Im 12 and what is this?
Well, basically AlterIWnet is a free copy of MW2 with it's own servers. This TuT will allow you to run modded patches onto it like DT Blackrain, Mossy V8 ect.
*NOTE*
You CANNOT play online after this without re installing AlterIWnet
Well anyway, lets get started.

[multipage=Step 2: Patching the Game Files]
Since the latest version (at the time of this writing) does not support mods, you need to downgrade it to a lower version.
Download You must login or register to view this content. archive and extract it somewhere. Once it is extracted, it should look like this:
Now, drag everything into the folder with iw4mp.exe.
*NOTE*
If you plan on playing online again with this, make a backup. Make a backup anyway.
Now test this by running iw4mp.exe
It should say "This build is no longer valid to play online"
This is good.
[multipage=Step 3: Mod Loader]
You need to download and un pack Mod Loader. You can download it You must login or register to view this content.. Once extracted, it should look like this:
Now again, place all those files into the iw4mp.exe folder.

[multipage=Step 4: The patch]
Now you need to find a patch. You can download the pc patch of DT Blackrain You must login or register to view this content. (All credit to DerekTrotter and others).
Extract the blackrain folder into the iw4mp.exe folder. Should be like this:
alterIWnet:
blackrain\common_scripts
blackrain\maps
blackrain\we
Open MW2_Modder.ini in the AlterIWnet folder. I suggest using Notepad++ to do this. It will look something like this:
Now modify it so it looks like this:
*NOTE*
If you changed the name of the folder, make it that name.
Save the file and your good to go!
Step 5: Loading the patch into the game
Start 'LoaderX.exe' (the one in the AlterIWnet folder) as a administrator. Leave it. Now start iw4mp.exe. Once it has loaded, press alt + tab to go back to the desktop and on the LoaderX program, press Inject DLLS. LoaderX looks like this:
Once you have pressed that, go back to MW2 and go into a private match! Start the game and hey presto, your running a modded patch!
The controls for DT Blackrain are:
-5: Enter/up
-N: Down
-3/4: Left and right
-R: Back (Exit)
[multipage=How to Convert Patches]
HOW TO Convert patch_mp.ff to a PC Patch
You need to download You must login or register to view this content. (credits to BucN I think) and extract it. Have it ready on your desktop. Now open it as admin. It should look like this:
Now press open and navigate to your patch_mp.ff
Then press PS3 to PC or Xbox to PS3 respectively.
A folder should appear in the Converter folder called gscdump, this is where the PC files are. You need to copy all those files to your blackrain folder for the AlterIWnet folder.
To use again, delete the gscdump folder.

alot of people probably don't know what alterIW is. you could get more attention by briefly explaining what it is and what good it could be used for with modding.
such as, if your making alot of edits in a day and shit just isn't going your way, maybe getting alot of errors /facepalm - well you could just convert patch for alterIW and check there.
