NOTE: You must legally own Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare to run this mod. Cracked/Pirated versions of the game are NOT supported.

• Clone the Git repo. Do NOT download it as ZIP, that won't work.

  You can run

  git clone https://github.com/xifil/iw8-mod.git --recurse-submodules
  

  or

  git clone https://gitlab.com/xifil/iw8-mod.git --recurse-submodules
  

  depending on what Git you would like to use, however you always need the --recurse-submodules flag.

• Update the submodules and run premake5 vs2022 or simply use the delivered generate.bat.
• Build via solution file in iw8_vs2022.sln.

GitHub Actions automatically builds the DLL file on each commit, you can find the latest build of iw8-mod here.

iw8-mod supports these versions of Modern Warfare:

• 1.20.4.7623265 (ModernWarfare & game_dx12_ship_replay)
• 1.38.3.9489393
• 1.44.0.10435696

Support may be coming for:

• 0.01.2.7089334
• 1.03.0.7209368

Keep in mind that only 1.20/replay fully works "online" right now, all other versions don't get past the main menu and crash after ~2 minutes due to anti-tampering mechanisms put in place by Infinity Ward.

The same XInput9_1_0.dll can be used for all the versions as it auto-detects the version based on the executable and calculates the signatures based on that.
