Best Settings MW II

Display settings:

Display Mode: Fullscreen Exclusive – Best for latency reduction
Display Monitor: Choose your primary display with the highest refresh rate
Display Adapter: This is just your graphics card
Screen Refresh rate: Maximum for your monitor (144hz, 240hz etc.)
Display Resolution: Set this to 1080p – If you have a very high-end GPU, you could use 1440p, but 1080p will be better for FPS. 4K is not recommended as it will significantly impact FPS.
Dynamic Resolution: Off – this can change the resolution of the game at unexpected moments, which can be distracting.
Aspect Ratio: Automatic (16:9)
V-Sync Gameplay: Off – V-Sync on can cause increased latency
V-Sync Menu: Off
Custom Frame Rate Limit: Custom
Gameplay Custom Frame Rate Limit: 300
Menu Custom Frame Rate Limit: 90
Out of focus Custom Frame Rate Limit: 30
Display Gamma: 2.2 (sRGB)

Focus Mode: Off

Quality settings:
Quality Presets: Custom
Render Resolution: 100
Upscaling / Sharpening: FidelityFX CAS (Note: A bug may reset this option for some players)
FidelityFX CAS Strength: 65 – This will make the game sharper without impacting FPS much at all.
Anti-Aliasing: SMAA T2X
Anti-Aliasing Quality: Normal – Setting this to Low will improve FPS marginally, but the quality improvement of Normal is probably worth it.
Video Memory Scale: 90 – You want to use the max VRAM available.
Texture Resolution: Normal
Texture Filter Anisotropic: High – FPS barely affected by this higher setting
Nearby Level of Detail: Low

FIX disconnected from STEAM

1. Quit the game
2. Exit Steam
3. Right-click on the Steam icon "Properties - Compatibility"
4. Check the box "Run this program as an administrator"
5. Click "Apply"
6. Click "OK".

Fix stutters and lags + fps boost

1. Go to C:\Users\*your username*\Documents\Call of Duty\players
2. Open the options file.3.cod22.cst and options file.3.cod23.cst by any text editor
3. Ctrl+f search RendererWorkerCount
4. we are looking in Google for how many cores your processor has. For example, i9-12900kf
4. The number of Performance-core cores, in our case the number 8.
5. Enter the number 8 in the RendererWorkerCount line in the text editor. Save and close the file.

Everything is simpler with amd. The goal is for the game to use only half of the cores available to you. Therefore, if your processor supports hyperthreading, which almost all current generation processors do, just use the number of available cores (on AMD and up to the 11th generation of Intel) or the performance of cores (on the 12th and 13th generations of Intel).

Examples:
AMD Ryzen 5 5600X has 6 cores and 12 threads ➜ RendererWorkerCount:0.0 = "6"
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 has 6 cores and 12 threads ➜: RendererWorkerCount:0.0 = "6"
AMD Ryzen 9 3900X has 12 cores and 24 threads ➜: RendererWorkerCount:0.0 = "12"

cod doesn t have optymalization

i prefer to set textures on medium cuz i don't see difference between high and medium (at least on viewmodels)

This guide is so borderline generic I just don't even know.
>"Fullscreen exclusive" brother, this game is DX12. Not only it's not a REAL thing, but there's no difference between fullscreen exclusive and borderless in almost all modern games.
>"video memory scale" 90 NO? This engine can't handle VRAM properly and depending on the user's card, they should lower that value until the game feels/runs better. It even fixes the phantom and random packet losses.

"5. Enter the number 8 in the RendererWorkerCount line in the text editor. Save and close the file."

You can also change the settings in the taskmanager

I don't see anything actually for the file options but you can also look at your task manager cpu for the CPU info. I apparently don't have any text editing software? not sure what's up with that.
