metal_scum Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 some of my friends are playing cod on 1.7. If I install 1.7, is there any way i could revert it back to 1.6 so that i could play on the =F|A= server? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiGhT Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 what is patch 1.7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators daredevil Posted June 19, 2009 Administrators Share Posted June 19, 2009 Give this a shot: 1. Make sure you have enough hdd space as this will take approximatly 6.4 gigs of hdd space. 2. If you have a partitioned hdd i recomend puting the copy you are about to make on another hdd partition. but it is not mandatory you do so. 3. Now go to your directory where your cod4 is installed ie; c:programfilesactivisioncall of duty 4-modern warfare. "default". 4. Select the call of duty4-modern warfare folder then right click and copy. in the same window "if your not installing on another partition" paste the folder.Now you should have 2 call of duty4-modern warfare folders. 5. Now rename the copied call of duty 4-modern warfare folder to 1.7. 6. Now open the new folder named 1.7 and look for a green icon with a star in it with a 4 in the lower right hand corner named "iw3mp" select this icon and send to desktop, and rename 1.7. 7. Now if you havent downloaded the patch now is the time. 8. Install the patch to the 1.7 folder directory ie;c:program filesactivision1.7 "default" 9. Now the icon on your desktop named 1.7 will get you into the 1.7 servers and you can open your cod4 1.6 the way you normaly do. Make sure you take back up of your profile since rank is stored on local PC inside your profile.

Loki Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Heres a ? Why are we still running the 1.6 patch on the server anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators daredevil Posted June 20, 2009 Administrators Share Posted June 20, 2009 Heres a ? Why are we still running the 1.6 patch on the server anyway? Because we all play on 1.6? Don't tell me u knew from 1.7 that F|A TDM KILL BOX exist on 1.6 and u registered on forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 killbox was one of the first servers I played when I started playing cod4 online. I actually installed the patch, but missed the server sooo much that I reinstalled cod just to go back to 1.6.... I was just wondering why we were lingering on the 1.6 patch instead of moving up to 1.7. I'm not really knocking it, since I love playing against most of the people that hang out there.

thundercunt Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I think we need to go to 1.7 lots of people on there now! I am showing more than 15500 servers! isn't that why we are using 1.6 because the lack of people on 1.7? Not the case anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w!key Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 ah always helpful thanks dare Let me know if it works or not. I haven't tried it yet. But i was about to do it since someone asked me to fix their cod 4 server and i was not able to test it after i fixed it.. since it was on 1.7. I just tried it and it works, the downside is your XP does not seem to update between the two installs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators daredevil Posted June 21, 2009 Administrators Share Posted June 21, 2009 You mean with 2 installs it doesn't update in both? or it only updates in one or it updates in both with respect to time played in each? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w!key Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 If you are playing the 1.6 version, you gain Xp in only the 1.6 version. If you are playing in the 1.7 version you only get XP for that version. I have only had the game one day so I don't know for sure what the other differences may be, but that is what I noticed right away. It appears my slot 2 weapon setup went from 1.6 to 1.7, but I don't remeber if i set up that weapon before i copied the folders and I'm too tired to try it again tonight. 1.6 screenie 1.7 screenie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milli vanilli Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 that will be fixed when we get another server up and running... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiGhT Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I think we should all move on to 1.7 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
