What was done
CoD4 Rewrite is a reimplementation of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare multiplayer built on the Bevy engine. It requires an existing game installation to function, as it contains no original game data, maps, or assets.
CoD4 Rewrite is a reimplementation of the multiplayer component of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare developed using the Bevy 0.19 engine. The project does not include game data; instead, it reads maps, models, and textures directly from a user's existing CoD4 installation. The repository provides a Launcher.exe that manages game updates and execution. The project features a custom fastfile loader for decompressing .ff zones and parsing IW3 asset streams, alongside an interpreter for the original menu system. Additional functionality includes bot support with learned-aim pipelines, online private matches via a relay protocol, and support for optional content from Black Ops, Modern Warfare 2, and World at War. Development commits frequently credit Claude Opus 5.5 and Claude Sonnet 5.5 as co-authors. Users can report bugs via an F10 interface, which captures screenshots and diagnostic data. While the project supports various gameplay features, it notes that existing gameplay limits regarding challenge progression still apply. Further details are available at the project repository.
Reproduce it
Download the repository and run Launcher.exe to download the latest build. Ensure a valid CoD4 installation (patch 1.7) is present. Alternatively, use 'cargo run --release -p game' to build from source.
