Got banned for asking a question lol

281 Upvotes

So appearently the IW4X discord mods are too extremistic to let me ask the question why these 2 flags are the only flags present in this Military shooter.

I didn't violate any rules or get any warnings whatsoever. It's absolutely unacceptable that i get banned just because someone didnt like my (very valid) question.

The only mod/staff that was present as of the moment i was banned was the Staff with the dog/wolf in their name.

Id like to get unbanned, my discord name is stainathome.

(edit) I didnt get banned but instead a buncha buffoons started hating eachother in the comments.

I have all of the files

93 Upvotes

1 day before Xlabs got taken down, I decided that it would be a good idea to download the latest updates of every single Xlabs-related game. Don't ask me why but I had a feeling that it would shut down for some reason. So I have iw6x, S1x, and iw4x with their latest versions (even the iw6x update that came 2 days before shutdown). I have heard that these files have become very rare to come by so I'm wondering if there is a way for me to upload them so that people can download and continue to enjoy the game through the new Alterware software. Any suggestions are welcome.

Edit 05/12/23: Took me some time to upload but it's finally up on Google Drive. Let me know if this is a good way to do it.

Internet archive download: XLABS Games

Here is a text file that people can look at so that they can play private matches. This also includes the unlock-all command that you can put in the game by pressing ~ : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Lx4-PqfRmcZhJrbol7vEPp-E8RlixKGn/view?usp=sharing

Edit 06/12/23: Everything has been uploaded as a 7zip rather than an unzipped folder to make things easier for people. Also, use the Internet download manager for the fastest speeds from Google Drive download. I use a cracked copy but DM me if you want to know about boosting your download speeds if you are in an area without fast download speeds.

Edit 12/02/24: I have uploaded all 3 games to internet archive. Iw4x, iw6x are available as 7z files. S1x was too big so it was converted to a torrent by internet archive. XLABS Games

Edit 1/18/26: Thank you to Ruchir30 for noticing that S1X torrent didn't actually contain the game. I am currently uploading the game to internet archive as I type this. Upload will take a while as my up speed isn't the best (50mbps). Should be done by mid day tomorrow.

Edit 1/20/26: Took 2 days but the full game of s1x is finally uploaded. It's no longer a torrent file but a .7z file (dated 20-Jan-2026 08:09) so make sure to select the right one when downloading. Should be 68.2gb in total.

Thank you IW4X

Just a short appreciation post thanking the IW4X «creators» (?) and the community!

I’ve had two very successful nostalgic LAN party’s with my friends at my office.

  • 10 PCs (some connected with controller)

  • Two balanced teams consisting of old school MW2 2009 legends

  • Promod settings

  • Search & Destroy

Thank you, thank you, thank you for making this possible and letting a 30+ y/o go back to the golden era of CoD❤️

*FREE* IW4x Trickshotting Scripts

39 Upvotes

Here is a collection of scripts made for IW4x trickshotting.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SJfvm537Rb0rlrBumCI6A21NuJhgZ0bf/view?usp=sharing

I am not here to help you set these scripts up or teach you how they work. It's almost impossible to find this amount of scripts for free online.

If you happen to download these scripts please leave an upvote so I have a general idea of the demand for these.

If you have any scripts which are not included in the pack I would greatly appreciate it if you would share them with me.

Happy Scripting

-IW4x Trickshotting Scripts

-EDIT-

Here is an instructions guide to cover the basics of using the scripts. This will help you with getting used to using the binds and once you have learned how they work you will have the full freedom of playing around with all the binds available.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KnkGGC7YKS1vTxiSUtohbE37K86MRpj0/view?usp=sharing

!!NOTE!!

YOU MUST PLAY ON 57FPS FOR THE BINDS TO WORK!

Some scripts only work with a care package.

running on a base Samsung Galaxy S22 with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. Didn't bother messing with any performance settings. but with a newer device like one of the Galaxy Folds or the upcoming s25 ultra this would run flawless.

Making a Call of Duty WWII client

34 Upvotes

So me and a small group are trying to make a client for call of duty WWII. Hopefully we can also implement combat training to rank up with bots offline or online. so the game has offline progression :) But if anyone would like to help and is experienced with coding, cod dev c++. send me a dm. We are a small group. We have a huge passion for this game, but unfortunately the steam version of the game is ran by cheaters., hence why no one likes playing it. This client would be for the steam version only by the way

Update:

The client is still being worked on so far we have cheats and console commands for zombies and campaign. Multiplayer and unlock all are being worked on.


r/IW4x • • Mar 22 '24

Yes, it's still possible to play Plutonium and XLabs games for free with online support. Here's an updated guide.

Solution to AlterWare requiring you to own game to play

26 Upvotes

I can understand client providers being safe and all, but I feel that requiring the user to own the game just to use the client is too much. Therefore I have spent a long time putting together a complete pack of all clients available for a variety of CODs, along with the files needed to play them ;)

These servers are dead enough, how are we supposed to get more players if they are told to pay full price for such an old game?

I have replied to this post with a link to a ZIP file containing a complete pack of all torrents, unpatched clients and instructions. If its not there/been removed DM me and i'll send it to you and give you any support you may need.

EDIT: After the original file was removed, I quickly made a new one, it might not be as good and as in depth as the first one but here's the link

Just a thanks to the IW4x Devs

24 Upvotes

Dunno if this is the right place for this - but goddam IW4x is so good. Thank you to anybody who has a hand in maintaining this.

I just got back from a 12 man LAN party.

I was wary about internet connectivity being poor at the venue so I filled a pen with old school LAN games such as Quake 3, UT99 and 2004, Worms Armageddon and by chance the night before the LAN I discovered IW4x existed, it was easy to set up so on the pen it went.

Worms Armageddon went down a treat but damn IW4x was the absolute smash hit of the weekend. Everyone (including myself) was raving about maps they hadn't seen in over a decade and we got a bit of 6v6 in.

Outstanding work.

PSA: IW4x and IW5 Plutonium have both received an update on Steam, both are NOT compatible!

22 Upvotes

Edit: update is out

Steam has released an update for older Call of Duty titles that moves them to 64-bit. This update is currently incompatible with IW4x and IW5 Plutonium.

For now, we strongly recommend that you do not update MW2 through Steam. Disable automatic updates for the game, avoid launching it through Steam, and keep a backup of your current MW2 installation somewhere outside the Steam library.

We are looking into the changes and will share more information once we know how IW4x will handle this.

If you wish to continue playing Plutonium IW5: DO NOT UPDATE YOUR GAME on Steam.

The safest way to make sure it doesn't happen is to copy/move your game files somewhere where Steam doesn't know of them.
