Installation Setup
So if you're following along with this video, you should have a fresh install of Call of Duty 2. After you start the game it should look exactly like this. install on ssd...jajaja
Launch the game. Enter your name then click [OK] and [OK]. Next quit the game. And before we start changing the settings in the game, we actually need to quit the game first because changing some settings will cause your game to crash, so we need to change them outside of the game.
Config Editing
Navigate to the directory where you installed the game, then go to "\Call of Duty 2\main\players".
Inside the "players" folder open the folder with the name of the profile you created.
Open "config.cfg" with a text editor. Using Notepad causes no lines so preferably use another text editor such as WordPad, Microsoft Word, or Notepad++.

seta r_mode "800x600" seta r_rendererPreference "none"

Start up the game again. Then click on [Options] -> [Graphics]. There are a couple things to take note of here. Anti-aliasing needs to be off for ReShade to work, but ReShade comes with its own Anti-aliasing so you're not missing out. Sync Every Frame is a fancy way of saying VSync.
