German Language Fix
- Takes the Nazi dialogue from the German release of the game and patches it over the other localizations' German dialogue. This fixes both some broken phrases and syncing/cutoffs of the dialogue.
- When using a language different than English, rename the files
localized_english_pakuo03
to the one corresponding your language.
Play German Version in English
- adds the English language files to the German version which does not offer any other language.

Widescreen resolution
- The game does not automatically adjust the aspect ratio to match widescreen resolutions.

Field of view (FOV)
- FOV adjustment is necessary at wider aspect ratios than 4:3.
- Use CoDUO FoV Changer for multiplayer.

Frame rate (FPS)
- In order for any of the fixes to work, Vsync needs to be turned off from the game's settings if your screen's refresh rate is less than the required FPS, which is the case most of the time. The setting for Vsync is listed as "Sync Every Frame" under the Performance tab in the game Options and needs to be set to "No".

Remapping | Software, such as the Logitech Gaming Software, is required to map controls to a mouse's side-buttons or any other additional buttons. For Steam, the executables TestApp2620s.exe and TestApp2620m.exe are needed, in addition to CoDSP.exe and CoDMP.exe to make a workable profile. For United Offensive, look for CoDUOSP.exe and CODUOMP.exe . |

Mods
Extreme Mod 2/Lite 2013
- A mod which adds new sounds, textures and more.
- The original site no longer works. Here are the direct download links: Extreme Mod 2, Lite 2013
HD Texture Enhancement
- Upscales all the Textures in the game up to 4x using ESRGAN
- Makes the environment a little more clarified on a big screen
- Only supports the base game
- Slightly washes texture details
- Crashes the game on Pathfinder, put [mediafire.com/file/rmr3nv3gtveojnm/zcod7.pk3/file zcod7.pk3] that contains a fixed set of textures for the level. Conflicts with skyboxes that come in a separate archive.
- Noticeably increases video memory requirement, you'll need a 2 GB card to play at 1080p resolution
- Any degree of Anti-aliasing Transparency in NVIDIA Control Panel will cause a bizarre parallax effect of multiple blended copies of a texture notably at an angle, which is especially noticeable with this mod. Best to completely disable it for the game for the best result.
JoJo Ultra FX Pack
- A mod that adds blood while also adding other effects in the game
United Fronts
- Mod for United Offensive. Adds new models, textures, weapons, and sounds, new missions, and CoD 1's campaign.
