My game worked fine for 2 hours or so and it randomly crashed on round 27.

In same boat, same code, tried plutonium and steam versions, tried full screen and windowed, tried admin rights, firewall allowing, testing different host, moved game install to different drives, lower graphics, same aspect ratio across all players and still nothing. We do change our FOV and FPS on both Plutonium and Steam versions, but I doubt that's the issue.

Same. I'm not sure if the install I have is borked (my buddy just copied his game files over to my computer), but we've had this issue on two different sets of computers. I think this has to be a bug Edit: Supposed update fixed this here: https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/35971/bo1-consistently-crashing-early-game-on-zombies/6

It turns out I was trying to use the T6 config instead of the T5, but now that I have installed the correct config, I see the heartbeat confirmation on the server, but I am unable to find it on the server browser, I frankly am confused on how to port forward, I am looking in netgear and its a bit confusing, but then I dont know how actually open the port and use it for the server.

@Ston3Cold Thanks for sharing , it worked

This is a bug on Plutonium. You can find a fix for it (for your own solo/private games and your servers) on the forum

The custom games document states for T5MP, you must be in an ongoing match in order to be able to invite your friends: https://plutonium.pw/docs/custom-games/#t5

@GuilhermeMGG, I tried that command multiple times and it didn't seem to work. I'll just delete this current profile and create a new one. Thank you for your assistance.

@Hadi77KSA Holy Shit it FINALLY worked.. Bruh you really gotta be a fucking IT engineer to make this game work it's insane.. There's simply NO WAY I would have found the BO1 FF Explorer by myself and realized i could use it to extract these files into a new clientscriptss folder i have to create in the appdata pluto files.. So basically the game was missing _zombiemode_dissolve.csc and _zombiemode_weap_tesla.csc So thanks a lot, i haven't played yet but at least I can get to the main menu now, it was such a hassle that I preferred abandoning and keep playing on steam. This morning I decided to give it a try and thanks to you it worked (not thanks to the staff or devs who despite being extremely used to working with BO1 code and files visibly couldn't figure it out, well i mean, it's not like they even tried anyway lol) So if someone ever has this issue in the future it's pretty simple once u know what to do : Install https://www.itsmods.com/forum/Thread-Release-Black-Ops-FF-Explorer.html Go to C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Plutonium\storage\t5 and create a folder named "clientscripts" Open BOFF Explorer, click "open files", go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Call of Duty Black Ops\zone\Common (or anywhere you installed the game if not via steam) and select common_zombie.ff Once loaded, click on the "clientscripts" branch and now you can right click on _zombiemode_dissolve.csc, choose "extract file" and extract it in C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Plutonium\storage\t5\clientscripts (which is the folder you just created earlier) Start the game, if it works then it's good, but if like me you still have the same error message but with a different file (for me it said that _zombiemode_weap_tesla.csc was missing too, I repeated step 4 but extracted this one instead and now the game worked. I was visibly the only person on this entire planet to have this issue, I guess other people had it but also aren't tech savvy (like me) and just gave up instantly seeing that there isn't a single solution for it online anywhere. Thank you again @Hadi77KSA for your very precious help there's just no way i would have figured half this shit out by myself, and despite not being an expert, i'm pretty comfortable with computers and basic gaming troubleshooting, so I can't even imagine for regular people with less experience how basically impossible it is to fix
