We are pleased today to annouce the release of competitionMod v1.9

comMod is the premium in war modifications for Call of Duty: World at War.

This release concentrates on weapon balancing even more than previous versions allow the whole range of weapons to be useful. Further security enchancements aswell as more user customisation is also now possible.

With support for Map Pack 2 maps and much more, v1.9 is certainly improving the comMod era.

V1.9 Changelog :-

- Changed plant & defuse points from 10 to 3.
- Changed timeout countdown from seconds to minutes & seconds
- Changed team names on score screens such as Marine Raiders Eliminated to generic names such as Attack Eliminated

- Added further protection against invalid values on certain settings improving standardisation and disabling the use of certain cvars which are "allowed" to be changed by a user but result in cheat type effects such as the removal of large objects etc. Thus blocking commands such as modellimit, dobjlimit, sizecull & compassplayerheight/width outside normal ranges with the introduction of obscuring the screen and annoyance of repeated sound until the settings are corrected.

- Added support for Map Pack 2 maps, mp_kwai, mp_stalingrad & mp_docks (with removal of thunder sound on mp_docks & waterfall sound on mp_kwai)
- Added stock updated glitch/stick fixes to Shrine, Suburban, Makin, Makin Day, Roundhouse, Downfall, Asylum, Subway, Seelow, Outskirts, Hangar & Castle
- Added a fix to stop a glitch with both rocks on Shrine being completely see through when leaning in to
- Added score display when you kill, defuse, plant, teamkill etc
- Added the ability to use the sawn-off "attachment" on the double barreled shotgun offering greater spread and power but with less range
- Added "snipers" only and "snipersgp" only mode (eg; /rcon commod_mode public_10 snipersgp)
- Added the ability to select Stielhandgranate as a primary grenade
- Added hit damage inflicted & location information in pre-match ready-up mode
- Added comMod Graphics quick menu accessable by B then 5 in game. Allowing the ability to change values such as :-

r_normalmap Unchanged, Flat
r_specularcolorscale 0, 1, 2
r_blur 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1
