- After downloading Enhanced SCDA Online, extract the contents. You will then have an Enhanced SCDA Online folder, which you can place anywhere you like since it's portable.
- Run the game executable,
SCDA_Online.exe
in the System folder to begin playing.- If experiencing an error on startup, try running
DXSETUP.exe
in theInstallers\DirectX
directory. - If experiencing a crash while loading into the main menu, ensure you have a recording device, such as a microphone or headset, plugged in.
- If experiencing an error on startup, try running
- A script has been included to cap the game's frame rate at 60 FPS during gameplay and menus, while loading screens remain uncapped. This can be configured by editing
Enhanced.ini
in the System folder. It is highly recommended to keep it at 60, as both movement and aiming can feel worse at higher frame rates.- While loading screens are no longer endless with this script, if sound is playing during them, they may last longer and could potentially result in disconnection if left on the loading screen for an extended period when connected with other players.
- If you hear sounds during a loading screen, such as lobby music when the game gets started or ambient sounds from a map when returning to lobby, press
Ctrl+Alt+Delete
, then pressEsc
to force the game to load. Loading should work normally if no sound is present on the loading screen.
Many mice now offer polling rates of 1000 Hz or higher. However, in SCDA Online, higher polling rates may cause issues with your mouse aim. If your mouse allows it, try setting the polling rate to 125 Hz through software.
Ubisoft discontinued Double Agent's servers in June 2016. However, the multiplayer is still playable using a custom server.
Starting with Enhanced SCDA Online v2.2, the game is updated with a new experimental custom server for online play. No third-party programs are needed to play online.
- There is no account database, so all online accounts are temporary. Do not use real passwords, as these accounts are not intended to be secure.
- To log in, enter your username, set the password to
123456
, and set the CD-Key:SC4-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
.
Currently, Leaderboards and Squads have not been implemented due to not having an account system in place.
Important
If you downloaded Enhanced SCDA Online v2.2 before November 14th, 2024, you'll need to redownload the game to reconnect to the online servers, as the custom server has moved to a new domain.
