Yeah, sprinting is a feature that no game should be without.

A couple other things I noticed:

- Bunny hopping is too easy (probably fixed in multiplayer).

- When looking through the binoculars, pressing the weapon fire button causes the binocular view to dissapear instantly (not showing the correct animation).

- All of the cvars are nearly identical for CoD :)

- The .iwd files (Infinity Ward Developer files?) are pretty much the same thing as .pk3 files.

Really, the non-graphical aspect of the engine looks like it hasn't changed much. Neither has the file structure. I still love the game play and enjoyed this demo. No other game has the same feel to it. Don't go playing it expecting rag-doll physics or major breakthroughs.

Although this game is Direct3D, I expect the full release to be very hackable after observing the demo.

hate sprinting, in UO people just run at you left right jump prone spam in your face after you rfile them once (which of course doesnt drop them due to nerfed rifles).

hope to have the demo in a few hours, :)

The 100mbit links still works for me, but it has a continuing problem of 421, too many users connected.

above is the link for .torrent

also game seems ok for a sp demo.

still cod1 is the best for shure, Cod:UO never did like its lag,
and the rifles suck due to bad lag...

lets hope cod2 isnt just another cheap way to make some fast easy money.

dont think they need anything to be convinced, kinda logicall they'll support them anyway

I haven't heard anything about PB support yet. IW / Activision will probably wait and see how much the game is hacked before signing any contracts. They did the same thing for CoD (PB wasn't introduced until two or three patches later).

Many people are demanding out-of-the-box PB support but it's too late now.

Just remember that this is just a demo. Things could change.

SejiSilverLeaf : Try runing the game in safe mode and see if that helps.

I have attatched some pictures of the chams I made.

Done so far:

- Two bright wall modes (D3D)
- Bright players (D3D)
- Chams (D3D)
- No Recoil / Bullet Hit Shake (Client Hook)
- No Fog (D3D)
- No Smoke (Client Hook)
- Text Printing (Client Hook)
- Triggerbot (Client Hook)

Nice work Dove, that's probably easily portable to the MP version of the game. :)

Safe mode did not work. I load the game, but it never gets to anything else, just exits out after you see the loading screen of the american troop portrait thing. then that error comes up.

What video card do you have? You need a newer ATI / NVidia in order to run it.

I have a Radeon 9250. usually if the card does not support the game, it will give me hell during installation, this didnt. Installed perfectly but gives me that error when i try to play.

:laugh:

SejiSilverLeaf: The MSS error is sound-related. Check and see if you have a file called "mss32.dll" in your Call of Duty 2 Demo folder. If you do not have the file or still cannot figure out the answer, try reinstalling the demo. If that does not work, try updating your sound card drivers to the latest version.

I have the dll, but now you said it would be sound card related? Does this mean i need to buy a new one, or download software? I have never updated a sound card driver before, so how do i find out which one i have, and where to get the driver from?

BlackDove

Start > Run > Type "mmsys.cpl" without quotes > Look on each tab for sound card information.

Once you find out who makes it, use a search engine to look for updated drivers. This probably won't fix your problem. You are better off reinstalling the demo first.

I received the following PM. It's contains some questions that will eventually need to be answered so here we go...



Hey! I saw you alrdy hack cod 2 demo(http://img287.imageshack.us/img287/...od2chams6ga.jpg) lol.. that was pretty quick. I know that PB won't come with Cod 2, they will probably do the same thing they did with CoD 1, but if you use a public hack at the beginning of CoD 2 and PB come out, do you think you will get caught? Or you will have to at least play 1 time CoD 2 with your hack, let say you know PB is coming out in this patch you could stop using the public hack and you will be fine?


PB will not be included with the initial retail release of CoD 2. There also has been no discussion of PB support whatsoever by Activision or IW. My guess is that they will do what you said and incorporate PB later (if at all). Any wise investor is going to check his profits before buying something unnecessary.

Since PB will not be released "out-of-the-box", you can cheat worry free from the first day CoD 2 is out (providing there are existing hacks). Later on, if you're using a public hack and the game has PB enabled, then you should worry. There is no way to record PB bans without PB. However, administrators will still be able to ban you if they don't like you. They could later enforce this ban with PB or with the game's included banning commands.

It's going to be one big free-for-all hackfest once the game is released. I will only release my CoD2 hacks if there are plently of existing ones out there. If someone's going to put water in the boat, a little more won't sink it.

D3D is a different animal than OpenGL, so many non-experienced coders will need some time adapting (or copy and pasting someone else's code).

I already reinstalled the game 2 times, and i kept getting the same message. After i click ok the CoD console comes up saying it could not find all these different things.

Are you using standard vid card drivers or running third party ones? I got a similar problem using Omega drivers, when uninstalled and put in the ATI drivers, problem was gone :)
