COMMON QUESTIONS:

-It's too difficult!!! It's possible play it with default difficulty?

Yes, in v6.8U files you can find Vanilla AI Fix with the file you searching for.

-I see black textures all over the levels, why this?

You probably skipped the V6.8U main pack, required to use Nvidia patch; once installed you need to apply the Nvidia Venom Shaders on it in base folder.

-The game crashes anytime I die, how can I solve this?

If you prefer play RTCW 1.41 in 4:3 res use default engine with retail CD or Steam/GOG installation, or use 1.42d unofficial patch and iortcw for widescreen; in every case you need to delete "hunkusage.dat" file from "Main" folder, then choose one of the available autoexec.cfg to improve perfomances and graphics and avoid any kind of crashes in future.

-How can I play widescreen?

You need to use 1.42d unofficial patch or iortcw source engine (for SP/MP), if you only need for SP mode you should use Knightmare 1.42d patch, iortcw for both SP and MP modes.

What is the difference between the two versions?

Nvidia version has different materials, cause vanilla Rtcw and custom advanced reflections are invisible with latest Geforce drivers. I fixed them with different functions, but it looks a little worse than standard v6.0.

Hey good to see this is still being developed. I have Venom v2.5 from way back can i just override it with 6.0? Or must i uninstall v2.5 first?

Its the only mod ive ever felt the need to have for RTCWS and im excited to try an updated version. Thanks.

I am very happy to find this great work, RTCW is one of my all time favourite! I have two problems, maybe you can help?
After installing your Mod, explosions do not longer contain fire. If i using the panzerfaust, i just see the black dust, no fire. And my enemys wount explode, they just fall down dead.

Explosions are untouched, same of default. Some enemies don't explodes due for the more energy they have.

Is there any way to confirm that the mod loaded correctly in game? I'm struggling with making it work; or rather, am not sure what to look for that should change with it as the first most obvious thing would be widescreen support (Through the 1.42d patch), but that isn't available.

Tried applying it to both, Steam and GOG version of RtCW and neither showed me anything to confirm correct installation :/
