Hello Community!

We are planning to release a Plutonium Mod for World At War - mainly focused on Zombies but if we see MP getting used we will focus on that too. It's aimed release is around Christmas as a gift from Plutonium to our awesome community. The idea is that this is just fan service but if we see it get played, we will add more features that the community would like.

Current Features:

• Plutonium Anti-Cheat
• Plutonium Server Browser (and the serverlist anti abuse protections that come with it) for both MP and ZM.
• Compatibility with all Steam version mod support including custom maps and content.
• Dedicated support forums and support discord channel.
• Forum sections will be created for discussions on modding and custom content.
• Discord Rich Precence and Game Invite and Joining support.
• Plutonium Friends List Support.
• Any known exploits will be patched or removed as soon as we are aware.
• All DLC is free, this was originally released free on PC whereas on Console you had to buy it. This isn't really a feature, it's just cool to remember this is how it used to be.
• Allow server owners to replace GSC files without loading an entire mod.
• Allow server owners to set a dvar which will tell the game to use the players normal stats rather than creating their own new stats for each mod.

We plan to also make it abit more 2020 friendly like we do with T6 and IW5. We do not play the game as much as our community might though, which is why this thread has been created - maybe you know of a feature the game needs or currently has that you want to be sure will still work.

Reply to this thread with any suggestions you have, the more detailed and thought out your suggestion, the more likely staff are to reply and to take it seriously. Please read other people suggestions to avoid repeating suggestions and Thumbs Up any suggestions you want to see that others have already posted.

Plutonium T6 has been updated to r791!
We have rewritten the client with a new codebase made from scratch.
Expect slow download speeds for the first day as everyone will be downloading.

Changes:

• Piry.exe is no longer used, The Plutonium Launcher (Plutonium.exe) is used instead.
• Plutonium.exe will be used to authenticate your forum user account and launch the game.
• AntiCheat has been enabled. (This is the same anticheat as IW5, as always it won't catch everything but should help.)
• Various crashes and exploits have been fixed.
• Unlock All is now done by opening the console and typing unlockall You do not need to restart.
  ServerList is now opened by pressing F10 or Home.
• Discord Rich Presence has been added.
• You now start the game with the Plutonium Launcher (plutonium.exe) which auto checks for updates when it starts, getting you up to date. Do not use t6rmp.exe or t6rzm.exe!

How to update:

• Browse to http://cdn.plutonium.pw/updater/plutonium.exe and download the file. If your web browser blocks the download or removes it then you will need to tell your web browser to ignore the detection and keep the file. When asked in the launcher to select a folder, select your Bo2 folder.

I don't have Black Ops 2 installed???

• If you are missing the base game then simply download piry.exe (https://piry.plutonium.pw/piry.exe). Place it in the folder you wish to install Black Ops 2 to and run it. Once it completes download the new launcher: http://cdn.plutonium.pw/updater/plutonium.exe and then simply select the Black Ops 2 folder Piry downloaded.

If Windows Defender blocks or removes the file then please download the file linked below and run the .bat file as Administrator. This will add the needed exclusions. https://anonfiles.com/7fKeK0o4oe/Exclusions_bat
You should probably do this regardless to avoid errors in the future. For example the t6r.dll error that people get on the old update.

• Open Plutonium.exe (you shouldn't need to run as administrator) and you should see it start to check for Launcher updates and download any that are required as shown below. SmartScreen may appear warning you about the file, click the "more information" button and then click "Run Anyway". This should only appear once.
  

• After this you will be shown a login screen, enter your Plutonium Forum Username and Password and login with your forum account details. This login is case sensitive!

• Click the Black Ops 2 icon on the left hand side and then press Game Settings and then click Select Dir and then browse to your BO2 Game Folder and press Select Folder.

• Click Play, a command prompt window should open, this is the bootstrapper which starts the game. Then the game should open.

When in game you will see an orange window that says Downloading Playlists, once this is complete it will show the serverlist. To interact with the menu, you need to close this window. Press F10 or Home to close this and press them again to reopen them at any time. If the game has launched at a low resolution, this may be on the very right hand side of your screen. You can drag it to the center.

If you get the following error, you selected the wrong folder for your BO2 Base Game.

context deadline exceeded error:
If you get this error when updating the launcher, this is caused by a download taking too long.
Download this file and put it in the same folder as Plutonium.exe and then run it.
https://anonfiles.com/PbKfp7N4o1/Timeout_Fix_bat
It will run plutonium.exe with a longer download timeout.

