COD4 Settings

[SD]

Just installed COD4 on my new laptop, game runs fine etc but I can't select high detail in some of the graphic settings, can only cycle from off-normal. My laptop far exceeds all the system requirements for this game. Any ideas?

Graphic card driver update or directX update.
AMD/ATI:

Code: Select all

Or is power problem. Check Control Panel - Power Options

If you need COD4 commands / cvars check COD4 cmd and cvar list thread.

Thanks! I added you to the whitelist/VIP on all servers, so you should be immune to auto-kick or admin ban.

Yes, we need to upgrade, it will reach bw limit in a few days, then it may shut down temporarily -- in short, we need few more donations to avoid that. It also affects US FFA Quake 3.

Something else about COD4, how do you actually get on any of the servers?! They're all full 24/7 (at least when I check) and I haven't had a game yet! I take it there aren't any "hidden" seats for admins?!

good point -- that happened to me when i tried to get on a while back.

No, we don't have any slot reserved because game reports less slots then to clients and it can mix up few things. Servers usually have few slots free, so it's no problem.

About this (original issue) I did some research and it seems "normal" is the highest setting offered. Most games let you go from something like low/normal/high/extra - seems this is not the case with COD4. Normal is high. Just what I found so far. Still looks good even with "normal".
