activate unlimited ammo?

[Froschi]

Hi,

I`m a COD server newbie and I`d like to know if it is possible to set in the COD server:

1.) Unlimited ammo ? (in MOHAA no problem with dmflag-settings)
2.) Faster disappearing of the dead bodies?

Many thanks in advance

Unlimited ammo would simply require editing the weapon *_mp files.

As for the dead bodies, you'd have to alter one of the functions in a .gsc file governing dead bodies.

However, if you look at CoDaM (it's the CoD equivalent to MAM for MOHAA...if you remember it), you have the ability to control both features.

Okay, the weapon-files are included in the PK3-Files.
Which tool do I need to edit them?

And refering CodaM: Which file do I have to edit and which program do I need? In MOHAA I simply edit the .cfg-Files but in COD the codam.cfg and hammgoodies.cfg-Files dont have an editable form for me because of the squares and a lot of other symbols... :dis:

I installed successfully CODAM and set the scr_noplayerbody-value to "1". But the bodies are still on the ground...I dont understand it, because I get the values: codam_version=1.2 and codam_session=1, so CODAM runs successfully....

Thanks

Open *.cfg files in WordPad; it'll properly format everything.

As for the dead bodies, please post this issue in the CoDaM support forum as Hammer will see it and be able to help. I remember reading something from him there about a problem with the dead body routine being the of a problem with CoD itself; posting there will help clarify the issue.

That said, I set that cvar to 0 and then use a lower valud in the delay cvar; eg:

set scr_noplayerbody 0
set scr_deadbodydelay 5

Works for me...

Hey,

thanks for your help 8-)

Wordpad, yes, that`s it, because I used only the Windows Editor....

My fault was that I first started the server.cfg and than the codam.cfg, so for the first map CODAM was not activated...wrong order!

Now the bodies disappear....but I use

set scr_noplayerbody 1

and not noplayerbody 0. The information in the codam.cfg-File also shows that the value "1" makes dead bodies disappearing.

But I have still the UNLIMITED ammo problem:
Although it is possible to set the ammo values UNDER the standard settings, I cant set the values HIGHER than normal.

What have I to do?
And how can I remove the text "codam 1.2" in the left corner during gameplay?

Thanks for helping me

Sorry, CoDaM doesn't control weapon ammo above the default provided by the game weapon files. There are several weapon-only mods that allow infinite ammo, you'll have to search for them however. Regarding the CoDaM version string at the bottom, it's there to announce that the server is running with CoDaM, no way to turn off except to remove the mod (or if you know how, hack it; but you're on your own if you decide to do this).

Thank you for your reply.

Would you please be so kind and show me a link to a UNLIMITED ammo mod? I searched several websites and even if I use the "weapon mod" from this site I have no success.
:cry:

Thanks

@Hammer

I tried a lot of MODs but I never found the possiblity to activate INFINITE ammo.

Please give a me the name of such a MOD or a Link.

Thanks in advance!
