The 1.2 Patch is the last official update released for MW3. It is necessary if you want  to  game  at  the  MSN  Gaming  Zone.   This  patch  includes  a few   maps previously  not  available  in  multiplayer  mode  along  with  some  fixes  and enhancements. A reboot after installation is recommended.

MW3_v1.2_maps.exe (File Size 161KB)  
MW3 was later re-leased as MW3 Gold which is already updated to the 1.2 version. However, two maps that were included with the stand alone 1.2 patch were omitted. This program installs the "DURGAN CITY" and "SPACEPORT" maps.

MW3CP_mega_map_pack_v0.3.exe (File Size 777KB) 
A various selection of popular maps for multiplayer games. This map pack also includes "ice maps" which are worlds with extremely cold ambient temperatures. Ice maps virtually eliminate the heat generated by weapons... making the use of heatsinks unnecessary. The Mega Map Pack has been checked by Finn's MW3 Map Manager for errors. Consider this download a precursor to the MW3 Map Registry.

mw3patch (File Size 2.19MB) 
This is the "no CD" patch that everyone talks about. It will allow you to launch and play MW3 without the use of the game CD. It replaces your Mech3.exe file with a hacked version. It is recommended that you backup your existing Mech3.exe file by renaming it or moving the file to a backup location. Use at your own risk. Full installation of MechWarrior3 required. Please be aware that this particular version has been reported to lag XP machines in multiplayer mode. It also asks you to DELETE the original .exe file. I recommend backing it up instead but I can't say if the lag problem is still an issue.

pmpatch (File Size 2.05MB) 
A "no CD" patch for the Pirate's Moon Expansion. This program was created by a different author but operates under the same premise as the MW3 version. It replaces the game's .exe file so that you can launch and play PM without the use of the game CD. Use at your own risk. It is recommended that you backup your existing .exe file by renaming it or moving the file to a backup location. Full installion of the Pirate's Moon Expansion required.


MW3 Community Project Enhancements
By Staff Member: Finnegan McCool
Mech3MPMissionEditor_1.1.00.exe (File Size 2.2MB)  
This program is designed to allow you to edit existing MechWarrior 3 multiplayer mission files for the purpose of creating new multiplayer missions. It only allows editing of mission properties and does not provide for editing terrain or other 3d items of the game. Mission properties are: visibility, temperature, weather conditions, daylight, boundaries, respawn points and MFB locations.

MW3CockpitUtility1.0.00.exe (File Size 1.6MB)  
Selection feature allows for you to choose which mechs to modify while keeping others "stock". This utility will also allow for the cockpit to be restored without having to reinstall the game.

MW3mpMapManager_1.0.00.exe (File Size 2.7MB)  
Don't you hate scrolling through 300+ maps when hosting a game? Chances are that you only need a few. What if you could "turn off" the rest of the unused maps without uninstalling them? Now you can! Pre-select what maps you want to use before launching MW3. Later, when you just want to play instead of host... make your maps available by turning them ALL back "on".

FinnsMapSet1.exe (File Size 180KB)  
These maps have the same basic properties as the singleplayer campaign maps. Each has mission boundaries with 12 nodes each, and functional radar map overlays. All maps have 2 MFB points except those in the c4b and t1 worlds. All spawn points were individually tested to make sure they were satisfactory. The fluctuate property helps simulate cloud shadows for those who play with lighting effects turned on.

FinnsMapSet2.exe (File Size 144KB)  
These maps occupy the large area of maps c1m1 thru c1m4. Each map has 12 MFB points that also behave like nav points by auto-selecting the next MFB/NAV point when reached. I have given each MFB/NAV point a unique name that is displayed in HUD. Five of these are OP: Able, Baker, Charlie, Dog and Echo. I have surrounded each MFB with an event boundary that triggers a sound file when the boundary is entered. The five mentioned above, use the "Op point (name) reached" sounds. These enhancements should allow creative players to develop campain-like scenarios/rules for new types of play on the zone.

MW3TeamMapSetup.exe (File Size 9.1MB)  0.9.36 Beta  
A first step in upgrading multiplayer mode to single player mode abilities. Create true team vs. team games with team respawn points and team MFBs. Choose from seven pre-arranged battle scenarios. Options can be toggled on or off to allow for FFA games. Future battle scenarios will include: Hold and Defend, Capture the Flag, Attack and Destroy, Battle Waves and "Co-Op" Campaigns.

FinnMW3RadarMap.exe (File Size 105KB)  
Corrects the scale and offset values for the MechWarrior 3 radar maps. The patch does not alter gameplay.   The  effect  will  be  most  noticeable  when  viewing targets near stuctures and landmarks on the large radar map overlay.

MechTexturizer_0.7.19.exe (File Size 1.85MB)  0.7.19 Beta   
New texture import-export tool. Features a thumbnail view of all skin textures in MW3 and PM. Importing and exporting will be as simple as a right click and copy/pasting. Tree view allows for easy navigation through indexed mechs and skins. Future versions will enable custom packaging of user's edited skins for ease of distribution. This Utility may also sport a "live update" feature to download new user submitted skins.
