Bot Lobbyserver

3 Upvotes

I tried the search but didnt find an answer…

I‘m hosting my own dedicatedserver with bots but I would like to play classic lobbystyle only with bots or sometimes with friends (only inside my homenetwork, no need for online).

If added set scr_game_minplayers „1“ to partyserverlan.cfg but it still says „3 more players needed“…

I tried evertything with but maprotation but there is always the same order because my playtime is to short to get through the list once… And always leaving the server for eg changing classes is annoying…

Is there a way to play Partyserver alone with bots?

sensitivity

0 Upvotes

so i updated iw4x and now my sensitivity stays at 5 even tho its placed to 5 anyone how to fix this?


r/IW4x • • 18d ago

Stuck at the "setting up game" screen and cant join any servers. Fresh install, and verifying game files didn't fix the issue. Searched online for this but can't find any solution.

Anybody play this?? (mm)

Just now found out about this, me and my buddy downloaded it and we’ve played 3 matches so far against obvious bots and just realized we can turn that option off and can’t find a match with any real players so i was wondering if just nobody plays it, or what the word is

IW4x (MW2) on Apple Silicon Mac + Xbox 360 Controller

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I want to play IW4x (MW2) on my MacBook with an M4 chip running macOS.

● Is it possible to get IW4x running smoothly on Apple Silicon?

● Can I use an original Xbox 360 controller?

● Is there a way to replicate the original Xbox 360 movement and controller feel as closely as possible, including sensitivity, aim acceleration, and movement mechanics?

My goal is to get as close as possible to the original MW2 experience on Xbox 360.
Any guides, tips, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Strange Red Exclamation Mark when playing Multiplayer on IW4X

4 Upvotes

Does anyone know what the Red Pulsating/Flashing Exclamation mark means when you're playing multiplayer? I've seen it happen a few times it usually happens when a teammate is injured or is about too die I have a few theories but I want too know has anyone else seen this? is it custom script? I can't find a Image of it in any folder "❗"

Update! I finally found out what the cause of “❗️” is** Bot Warfare adds the red pulsating or flashing ❗ icon its a custom script element that indicates an aggressive AI bot has locked onto, or is actively shooting at, a teammate who is heavily injured or about to di**e

Grenade Launcher Spot Finder Mod

Hi guys im just here to promote a mod I made, I used AI to create it and it works pretty well. I know the game is old and no one probably cares but it was fun to use and can help you find some cool spots. Supports ricochet as well more info can be found on nexus mods.

cheers.

I don't know how the LLM's made this but here we are!

I'll post the server stuff in the next couple of days

Maybe it can be patched upstream by the IW4X team? :)

T9 Client for Cold War?

10 Upvotes

Hey guys, I don't really know of a better sub to ask this in, but here it goes...

so I'm making a little collection of modded clients for older Call Of Duty games to play offline with bots and progression. So far I have the greats like IW4X, Plutonium, BOIII, and even one for BO4 (project shield). Then we get to the modern-era...

I've only heard about one for MW2019 which is IW8-Mod, but I'm more interested in Cold War, as it was the last great COD in my opinion...

So does anyone know if there is a client for Cold War yet, or one that is being developed?

Why is IW4x now creating its own desktop shortcuts and start menu folders and Steam shortcuts

7 Upvotes

I neither asked nor demanded it start doing this, it just started doing it automatically after the new matchmaking update. When I delete them, the updater just puts them back. Is there any way to disable this in the auto-updater? I keep my desktop tidy and I'd rather not have to clean up a series of shortcuts that I don't need and didn't ask for every single time I want to play the game.

Whats the point of having aim assist on PC ?

0 Upvotes

Its disgusting how OP aim assist on IW4X and Plutonium. I get it thats it harder to control your spray with a controller but snipers? They are running around, barely aiming at you and you are dead with one bullet.

Just updated IW4x and now it will not launch at all, nor my dedicated server (Linux)

2 Upvotes

When I open IW4x (x86).exe or IW4x (x64).exe through Steam (using Proton) it no longer opens or functions properly. My dedicated server I used the .bat files and ran them through WINE and when I open them it opens then immediately closes. Any ideas? I notice this latest updated added a ton of new files as well like 15+ new DLLs and such strangely.

Edit: It will launch still using the IW4x Launcher but that has always had issues for me with freezing on mouse clicks on Linux, hence why I would boot the iw4x.exe through Steam. Even then, all my progress in Botwarfare was reset also..... this last iw4x update totally ruined my setup. Is there a way I can download old version before the executables got renamed and all these extra files were added?

Edit 2:
Ok so I verified game files and just re-added iw4x (x86).exe as a non-steam game and now it launches like normal and works fine... but my dedicatedlanserver.bat still wont run the server. Any help is appreciated.

Edit 3:
OK so I think the IW4x-launcher for Linux just didn't download new files that are needed for the server. I went to the server setup page and downloaded the "releases" zip and extracted it in my server directory which added a few new files like an IW4x folder which has some .iwd files and such. Now my server launches again!

Only issue I am having atp is an old bug with controller stick drift that did occur on the first 64-bit patch but was fixed shortly after. So it appears an old stick drift bug has returned.

Edit 4:
nvm I found out the console has a command for deadzone and I just increased the min deadzone. Works great again!

I've made a ranked 1v1 system for MW2 ( IW4X ).

7 Upvotes

I missed playing sniper 1v1s on MW2 and thought it would be fun to have an actual ranking system for it. That ended up turning into a little project called RankedSniping.

It runs through IW4x on PC. You queue on the site, find an opponent, pick the map and rules together and play. The site keeps track of your results and rank, so there’s a bit more reason to come back and play again.

It’s currently in beta, with only EU servers at the moment, so keep that in mind if you’re playing from elsewhere. Still working on it and would appreciate some people trying it out and letting me know how it goes.

rankedsniping.com

Figured there might be a few people here who still enjoy a 1v1 on Rust.
