[COD4] MacOS 10.12.5 Upgrade Advisory for COD4 Customers

This is an advisory for any users enjoying our Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare Advantage Tool for Mac OS X, who have not yet updated their machines to the latest version of macOS Sierra.

Edit 17 June 2017

  • Crashes are now resolved. If you’re experiencing either crashes of COD4 or the no-recoil & anti-spread features aren’t working for you, please contact us.

Note: Customers enjoying our Counter Strike Global Offensive Advantage Tool are not affected. This only applies to the COD4 Advantage Tool.

Summary

We're seeing an increasing incidence of the following behaviours, after users have upgraded to MacOS 10.12.5:
Anti-spread & no-recoil is no longer functional.
Call of Duty 4: MW Multiplayer crashes immediately after the COD4 Advantage Tool detects the game.
This behaviour does not affect all users on macOS 10.12.5. Only 3 users have reported this issue at the time of writing, and we cannot reproduce the issue on our test machines.

While the first symptom may be manageable for some users, no workaround has yet been found for the crashes, meaning the COD4 Advantage Tool may not be usable until a solution is found or the upgrade to macOS 10.12.5 is reversed. With the help of the users affected, we are partway through troubleshooting both symptoms and are getting closer to the root cause.

Action Items

If you are experiencing either of the two symptoms with your COD4 Advantage Tool, please contact us. If you're seeing game crashes, you can use the following tutorial to provide crash reports, which may help us further pin down the exact cause of this: https://news.macgamehacks.com/2016/12/providing-crash-reports/

If you have not yet upgraded to macOS 10.12.5 and are using our COD4 Advantage Tool, we recommend that you avoid upgrading to the latest macOS for the moment if possible.