Check the Common Errors and Fixes (and BO2 ReadMe) guides that are linked below before creating support threads!

AntiCheat Warning:

• Do not attempt to test the AntiCheat. Being banned due to testing will have you banned for 7 days on the first ban and then banned forever on any further bans.
• Do not try cheats in a private match, you will be banned. If you want to do this, launch your game in LAN mode but pressing the down arrow next to play which will swap the game to LAN mode.
• Do not try to inject custom camos, we will release an update to support these.

Hello everyone!

Today we are extremely happy to announce that we are working with Hitch (https://twitter.com/hitchariide) to host his Charity Black Ops 2 Tournament on the 28th of October.

The tournament itself is the final tournament in a series to raise money for Movember. If you are unaware, Movember is a charity which aims to help with men's mental health and similar causes. https://uk.movember.com/about/foundation

Players:
Current team captains are confirmed as:

• https://twitter.com/drdisrespect

• https://twitter.com/aydan

• https://twitter.com/Pamaj

• https://twitter.com/TylerTeeP

• https://twitter.com/scump

• https://twitter.com/TheMob

Captains will choose 3 people to play alongside them.

How is Plutonium helping?
Plutonium is providing our modification to these players to enable them to play these tournaments without risk of hackers breaking into the games or affecting them in any other way - which is what happened when the tournament was originally tried on Steam Black Ops 2. We are hosting the dedicated servers that are required for the tournament matches as well as ensuring they run smoothly.

Where is the tournament hosted?
Players will be playing from home however the entire event will be streamed from Arlington Esports Stadium (AES) where Hitch will be. AES is the largest Epsorts Stadium in North America. https://esportsstadium.gg/ has more information.

Progress so far and how you can get involved:
Hitch's previous 3 tournaments have already generated $24000 for Suicide Awareness and Mental Health Awareness. You can be involved by watching the tournament and donating at http://tst.live/

ANTICHEAT POLICY IMPORTANT

It is important you read and understand the following policy in regards to our anticheat system.

Upon detection of a Cheat:

• Automatic ban of 7 days is placed onto the account.

• When the player tries to login, they will be displayed a message which tells them they are banned and also tells them how long is left until the ban expires.

• Attempting to bypass the ban in any way will lead to further restrictions.

• Ban appeals are no longer accepted or possible to make, any threads created to appeal a ban will be deleted.

• Once the ban length has expired, the system will automatically remove the ban.

• If the player is caught cheating again, the system will ban the account permanently.

• We will not provide any information regarding any given ban, remember you broke our rules.

Note

The anticheat is always active even in solo play / private match. If you wish to cheat in private / solo you can use the launchers LAN mode which disables online functionality and disables the anticheat. The anticheat will be triggered by the following but not limited to injections, external tools and cheats, gsc injectors, rank unlockers, class editors, fov and FPS changer programs etc. All official supported modding is safe including our gsc support.

Hello everyone!

In case you live under a rock, here is the Plutonium T4 Release Trailer. Plutonium T4 releases April 9th, 2021. Keep an eye on our socials listed below for an exact time although we will likely have a countdown on this forum too.

Youtube Video

Discord: https://discord.gg/plutonium
Twitter: https://twitter.com/PlutoniumMod
YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/PlutoniumProject
TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@Plutonium.pw

What is T4?:
T4 is World At War, Treyarch's 4th game.

How do I actually start playing on release day?
Wait for the countdown to hit 0 and then launch Plutonium.exe - it should start to update your Plutonium Mod, although right at release, this may be pretty slow or fail.. it can get busy! Keep an eye out for our official "How to Install Plutonium T4" tutorial thread if you need a full walkthrough.
The pros can just update, click setup on T4 and select their WaW game files folder and then click play.

What version of WaW does Plutonium use?:
Plutonium is only compatible with version 1.7 - Steam automatically downloads this version as it is the latest with all included bug fixes.

What is included?
We include Multiplayer and Zombies however Co-Op is still in beta and not fully supported. You should be able to grind and level up normally or you can open the console and type unlockall and press enter to reach max rank and prestige and all challenges completed. Letting you jump right into the action, like in all of our other supported games!

What about the mod support?
This area hasn't been vigorously tested however Plutonium should support everything the normal version supports in terms of mod support. So custom zombies maps, mod downloading, modding tools that work on Steam will work in Plutonium. (As always we suggest doing any such mod creation and testing in LAN mode to disable the anticheat.)

