[vampiejay]

ok i have cod4 server and have 2 private slots trouble is i can't or don't know how to use them i entered /connect 193.47.83.170:28935 +password darkwind into console but could not get on there came back as server full so really i don't know what to do any help would be much apriciated. and yes that is the actual password left it in so you guys could try for yourself. so i i know it will work when the answer comes back;)

Try moving the password before the IP. That is how it is done from the broswer.

[vampiejay]

so essentally be /connect +password darkwind 193.47.83.170:28935

Try using

/connect 193.47.83.170:28935; password darkwind

[vampiejay]

kk will try that but need to wait for server to fill up

wil let you know either way

[vampiejay]

yes works fine thank you
second part of this is there a way to attach this to the exe so you don't have to enter console.

[Daboys]

yes, copy your MP shortcut and:

As well as the /rcon login password you can put the login in your shortcut target line as well.

"C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\iw3mp.exe" +password **** +connect ***.**.***.***


That will connect you into a private slot to a specific server.

ok to confirm /connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxxx; password xxxxxxx is the string to paste into cosole
and "C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\iw3mp.exe" +password xxxxxxxx +connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxxx is how to add it to your shortcut might be an idea to create new shortcut and rename it to private slot. connect.

[Daboys]

Your console string is incorrect. The password must be before the IP.

Yes, call the shortcut Private Slot, I do - :)

i seem to join ok with that after the ip tbh so maybe it doesn't matter
