Here are some tweaks I found online.

speedfps.cfg (http://www.ambushsite.com/zwarrior/speedfps.cfg)

1) Copy the file to the "main" directory in the CoD4 folder.

2) In the game hit"~" and then type '/exec speedfps.cfg" followed by "/vid_restart", which will restart the graphics engine to apply the changes you just made.

That should do it.  Otherwise just edit them into your config_mp.cfg file which is located in ..\players\profiles\%playername%

 ex. "D:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\players\profiles\ZWarrior"

Here is the actual settings in the cfg file:
seta r_drawSun "0"
seta r_drawDecals "0"
seta r_rendererPreference "0"
seta r_aaAlpha "0"
seta r_detail "0"
seta r_picmip "3"
seta r_picmip_manual "1"
seta r_picmip_bump "3"
seta r_picmip_spec "3"
seta r_distortion "0"
seta r_dlightlimit "0"
6seta r_fastskin "1"
seta r_ignorehwgamma "1"
seta r_ingamevideo "0"
seta r_mutliGPU "1"
seta r_outdoor "1"
seta r_texFilterAnisoMax "1"
seta r_texFilterMipMode "3"
seta r_zFeather "0"
seta cg_brass "0"
seta cg_blood "0"
seta cg_marks_ents_player_only "1"
seta fx_marks "0"
seta fx_marks_ents "0"
seta fx_marks_smodels "0"
seta sm_enable "0"

Anderson is bad.  faster is good.

More tweaks.  This time from our friends at SAE:  http://www.afsae-squad.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=992
Quote
/seta com_maxfps 0 (0 is unlimited but causes weird effects sometimes with some cards.) Watch your averages and set to just below average to even things out.
/seta cg_drawfps 1 (everyone should know this, choices are 0, 1, 2, 3)
/seta cl_connectionattempts 30 (this and following command fixed most connection issues for me)
/seta cl_connectiontimeout 1000
/seta pb_sleep 500 (supposed to fix stuttering in airstrikes and such, but I never had that issue, so experiment.)
/seta rate 20000 (seemed to help smooth close in firefights a little default 25000)
/seta com_hunkmegs 512 (I set this to half AVAILABLE system memory, less in vista as it's a hog for resources even when sleeping. I have 2 gig, so I use 512)



/cl_maxpackets 100 = help getting a better ping, i get at least -10 ping in everyserver with this commands.

/r_polygonsetScale /r_polygonSetbias = i've seen a little difference in fps playing with these commands, i put them two at 0 value.
For those who was wondering how to show fps:

/cg_drawfps 1

For getting a better field of view :

/cg_fov 80 = default is 65 so i guess 80 is way better but have not tested if decrease fps.

*EDIT: i've tested and it did'nt decrease much fps, maybe someone with lower fps can tell us, after testing a few more round, game play is way more competitive but feeling is a little bit different.

Also:

/r_rendererinuse 0
and
/r_rendererpreference 0 = Shader 2.0 helps a lot getting more fps but myself i cant set it lower than Shader 3.0, i guess the probleme is in my graphics cards drivers but for those who have older graphics cards, try it.

the most important one : /cg_drawlagometer

shows the connection quality

And here are some tips in video form (very helpful):

Well, I thought I'd pop on the forums and see how things are going. Tried to play some CoD4 over my break but my video card can't handle it any more on my desktop. Apparently it must of had something fried in it because it cannot handle any high end 3D applications but somehow still works. So no CoD for me :(

So has everyone stopped playing COD4 Modern Warfare now?
Title: Re: COD 4
Post by: Mr_Anderson on September 29, 2009, 02:48:06 PM
Nope, I've actually been playing it lately. Found a neat server with a mod where you level up and get a new gun every 3 kills. If you knife someone, thats an instant level up but if your knifed you lose a level.

Its great when there are a ton of people playing.

I need to get back into playing again, but without the mods, thank you.

Post by: Mr_Anderson on October 01, 2009, 10:27:57 PM
I've been playing on one without mods as well but when there are a decent amount of people on that server I hop on it for some non stop killing.
