unmodded sniper servers to join
I'm playing on a mac and am having a hard time getting into majority of the servers due to this annoying cod4i mod that seems to crash. I've ben doing research trying to fix it and am coming up nill, so I'm not just wanting to move on and play in some unmooded servers, since those seem to be working fine. any leads?? not sure how I can filter modded servers.. just looking for someone other than run&gun nonsense. thanks--

Well you have 2 major issues to deal with.

1) Youre trying to play a Windows game on a Mac. Since it is an older game and was left with many bugs, most people are now hosting with the fixed COD4 X servers. The advantages for us with Win PC is too great to go into, in the context of this thread. Suffice to say, that mod is probably interfering with your getting online.

2) Youre looking for a game style that is completely inconsistent with the COD genre. COD IS a run n gun game, so if that is non-sense to you, then you should probably look elsehwere for a game to play. This game is not for you. Minecraft perhaps?

It's trying to download a patch called cod4 x. But being a Mac not sure if it works.

May have to look it up and see if it's available for your Mac. It's a patch that fixes many issues players run into.



That said, kinda like above, a sniper only server that is not modded is hard to find.

I know a sniper server that does not run that patch but it's a high jump server. Believe it also runs a different mod but not sure. But it uses the stock maps. At most the mod just makes it so you can only use a bolt sniper.

killing crew, I appreciate the comments about mac vs pc, I came into the discussion knowing that Im playing on a machine that is viewed as the wrong machine in a gaming world, I agree. I was hoping for some, more in depth tips or resources instead of the never ending "pc is supirior" rhetoric.

As for as the COD genre, . I've been running and gunning in COD for years. I also know there are some harder to find, crouch only sniper servers for the older for distinguished folk out there. COD controls in a way that you cant find just anywhere, it feels good. Also, since servers can be customized in many different ways with rules, etc, you are actually doing a diservice saying that COD is strickly run and gun.

Next time, dont assume everyone with a mac question is an idiot who cant scratch their own nuts, but try and be helpful.

Agree with you blatmin. Cool that you actually know macs are not the best for gaming at the moment. But they can still play.

Like I said. A server I know is strictly sniper only. But it still uses the stock maps. dont think you have to download anything as far as mods. But like I said, they only allow bolt. Also it's high jump. Those don't require downloading a mod at all. I persoannly enjoy high jump servers. They add to the game. Especially being cod4 maps are not the biggest. With high jump you can get out of the normal playing area. As well as on top of buildings.


I don't know if there is a way to filter out mods. Not on my PC to check ingame. But you can go into settings and set downloading to no. This will prevent you from downloading anything.

You can check filters also when searching and see if there is something for mods as well. But not sure if there is.

So, proper answer I guess:

It's trying to install a community made patch called Cod4 X (where do people get that I from, no clue). However, this patch is only available for Windows (as both the developers play on there, and it has by far the biggest market share), and thus crashes on Mac. To play on those servers, you have to install the Windows version of the game on Wine. You can do this easily if you own the Steam version. Go to the Cod4 X forums for more advice.