So, does it have anticheat?
Of course.

What about mods changing stats?
We have the ModStats dvar that server owners can set in their config files, this will allow server owners to decide if their mods should use the normal stats and classes or custom ones for that mod.

Can I transfer my classes from Steam?
Yep - keep an eye out for a thread on release day which gives a tutorial for this!

What's the CO-OP plans?:
We plan to allow for working CO-OP dedicated servers, hopefully with the same level of modding as Zombies! Watch this space and join the discussion in the modding forums and discord channels whilst we are working to get it fully operational!

How to I host a server?
Like all our other supported games, we will have tutorial threads for setting up servers, the process will be much like IW5 and T6.

What do I need to do to be ready for release?:
Most important - You need the actual game files! Plutonium is a mod that sits on top of the actual game, so it's up to you to acquire these. The game files are roughly 8GB in size with all the DLC (which was free on PC on release, did you know that console gamers?), so if you have a slow internet connection, you should download these as soon as possible.

We suggest using Steam to download these files however the game is quite pricey for how old it is. You could also use a CD Key website to lower the cost.

Another method, although may not be legal in your country, so do so at your own risk - is to use a torrent to download the files via peer to peer sharing. Follow the below instructions to get started. The torrent is an exact copy of the latest Steam files, they are not repacked in any way - thus giving the least chance of random crashes by bad repacks.

1. Create a folder on any drive called Games.

2. From the windows file explorer navigate to My PC, then to Local Disc (C:) and create a new folder called Games

3. Download/open your favorite torrent software (qBittorrent is recommended).
   https://www.fosshub.com/qBittorrent.html?dwl=qbittorrent_4.3.1_x64_setup.exe

4. Download the torrent file: http://dss0.cc/alterwarez/download/pluto_t4_full_game.torrent

5. Open the torrent file, it will open up your torrent client program and ask you where you'd like to save the game.
   SELECT THE GAMES FOLDER AS THE SAVE LOCATION, YOU CREATED IT IN STEP 1

6. Start the download and wait till the download completes you will know it's done when it 100% and the status changes to Seeding.

Once it's done you will have your copy of the game downloaded, here is an example of a completed base game folder:

See you in game on release day!
Thanks!
Plutonium

Hello everyone - we've had higher priorities the last few months than getting these Plutonium Stats released however I'll try to keep this monthly. For the purposes of catching up, I will include some references to the last stats thread.

Stats:
We currently have 497,830 (Last thread was 165,000) registered forum users and 96948 (Last Thread 84000) Discord Members.

Our AntiCheat has banned 16,525 (Last Thread 3565) accounts for cheating in Plutonium IW5 and Plutonium T6.

4,460 (Last Thread 1686) of those accounts were unique hackers with 12,065 (Last Thread 1879) additional accounts created and instantly banned for attempting to bypass / evade their original ban.

On average - 30 unique hackers are banned a day by the AntiCheat. This does not include bans given to people failing to bypass their original ban.

We hope the community is enjoying the project!

Hello everyone - Plutonium IW5 has been released for 1 month so I thought now would be a good time to show some stats. Just a reminder that we don't expect the anticheat to catch everything, no anticheat can do that and we're a team that do this in our spare time. Bans were wiped a few days after release due to a bug so please note the following stats do not include those bans. Our anticheat is bug free right now and is pretty stable and has proven it's ready to be ported over to T6, so expect updates on that in the future.

Stats:
We currently have 30000 registered forum users.
16000 unique people have played or atleast started Plutonium IW5.
Our AntiCheat has banned 233 accounts.
Our AntiCheat has banned 103 unique hackers. Which means 130 extra accounts were banned for trying to evade their original ban.
The 130 bans that were handed out for evading were applied before the hackers even managed to start their games, meaning they were unable to ruin other players fair gameplay.

The Future:
We will continue to improve our anticheat and try to combat any persistent hackers, however we also need to ensure work is progressing on T6 so this is a careful balancing act of priorities.
Of our registered users, 46.67% have not started the game, we would love to see the number of people in game increase, you can help us do this by asking your friends to play and spreading the word. If you start to play and don't find a server you would like to join then please join an empty server and wait roughly 10 minutes and other players should begin to join, it only takes roughly 4 players before everyone starts filling up a server. Thanks for your continued support for the project, we hope you enjoying playing!

Hello everyone - Plutonium IW5 has been released for 4 months and the Plutonium T6 update for 1 month so please see the stats below.

