...any how COD 4 is running version 1.81.... and I understand the need to revert is back to 1.7..... 
    I previously got iw3mp (3).exe from Loader and used it but now when I try to replace it with the one Steam installed...doesn't revert back. I re-named the previous one to oldiw3mp then copied in Loader file.
    Any suggestions?  Any help would be appreciated
     
    Thanks

    Sgt Wacky got a reaction from BlackRose in Game crashes after completion of every map and switch to next one   
    Looking for assistance/direction to solve an issue that began couple of days ago.
    After every map has concluded,  I see the new map opening screen  but then the game becomes unresponsive. Only way out is to go to Task Manager and end task. I can then re-start the game and am able to get into the map just fine to play.
    At one point, I did receive a message of a DirectX error along the lines of "unrecoverable error" however I do not recall the full details of the pop-up.
    In game, I am also seeing delays where I am shot by a player and then the player shows up on the screen. This has been more pronounced seemingly since this other issues has occurred.  I am not sure if they are related or not.
    Suggestions/solutions?

    Sgt Wacky got a reaction from Majbasil in total knee replacement   
    As someone who has had 11 knee operations between both knees and full replacement twice on my right knee.....with the left knee being scheduled as we speak.... I definitely know the experiences you are going through. Time is the healer. You can't rush it. You shouldn't compare yourself to others who have had it done to determine if you are progressing well or not. Everyone is different.  The pain sucks...period.... but overtime it does get better.
    Key things that helped me in my recoveries were:
    1)Elevate knee above the horizontal.....if you don't the blood flows downwards and the knee/leg will throb more.
    2)ICE the knee religiously. Icing will significantly reduce the swelling and corresponding reduce the pain. Ice packs are good. CryoCuff, (google it),  is even better. If you're able, and it is the absolute best way to address the swelling....google GameReady. These devices I have used for a number of my surgeries they are excellent. These devices are used by a lot of pro sports teams. It isn't magic, and it is not the most pleasant thing to use but it is highly effective in managing the recovery of the knee. You can rent them......
    3)Drink lots of fluids but stay away from the sugary types. Hydrating yourself is very important. The downside to this is you will need to get off the couch to go pee and it is painful to get there and back to the washroom.
    4)Increase your fibre. Don't laugh unless you've been there and understand what I'm saying. Pains med typically are not nice to the digestive system.
    5)When you are not icing or sleeping...get off your butt and walk. Yes it will hurt to the point you want to scream and yes there were times I definitely had tears in my eyes.....but you need to get up and moving. Start with using the walker. Then crutches after a few weeks. Then graduate to using a cane. It will be your best friend from many a weeks. Forget about moving fast...stay in the slow lane!!! Oh ya.....remember to lift your leg when walking cause it hurts like hell when you forget to and it drags or hits something. I definite cussed more then a few times when I didn't stay focused on the mechanics of how to walk.
    6)DO YOU EXERCISES multiple times a day. Yes it is not pleasant. Yes it will hurt until you want to cry....but do them. Always make sure you take your pain meds before doing the workout. Don't try top be the hero.  From experience the less you do your exercises and walking the longer the recovery period will be......
     
    The days can be long and rest assured.....the nights can seem much longer especially when you are in pain......you will get through it.  Set some simple goals each day to focus on that are not related to the knee. This will help the mental recovery part of the process.
    Hope this helps and let you know you are not the first to go through it.... and you will get better.
    Cheers!

    Sgt Wacky got a reaction from Sharpe in New PC video issues   
    Thanks for your follow-up and comments.
    It appears that the issue was associated with "Sync every frame" setting in COD 4. I changed the setting to "no" and am now getting significantly higher fps. I will test setting my fps to 333 as well to see if it helps further.
    Cheers!

    Sgt Wacky got a reaction from ANGU5 in what do you do??   
    Like most of you, I have had a number of jobs. I am a engineer by schooling and initially started out designing production lines for the food industry, (chunky soup, prego spaghetti sauce etc.). It was really diverse and challenging. From there someone saw that I had some skills and I progressively moved through the management ranks primarily in operations and got a reputation as a turn around guy for businesses that were loosing money and were very inefficient.  Tons of pressure and not always the best of working conditions. I assure you you don't make too many friends in that line of work but it was one heck of a learning experience. Left doing that and ran manufacturing operations for the office products industry. Did that for about 10 years but the 7/24 environment and the phone never stopped ringing kinda wore me out. Thought I would take a break and do some consulting and  realized I was working harder than ever. Dah... what a idiot I was. With a bit of being in the right place at the right time I found  my current job.  Being doing it for about 11 years now and am the VP of Operations for Canada for a multi-national company here in Toronto. Retirement should be in the future but honestly after 38 plus years work is still fun...and heck they pay me pretty well at the same time.....
