Call of Duty Error

When I try to play Call of duty on the multi-player I get this message:

Could not download main/oase.pk3 because autodownloading is disabled on the server.

Set autodownloading to No in your settings and you might be able to connect if you do have the file.



How do I do this? Is this something I can fix?


Someone please Help!

I think c:\program files\call of duty\main\oase.pk3
Should have come with the CD

Is this a legit copy of call of duty ?

The game CD? and activation code?

If so, then just re-install the game (ie un-install first - but you may lose all saved games)

System specs
Uninstalling normally doesn't delete saved files, but if you want to be sure, find the installation directory (default should be C:\Program Files\Call of Duty), go to the folder that says "main" and move the file that says "save" somewhere else.

And I checked the main folder, oase is not in there, so I assume the file is a mod necessary for certain servers, and for some reason auto-downloading is disabled. So he would have to search for the file, then manually download it and put it into the main folder.
