You will need to run your CoD4 server from the command prompt with a line like this:

Code: Select all

iw3mp.exe +set dedicated 2 +set net_port $port +set net_ip $ip +set ui_maxclients $maxplayers +set sv_maxclients $maxplayers +exec ./server.cfg +map_rotate
Replace $port, $ip, and $maxplayers with your chosen values.

I tried to add this info to the end of the target on the desktop shortcut and I get this error: " The name "C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\iw3mp.exe" +set' specified in the target box is not valid. Make sure the path and the name are correct.

the same situation in the console comand
:?
