As always, mods and custom maps in CoD for Mac create lotsa problems, to say the least...in HoB's case, I have used the built-in installer and then, when I try to join a game or open server, the program returns me the following message (or something like that): "wrong reference for the pk3. file...cannot find file zzz_blabla_map"...
Does anyone know how to settle such problem?
All files are inside the hod folder, and I have chosen the mod "hod"...what gives?

It's a little unfair for you to give this mod a two star rating because you don't have some custom map some server is running, don't you think!?!?If it says you don't have file zzz_blabla_map, then that means the server is running a custom map, and you don't have it installed. That has absolutely NOTHING to do with this mod and it's quality.
Mods and custom maps do NOT always cause problems with CoD, unless you don't know what you are doing. If you have problems installing and running mods, again, why is that HoB's fault, and deserving of a two star rating?
You are supposed to rate the QUALITY of the mod, not how much trouble you had using it. Thanks.
If you can launch the mod, and see it's special CoD Menu screen, then it is working as expected. Any further problems you get about missing map files has NOTHING to do with HoB and should not be reflected in it's rating. You need to go find that map file, somewhere like CoDFiles.com, and install it yourself. You should then be able to play that map.
