I DL'd your HoB mod form yer site and it installed perfectly and I followed your Read Me instruction on installing, how not to put it into the main folder but rather simply in the CoD folder. And then I launched the MP CoD game and clicked on Mods and then selected (hbv03 something like that) the mod and it launched fine and the main menu showed up with the title HoB, I thought great.
But, when I searched for servers hosting HoB mod games there was only 1, even after I did a Refresh List and when I joined this game it game me some kind of ever and so I wasnt able to play. Am I doing something wrong or not doing something I am supposed to? Help Plz.

You created these? And, I noticed you live in USA under yer profile, and yet, you display a Canadian flag, are you a Canadian born American??
I just expanded the exe files then made them into sitx files. I'm not Canadian, I just liked the image when I found it.
As for the not finding any servers, I found tons for both the Revolt and the HoB mod. I'm thinking the reason you couldn't play was you didn't get the update for HoB.
Mod Patches
**Update**
I just checked the Revolt site and the Revolt mod has been updated to .15 as a full download, meaning no patch to update from .11. I will add this update tonight.

Thanks Mono, yer right it was the update i was missing.
Ok, some new problems I discovered in HoB. Its more like some kind of glitches. I found a server playing under the revolt mod and when I was playing in teh game, I discovered that my name was not |MP|Nomad as I typed it into the options but instead it appeared as |PM|onAdm, totally screwed up.
So, I thought to myself that maybe since its the mod, I have to re-bind all my control keys again, b/c I also noticed that my binded keys to select commands was not working at all. For instance, I keep my scroll up as to select primary weapon and 4 on the keyboard for pistol and I discovered after 10min of playing around with the mod that these two keys were opposite.
So I re-checked in my options to see if my control keys were still the same and they were, but in the game they were giving me the oppsite result. So I basically had to trick the mod, by keying in 4 as my primary and scroll up as pistol, so that in the actual game when I scrolled up it gave me what I wanted which was primary wep, and when I selected 4 it gave me pistol.
So I think things have to be worked out, just thought I would let you know. Thanks for the help.

Monoman, the Revollt .15 update helped for me to gain access to more servers. I played only one game today and find that the mod makes the game laggy as hell. I was getting about 5-10 fps when at CQB and from far it was about 25-30 fps. Overall, revolt I dont like very much, I am gonna give HoB another try and I'll report back.

I played in the same server that turns your name backwards. Although, my keys were still the same.

OK, I just finished playing HoB and I have a few observations and a few questions, Monoman.
1) I had the same problem again, my name gets screwed up when I join ANY server, but then seems to correct ITSELF while I play about 10-15min later. (no biggy really)
2) I played on 2-3 different servers and I noticed that every server doesn't allow Cross Hairs support, is this host controlled or does the HoB mod simply not support crosshairs?
3) I noticed that the weapon sounds are different, but still good.
4) You get a new weapon for each Country you play for.
5) and again, my keys are all different for HoB, but for Revolt, they stayed the same as Normal CoD:
For HoB, I set my keys up in Options like this:
1st weapon = Wheel Down (although in the game it bring up my Pistol)
2nd weapon = there is NO 2nd weapon in this mod (again, I don't know if this is host controlled or b/c the HoB mod does NOT support it - every server I have been to, you CANNOT have a 2nd weapon). BUT, you can pick up other weapons but you lose the one you already have and the one you pick up only carries a max of about 10 rounds, basically don't switch unless your current weapon has no more ammo.
Pistol = Wheel Up (although in the game it bring up my 1st weapon)
Granade = 1 (this is the only one that stayed the same as I always use)
My conclusion, I like HoB much better than Revolt, b/c the graphics are still great like normal CoD and it runs smoother than Revolt, just a little slower than normal CoD, but still smooth.
Revolt, basically is like DC mod for BF 1942, just turns the game into a modern warfare with new weps. But, I also noticed the graphics are not that great either.

5) and again, my keys are all different for HoB, but for Revolt, they stayed the same as Normal CoD:
1. I'm not sure what the problem is with the name. I know that if you host your name does not get messed up. Also, I noticed when my name was changed it wasn't really changed. For example, if I used chat my name would show up correctly.
2. The mod has disabled crosshairs.
5. Not sure on the problem with the keys since I'm not experiencing it. You could try locking your default.cfg file. This might fix your problem. Also, I think the part about being able to have 2 primary guns is controlled by the mod.

Go to File/Get Info on the file and click the lock option.

I was playing on a HoB server tonight and my name changed around again. At first I thought I could change it back by going into Options but my name was correct there. My name did go back to normal when the game started a new round. This leads me to believe that the names only change if you join in the middle of a round. As a result I'm thinking the name change is an option set on the server or its the mod. I also notice I wasn't the only player with a screwed up name, so its not a Mac thing.

Just like I said Monoman
. I also thought the samething for my key commands, but they just execute a different result even though I set my keys a certain way in the Options menu, so it some sort of conflict or glitch, no doubt.

OK, ppl you are gonna love me if you like to play BF 1942. I have found 2 more mods for this game (for Mac), they are called:
1) Eve of Destruction (EoD)
2) Desert Combat Extended
Comments on 1 & 2:
1)Eve of Destruction works and seems like fun. It adds new maps. Also, its still based on WWII.
2)DC Extended for some reason doesn't seem to work. It loads but then the screen goes black and does nothing else.
Desert combet exstended does work.... but is very very very buggy.
BTW.. did I say how buggy it was?

When your saying these mods are working you are referring to actual multiplayer games?
Even though single player is basicly multiplayer with bots. I can get EoD and DC extended working in single player but no joy in multiplayer.

Yes I mean MP, it does work. However, I was not able to get DC Extended to work, but I also havent re-tried.
