How to enable hardcore?

[Canadaka]

Is there a server-side hardcore mode in CODWW? If so how does one enable it, is it the same config command as COD4 (set scr_hardcore "1").

If there isn't a global server command, what are the individual commands to mimic a hardcore mode, is there any standard? I found this in another post.

set perk_flakJacket "25"
set perk_flakJacketMaxDamage "25"
set perk_armorVest "75"
set perk_bulletDamage "40"
set perk_explosiveDamage "25"
set perk_fireproof "55"

I can't find a post or thread saying how to enabled hardcore or if it exists. I know in CODWW the client can choose to make there GUI hidden or not, which was part of hardcore.

Here are the settings 6FR uses to best imitate Hardcore from CoD4.

set scr_player_maxhealth "30"

set scr_hardcore "1"
set ui_hud_hardcore "1"

set perk_armorVest "22"
set perk_bulletDamage "12"
set perk_flakJacket "25"
set perk_flakJacketMaxDamage "25"
set perk_fireproof "25"
set perk_explosiveDamage "10"

hmm, you run hardcore on AND turn player health down?

gotta check this out, tnx :]

CoD4 (in stock form) would automatically set health to 30 in hardcore mode,
and 200 if running oldschool ....

This demo uses 1 dvar for all.

[sgTsTuFz]

yah i wouldnt think you'd need to reset those perks when running hardcore mode.
i've tried running playerhealth at different numbers bcoz i likes my grafix

From my testing, if you leave flak jacket at default and lower player health, the perk is useless, you won't survive any blast.

[sgTsTuFz]

Here are the settings 6FR uses to best imitate Hardcore from CoD4.

set scr_player_maxhealth "30"

set scr_hardcore "1"
set ui_hud_hardcore "1"

set perk_armorVest "22"
set perk_bulletDamage "12"
set perk_flakJacket "25"
set perk_flakJacketMaxDamage "25"
set perk_fireproof "25"
set perk_explosiveDamage "10"

so again, Mduke - why are you turning hardcore on AND lowering player health ?

[MDuke]

Hardcore in CoD:WaW doesn't lower player health. You have to do it manually.

[Jokerhv]

Ok, I have tried both settings and MDuke's settings feel like the COD4 hardcore settings. Everyone that join my server enjoys this type of hardcore.

Good info MDuke.

[sgTsTuFz]

i cant believe you guys are missing out on the chance to advertise your server :p

[Huddex]

Will the server stay ranked this way?

[MagicMan]

does it?

[Jokerhv]

You can adjust alot of items before losing XP.
The Tanks and Dogs are one thing I have seen get adjusted without issues.

[MagicMan]

Here are the settings 6FR uses to best imitate Hardcore from CoD4.

set scr_player_maxhealth "30"

set scr_hardcore "1"
set ui_hud_hardcore "1"

set perk_armorVest "22"
set perk_bulletDamage "12"
set perk_flakJacket "25"
set perk_flakJacketMaxDamage "25"
set perk_fireproof "25"
set perk_explosiveDamage "10"

with the above settings, are you leaving health regen on?

set scr_player_healthregentime "5"

set perk_flakJacket "25"

set perk_explosiveDamage "10"


how does this work? is high number better (stronger) exp. if i change set perk_armorvest "22" to set perk_armorvest "50" it will make juggernaut perk much more stronger?

[Kinsman]

We have imitated H/Core fairly successfully, the last bugbear is that by reducing player health, the dogs kill people way too easily.

whats a good way to overcome the dog problem?

[Pendragon]

The dogs can be dialed back, you can make them weaker and have fewer of them.

The thing I would like to sort out is juggernought. It's a pisser when it takes a full clip at short range to kill someone... I have made close range headshots and have them turn round and shoot me!!

[Kinsman]

// Dog Settings
set scr_dog_count "8"
set scr_dog_hardpoint_interval "180"
set scr_dog_health "100"
set scr_dog_max_at_once "4"
set scr_dog_time "60"

what does the hardpoint interval do?

[HulaHal]

// Dog Settings
set scr_dog_count "8"
set scr_dog_hardpoint_interval "180"
set scr_dog_health "100"
set scr_dog_max_at_once "4"
set scr_dog_time "60"

what does the hardpoint interval do?

This is what we have in our config. Default (I believe) are in (). We left the interval and the max dogs setting alone.

// Dog Settings
set scr_dog_count "4" //this how many are released (8)
// set scr_dog_hardpoint_interval "180" //this how long you have to wait until they can be released again (180)
set scr_dog_health "50" //point to kill (100)
// set scr_dog_max_at_once "4" //if you release 4, if one is killed another is released keeping 4 on the map at once (during "dog_time) (4)
set scr_dog_time "30" //how long the dogs stay (60)

[Noxious]

These settings are wrong... If you set armorvest at 22 it makes the juggernaut almost invincible... You need to set it up around 80...

So how much health does Juggernaut give?

[Enos Pork]

So anyone had any luck lowering preformance of the juggernought yet?

[sgTsTuFz]

i'll try this when i get home .. i'm running the hardcore settings listed in this thread, and i noticed after i got my juggernaut perk, that it takes the 357 magnum 4 shots to the head to kill a juggernaut head !!

only difference is run player health at 40

[Noxious]

To decrease the power of juggernaut you need to set the
set perk_armorVest "" to about 80.. That brings it back down... trust me...Tried and tested

Roger that! Armorvet = Juggernaought. Great thx!

[MDuke]

Sorry for the incorrect info guys, I wasn't sure if it was % based, and I guessed wrong, it is.

You should be able to leave it at default and it will have the same comparative affect at 30hp as 100hp.

[Server789]

I have followed this thread closely. Now that you sorted out the Jugernaut issue could someone post all the changes I should add to my files to make a good HC server like cod4??? also name exactly which fileI am suppossedt paste them into Please ( I am guessing config.cfg). Thanks Much.

[|TC|foofighter]

Just wanted say thanks - these settings are excellent - have been hunting high and low for these since we started trialing the beta - many thanks again! :cool:

Foo

[Noxious]

Here are all of my settings for the cfg file.. I do not have the configs files separated at all... It you want to try these out just copy and paste into your cfg file. If you want to see how these settings are in action my ip is 69.31.15.55:29460 and the that server is almost always populated.
