< li id=»step5″>Загрузите контент еще раз.
При новой загрузке ошибка больше не должна возникать. Это решение относительно полезно, но может работать не всегда.
Загрузить многопользовательский пакет другим способом
Этот альтернативный метод может быть ключом к исправление ошибки. Для этого процесса вы используете Microsoft Store.
- Перейдите в Microsoft Store на Xbox.
- Найдите многопользовательский пакет.
- Ищите список, в котором обложка игры.
- Выберите вариант установки.
- Примите и установите многопользовательский пакет.
- Попробуйте сыграть в CoD Modern Warfare.
В этом процессе нет ничего особенного, кроме ожидания. Вот почему так просто исправить код ошибки PILUM.
Очистить MAC-адрес
Чтобы устранить любые несогласованные сетевые данные, попробуйте очистить MAC-адрес. Известно, что он помогает устранить код ошибки PILUM.
- Нажмите кнопку “Руководство”.
- Перейдите в раздел “Настройки” меню.
- Выберите “Настройки сети”
- Нажмите “Дополнительные настройки” и “Альтернативный MAC-адрес.”

- Посмотрите, появляется ли по-прежнему код ошибки PILUM.
Это приводит к ваши сетевые данные снова совпадают. Таким образом, снижается погрешность.
Сброс настроек Xbox Series X/S
Сброс к заводским настройкам должен быть последним средством, когда ни одно из вышеперечисленных решений не работает. Сделайте резервную копию ваших файлов перед попыткой полного сброса настроек. Таким образом, вы сможете вернуть свой прогресс после переустановки всего.
- Нажмите кнопку Xbox на геймпаде.
- Перейдите в “Профиль & Система.”
- В разделе “Система” выберите “Информация о консоли».
- Выберите “Сбросить настройки консоли”
- Выберите сохранение своих игр и приложений.
- Продолжить сброс настроек.
Если сброс к заводским настройкам не работает, возможно, вам придется выполнить еще один сброс и удалить все данные. Это очистит вашу консоль, но также может удалить код ошибки PILUM.
Исправление ошибки в Warzone одинаково
Все приведенные выше решения будут работать. для Warzone, потому что эти две игры являются частью одной и той же игры. Поэтому пробуйте каждое решение, пока не добьетесь успеха.
Мы надеемся, что Activision исправит эту ошибку и удалит ее из файлов игры. Заставить все работать может быть непросто, особенно когда речь идет о сбросе настроек.
Вы в деле?
Загрузка игры только для получения сообщения об ошибке без официального поддержка разработчиков хромает. Помимо этих решений, игроки могут сделать не так много вещей. Пока Activision не будет работать над кодом, эта ошибка может появляться время от времени.

- Problematic MAC address – This problem can also be caused by an erroneous Alternate MAC address, as it turns out. Several impacted customers have reported that removing the stored Alternate MAC address and restarting the console resolved the issue, allowing the machine to use the default MAC address.
- Corrupted files – Another cause for this error could be some corrupted files that make the game not download every file that it needs. This is causing the packages to be missing, making the game unplayable. If you can’t find the missing packages anywhere, you should do a factory reset to get rid of the corrupted files. We recommend you keep your games and apps when you restart them.

All you have to do is when you try to play COD Modern Warfare and you encounter the error code PILUM, go to COD Warzone and select it. You have to play a quick match, so play a game until you die. After the game has finished, go back to the main menu.
All the files that you need in order to play COD Modern Warfare should start to download. It will take a while because the files are a decent size, but after they download you should be able to play the game without problems.
In case you have tried this and the downloadable files do not appear when you go back to the main menu, go try the next method below.
3. Uninstall Modern Warfare and Warzone content (disc only)
Another possible fix that players recommend is to try to completely uninstall all COD Modern Warfare and Warzone content. After that, you will insert again the disc but your console has to be on offline mode for this method to work.
Note: This method can be only done by players that have the COD Modern Warfare purchased physically because if you have the digital version you can’t insert the disc that you don’t have.
All you have to do is to start by uninstalling all Modern Warfare and Warzone content. When you are done with that, go to the Network Settings inside the Guide menu of your Xbox and go offline. Now insert the disc and boot COD Modern Warfare from it while still in offline mode. Now all Modern Warfare content should start to download.
Wait until all the content is downloaded, then go back online and download the remaining content that is prompted to you to download. Confirm that you want to install the remaining items, then wait until it’s done.
After the files are downloaded, you should be able to play both games without any problems.
In case this method didn’t work as well, check below the next one.
4. Clear the alternate MAC address settings
In some circumstances, the error code PILUM could be fixed by going to the Xbox One console’s Network settings and removing the active Alternate MAC address. After doing this and restarting the console, some affected users claimed that the problem was rectified. When the system restarts, it should utilize the default MAC address, which in most cases resolves the problem.
In case you don’t know how to do this, here are the steps you need to follow:
- Access the Settings menu from the main Xbox One dashboard by selecting the vertical menu on the right or left (depending on your settings).
Accessing the Settings menu of your Xbox console - After that, select the Network tab from the vertical menu on the right, then from the right-hand pane once you’re inside the Settings menu.
Selecting the Network Settings of your Xbox console - Once you’ve done that, you have to select the Advanced settings tab, and after you need to access the Alternate MAC address menu. Look through the list of available options inside the Alternate Wired MAC until you find Cleat, then select it and confirm the decision to clear the current Alternate MAC address.
Confirming that you want to clear the Alternate MAC Address - Restart your console after the Alternate MAC address has been reset, and verify if the issue has been rectified once the next boot sequence has been completed.
If the issue has still not been fixed and you still can’t play COD, check the last method below.
5. Reset your console
If the error code PILUM persists after following the steps above, you may be able to remedy the problem by performing a factory reset on your Xbox console. This action will result in the resetting of any files associated with your operating system, as well as the deletion of any data that has been compromised.
All you have to do is to reset your Xbox console, but you have to keep your games and apps. After the console boots back, the missing packages should become available to download.
Here are the steps you need to follow in order to reset your console:
- To access the guidance menu, press the Xbox button (on your controller). Go to System > Settings > System > Console Info once you’ve arrived. Select the Reset console menu and hit the A button to open it once you’ve gotten into the Console Info menu.
Starting the reset process of your Xbox console - Choose Reset and keep my games & apps once you’ve gotten into the Reset console menu.
Resetting your Xbox console but keeping the games and files - Wait till the procedure is finished. Your console will resume automatically after it’s finished.
- When the console boots back on, you should be able to see the available packages somewhere. If not, launch the game to see if that will make the missing packs visible. When you see them, make sure to download every one of them.
- After the missing packages have been installed, your error code PILUM should be fixed.
