You really need to read the readme file of this one, especially this bit:

Currently we have no certificate, to sign the driver files, so you have to start windows vista/win7 with "F8" and select "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement"

You must also change the contents of the game.txt file to point to CoD's launcher.exe. Finally, my config.txt file consisted of the following (note the typo in 'TRIPPLE'):

[enabled settings]
SETTING_TRIPPLE_BUFFER
SETTING_VSYNC

[disabled settings]
S_ETTING_FORCE_SSAA=2.0
S_ETTING_LIMIT_FPS=30.0
S_ETTING_FORCEWARP
S_ETTING_FORCEREF

all that just for vsync!? I like Vsync but ill pass until they get it sorted LOL

I generally don't like vsync but using head-tracking software in this game results in bad tearing. I doubt it's a high priority for fixing either. It is a lot of hassle, though.

The tearing with TrackIR is spoiling an otherwise reasonable performance for me. It's not too bad over water but over land it's a tad unpleasant.

Let's see what the next updates give us...fingers crossed

So is it working for you, Major V? Vsync is no longer working for me despite above (I swear it was yesterday!) I hope it is not a conflict or requirement with Fraps/nvidia/d3doverrider...

No, actually it's not. I was still trying out some different configurations, but so far nothing has worked. And I have an ATI 4870X2. I have used TOMMTI before and know that it can work on my system with certain applications, but so far no dice on CoD.

Vsync is really never worth it unless you are getting over 60 fps all the time and I think not many people are doing that in this game yet. Tearing is distracting but not as distracting as stutters and low fps.

Try maxing out smoothing in Trackir software (50). Also it looks like vsynk works for me when I force it in ATI Tray Tools for my 4890. 25-30 fps but smooth and no rearing.
