[Tutorial] How to make XFire detect AlterIWNet's MW2

[MiseryExe]

Hello everybody.

Since the 1.3.37a update from AlterIW, people are having trouble making XFire detect MW2 or getting the in-game function to work.
Here's a lil tut to help you out.

1st Step: Open the file xfire_games with NotePad. The file is located in ProgramData->Xfire



2nd Step: Locate Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer on the list. (To be easier press Ctrl + L and type 5993, which is MW2's number.)



3rd Step: Replace The MW2 Multiplayer text with the following.

[5993]
LongName=Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer
ShortName=codmw2m
LauncherDirKey=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Activis ion\Modern Warfare 2\Path
LauncherExe=iw4mp.exe
DetectExe=iw4mp.dat
Launch=%UA_LAUNCHER_EXE_PATH% %UA_LAUNCHER_EXTRA_ARGS% %UA_LAUNCHER_NETWORK_ARGS%
InGameRenderer=D3D9
InGameFlags=USE_PRESENT|USE_SWAPCHAIN|ENABLE_MOUSE |USE_DINPUT_MOUSE

4th Step: Save the File

5th and Final Step: Start up XFire and let it search for the Games that are installed.

If you did all the steps correctly MW2 should be detected and up for some frags.

I hope I helped with this tutorial.
