I read the Manual, but I find no Information about installing Files and use it for GameCreate

I copy the file into the callofduty4-folder but i cannot start the server.
The Comandlines shows:

What happens if you start the process manually via the same command line? Watch the window - apparently its starting, but crashing shortly after.

Hi it shows following:

Check that the executable its trying to start exists in the path its trying to start it from.

The iw3mp.exe and the other files and folders are in \callofduty4

Then I'm not sure why you get that error.

Perhaps you need dependencies (Eg, the latest MS Visual C++ Runtime files) installed.

Hi,

@ Andres:

@ fluk:
I dont have the d3dx9_34.dll on my server. Must I have that file?

Andrew · Mammoth

I don't know the dependencies for the game off hand, you should contact the game publisher for more information.

Maat,
yes you must have this file inside windows/system32.
If you try to start a dedicated server manually without this dll, it dont start.

I have a W2003 and need to download this dll to start the cod server.

Also, install punkbuster,