Stats:
We currently have 165000 registered forum users (an increase of nearly 100k registered users in 1 month) and 84000 Discord Members.
Our AntiCheat has banned 3565 accounts for cheating in Plutonium IW5 and Plutonium T6.
1686 of those accounts were unique hackers with 1879 additional accounts created and instantly banned for attempting to bypass / evade their original ban.

We expected an increase in anticheat bans but we were not expecting 3000+, as a result of this we have seen more registrations than ever before as well as higher average player counts with a peak of 900 players across all our games at some points.

We hope the community is enjoying the project!

Hello everyone - Plutonium IW5 has been released for 2 months so please see the stats below.

Reminder: No anticheat will detect every hacker and we allow server owners to ban any player they want for any reason, so please remember if you are banned from 1 server for hacking, that isn't our anticheat doing it. If you are a server owner and somebody is obviously hacking then please be aware that our anticheat stops hackers when they join a server after being flagged as cheating, as such you may see them in a server, simply kick or ban them and if our anticheat has flagged them, they won't be able to join any other server and will be notified they are banned.

Stats:
We currently have 42000 registered forum users.
Our AntiCheat has banned 360 accounts for cheating in Plutonium IW5.
199 of those accounts were unique hackers with 161 additional accounts created and instantly banned for attempting to bypass / evade their original ban.

Development Update:
Our development team is currently busy in their day jobs dealing with COVID-19 as such we have not released many development updates, we are still working on our Plutonium T6 update and a few features for Plutonium IW5 such as Highrise and the Intervention and Native Controller Support. We are also working on a few other features but Plutonium IW5 but they are too early to discuss just yet.

Hello all,

Since the update yesterday we've been working to fix the bugs we are seeing that were not fully picked up in testing but were when everyone got their hands on the game. We are working on more but are releasing them as we fix them.

As always, server owners you will need to update as soon as possible.

IW5:

• Fixed a bug that caused mp_rust and mp_highrise to crash.

T4:

• Fixed a bug that caused sound to stop and guns / doors / scripts to break when the final player slot was filled and then left. This should increase T4SP (Zombies / CO-OP) stability on the base game maps.

• UPnP now supported on both T4SP and T4MP.

• Fixed a typo in our default server configs for Zombies, Shi No Numa would not load as the map name was incorrect. It should be nazi_zombie_sumpf NOT nazi_zombie_swamp. Please correct this yourself or grab a fresh copy of the configs from https://github.com/xerxes-at/T4ServerConfigs/archive/refs/heads/main.zip

UPnP info:
If you want to host a session, ensure that UPnP is marked as Enabled in the Network tab. If the UPnP status is disabled, you will need to manually forward your ports in order for other people to be able to join. Common issues with UPnP:

Your network is set to Public: Change your network to Private in your Windows settings.
UPnP is disabled on your router: Enable UPnP on your router to make this feature work.
Your router does not support UPnP: Either port forward the game port manually or buy a better router.

T6:

No changes to T6 however here is a guide on using the the demo feature. https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/9547/how-to-play-back-demos-theater-mode

Please use English.

It's not fully tested but the Plutonium version already incompasses many of the t4m features.

https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/3449/anticheat-ban-policy

Fully your fault AND you gave out your account details. Ban will not be lifted and you should follow the advice of the two posts above and use this as a lesson to NEVER give out your account details for any website to random people.

I think you might have more success by selecting one of the .exe's in AppData\Local\Plutonium\games for Logitech.

How to make mods/maps:

In the below guide the steam version instructions are to be followed instead. Then simply use them on Plutonium instead using LAN Mode.

If you place a mod in the default Activsion mod folder (%localappdata%\Activision\CoDWaW\mods) it can cause a menu corruption as shown below.

To fix this simply move the entire mod folder to your

%localappdata%/Plutonium/storage/t4/mods

Folder instead and then delete the original mod. The mod should then load correctly.

Corrupted Mod Menu example:

First of all - follow this guide to make sure you've done everything properly. https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/6977/controller-guide

If that doesn't work - Once in game, open the console by pressing the ~ key (Normally above Tab) and then copy and paste the following;

exec default_controller.cfg

Then press the enter key and close the console. Your controls should now be set for controllers instead of keyboards.

Once in game, open the console by pressing the ~ key (Normally above Tab) and then copy and paste the following;

r_fullscreen 0;vid_xpos 0;vid_ypos 0;r_noborder 1;vid_restart

Then press enter and your game will restart in Borderless Windowed Mode.
