I'm going to put known questions/problems with their answers in this thread.
So take a look at this thread before posting in the CoD MW2 Help section.

How do I update CoD MW2 to the lastest version?
Launch Steam, view, games list, right klick MW2 MP, properties, updates, set to ''Always keep this game up to date''.
Note: This doesn't work on cracks.

Why is MW2 Liberation not working?
BECAUSE THAT SHIT IS GAWN. READ THE STICKY

I'm trying to hack to a lower lv. than I am but it doesn't work.
You can't hack to a lower lv. It won't save. You need to reset your rank/stats and then hack to the rank you want.

I want to rankhack or/and unlock things but I don't want to get banned.
Don't use your rank hack/unlocker in game. Use it on the menu/barracks and you should be fine.

I need a CD-Key, are there any keygens?
No, Mw2 keygens do NOT exist. No one works. 50% of them are virusses, the other 50% are fail.

Can default classes be changed?
No, not possible (at the moment).

How can I inject a .dll?
Follow this tutorial.

Why can't I download? Read this first.
1. You Must Activate your account
Please visit this thread on how to do that
(If you are already activated you will not be able to visit the thread)

2. You Must have 50 posts
When you join you are a leecher, from what I have heard you need to have 50 posts until you may download. This will decrease the number of, well, leechers. But this DOES NOT mean you can spam. That will lead in a ban.
EDIT: From what I know, (vBulletin) only downloads posted AFTER this rule was in affect will be affected. So don't be surprised if you can download some stuff and not other stuff....

You may ask why this is in affect and it is for the safety of our users, reduction of spam, and leeching to other websites.
Please re-direct anyone who asks to this thread...
If you find these rules harsh or cruel please leave the site...

Mini-Map Radar/HUD UAV Fix

Does your radar/minimap look like this?

1. MW2 Configuration Ultility by donutdan 1441
If you are using Steam, all you need to do is run the application. It will automatically fix your radar! (Very easy and recommended, no installation required)
Same thing with alterIWnet!
If you are using aIW you will need to specify your Cod directory upon application startup

2. Delete/Edit your config_mp.cfg
Navigate to your Cod Directory and to the folder 'players'. Then delete the file.

If you do not want to completely reset your settings then just open your config_mp.cfg
And find "compassSize "1"
Then you're done!
Alternatively you can enter compassSize "1" in the console for a fast fix.
