@JonVeltri1 That can happen if CoD HQ isn't actively running, at least on the BattleNet version. The program seems to check if the HQ is opened before it allows BO6 to launch.
Otherwise, there might be differences between platforms/stores , and I don't use Steam so I can't test there
[Tutorial] PLAY BO6 EARLY ON PC (BYPASS TIMEZONE)
(1)
- Make sure preloaded content is installed.
- Start "Call of Duty", entering the CoD HQ (as normal)
- Open PowerShell and run the command: `Get-CimInstance Win32_Process | Select-Object Name, CommandLine | findstr "sp24-cod"`
@Silveriix Though, I'm unsure if they will ever even exist. We don't entirely understand the CoD program yet. They might release soon or just when the game officially releases for our regions
@Silveriix Yes, good question.
Try looking for the multiplayer exe version of Bo6. It will likely be "mp24" or "cod24" or something and located somewhere in the Call of Duty folder.
If you find any .exe files with that text, try launching them the exact same way you did for sp24.
@Silveriix Nice to hear it works!
Doesn't seem like other modes work yet, as the file's fundamentally haven't released for all regions (including mine) quite yet (at least so it seems). Single player seems to be it for now.
@George_Editor_@TRE_MONSTER_ Updates steps: Everything you need to do is to run:
& "C:\Program Files (x86)\Call of Duty\_retail_\sp24\sp24-cod.exe" +uid hdeyguxs3zaumvlgvybm2vyc
If "sp24-cod.exe" doesn't exist anywhere on ur system, then I don't know how to help
@derigged You could potentially find the UID from "codCrashHandler.exe".
Run:
Get-CimInstance Win32_Process | Select-Object Name, CommandLine | findstr "cod"
Any of these processes can contain the UID. Then, find "sp24-cod.exe" and launch it with "+uid" and ur UID.
@TRE_MONSTER_ This is for BattleNet.
But if you're on Steam, try running the same command you see for "sp24-cod.exe" but remove all preload arguments entirely, which could potentially allow the game to enter into Black Ops 6.
@derigged Ensure the Cod HQ is opened and inside the menu where you can choose games and such, and that the preload content is there.
Then try the raw command here:
Get-CimInstance Win32_Process | Select-Object Name, CommandLine | findstr "sp24-cod"
(2)
- Copy the code which appears after `+uid`
- Run the command: `& "C:\Program Files (x86)\Call of Duty\_retail_\sp24\sp24-cod.exe" +uid FOO` where "FOO" is the code from last step
- Close CoD UQ
- Done!
