I have two Falcons, one with RGH and the second with JTAG. Both are using Dash 14699 and FSD 2.2.725. The JTAG box is new to us and recently we've been playing CoD MW3 over system link and Kai.

As the JTAG box was new to us I didn't have any progress on MW3. My son was level 45 on the RGH box.

My son lost his gaming privilege for a week so I completed mission mode and some of the special ops while he couldn't play. It was driving him nuts that he couldn't play. :D The night before he lost his 360 I installed dashlaunch 2.32 to both of my boxes and set fakelive=true. Until then I hadn't played mission or special ops mode on my JTAG box so I had no progress there.

After he got the 360 back and we set up to play system link MW3 he became upset and accused me of deleting his level 45 progress and was now level 1. I hadn't messed with his profile but sure enough his profile was level 1. After trying several things I remembered that I had set fakelive=true on both machines. I disabled it on his and his level 45 progress was back. When I tried to join his system link game I got a weird message about xbox live. I then disabled fakelive=true on the JTAG box and was able to join his game but all of my progress was gone.

It seems that if fakelive=true then CoD MW3 behaves differently.

The fakelive plugin should only be active when it is required, it doesn't need to be enabled all the time.

I haven't used it myself but I have heard of strange things happening with certain games.

in fairness, fakelive was very much a "try it and see" affair upon its release. the readme was fairly explicit about that!
I wasn't suggesting that it didn't work correctly, only noting an experience that I had so someone else didn't have to go through the same process to find their "lost" progress.

fakelive isn't supposed to be used on games. I believe he said to turn it off before gaming. It was mainly for apps.
