    fed It doesn't seem to work for me. I did the Damage Counter Script you made in the above comments. But It never worked, I neither know how to run it. (if you have to run it manually) Any Help?

    1 - Copy the plugin to Plutonium/storage/iw5/plugins/
    2 - Create a file in Plutonium/storage/iw5/scripts/yourscript/__init__.lua and copy the code into it
    3 - Run the server

      Looks like a great addition, I'll install Pluto IW5 to try this out.

      I didn't notice any issues or development plan on GitHub. Looking forward to contributing to it.

        fed Thank you for adding the lua support. I've been trying to get hasperk and unsetperk to work but it seem it crash the server upon loading the script every time.

        function onPlayerSpawned( player )
	if(player:haspek("specialty_grenadepulldeath")) then
		print(player.name .. " is using marty")
	end	
end

function onPlayerConnected( player )
    local spawnListener = player:onnotify("spawned_player", function() onPlayerSpawned(player) end)
end

level:onnotify("connected", onPlayerConnected)

          st0rm not sure why it crashes but doing this works fine:

          function onPlayerSpawned( player )
    game:ontimeout(function()
        if(player:hasperk("specialty_grenadepulldeath") == 1) then
            print(player.name .. " is using marty")
        end	
    end, 0)
end

function onPlayerConnected( player )
    local spawnListener = player:onnotify("spawned_player", function() onPlayerSpawned(player) end)
end

level:onnotify("connected", onPlayerConnected)

            Thanks Fed. That work just fine. I learnt the hard way the mw3 sets death perks in a really dumb way where there is not way to unset them since they're based on death streaks.

              As many of you probably know the current chaiscript scripting is pretty bad and has many limitations. This plugin implements lua scripting in IW5 and fixes all those problems.

              Everything is basically the same as in IW6x (documentation can be found here).

              How

              • Download the latest version from the Releases tab
              • Copy it to %localappdata%/Plutonium/storage/iw5/plugins/
              • Create a __init__.lua file in a folder with a name of your choice in %localappdata%/Plutonium/storage/iw5/scripts/
              • Example %localappdata%/Plutonium/storage/iw5/scripts/myscript/__init__.lua
              • Run the server (preferably with the -no-scripting flag to disable ChaiScript)

              Below are some features that are not available or documented in IW6x

              Chat notifies

              level:onnotify("say", function(player, message)
    print(player.name .. " said: " .. message)
end)

              or

              level:onnotify("connected", function(player)
    player:onnotify("say", function(message)
        print(player.name .. " said: " .. message)
    end)
end)

              Player damage/killed callbacks

              Callbacks can be added using the game:onplayerkilled or game:onplayerdamage functions:

              Damage can be changed by returning it

              Returning anything other than a number will not do anything (must be an integer)

              game:onplayerdamage(function(_self, inflictor, attacker, damage, dflags, mod, weapon, point, dir, hitloc)
    damage = 0

    return damage
end)

              game:onplayerkilled(function(_self, inflictor, attacker, damage, mod, weapon, dir, hitloc, timeoffset, deathanimduration)
    print(attacker.name .. " killed " .. _self.name)
end)

              Arrays

              GSC arrays are supported and can be accessed similarly to gsc:

              local ents = game:getentarray()

for i = 1, #ents do
    print(ents[i])
end

              To get the array's keys use the getkeys method:

              local keys = player.pers.getkeys()

for i = 1, #keys do
    print(keys[i])
end

              Structs

              GSC structs are also supported similarly as the arrays.

              To get an entity's struct use the getstruct method:

              local levelstruct = level:getstruct()

levelstruct.inGracePeriod = 10000

              Structs in other variables like arrays are automatically converted:

              level:onnotify("connected", function(player)
    player:onnotify("spawned_player", function()
        player.pers.killstreaks[1].streakName = "ac130"
        player.pers.killstreaks[1].available = 1
    end)
end)

              Note: you cannot create new struct fields but only modify or read existing ones, same thing for arrays

              Functions

              You can call (will not work for every function) functions and methods within the game's gsc scripts using the

              scriptcall(filename, function, ...) method:

              level:onnotify("connected", function(player)
    player:onnotify("spawned_player", function()
        local hudelem = player:scriptcall("maps/mp/gametypes/_hud_utils", "createFontString", 1)
        
        hudelem:scriptcall("maps/mp/gametypes/_hud_util", "setPoint", "CENTER", nil, 100, 100)
        hudelem.label = "&Hello world"
    end)
end)

              Functions in variables such as structs or arrays will be automatically converted to a lua function.

              The first argument must always be the entity to call the function on (level, player...)

              local levelstruct = level:getstruct()

level:onnotify("connected", function(player)
    player:onnotify("spawned_player", function()
        levelstruct.killstreakFuncs["ac130"](player)
    end)
end)

                st0rm And regarding this, I don't know what you want to achieve, but if it works for you, in GSC I use this to deactivate the death streaks

                onPlayerKilled()
{
    self endon("disconnect");
    level endon("game_ended");
    for(;;)
    {
        self waittill("killed_player");
        self.pers["cur_death_streak"] = 0; //Stop deathstreak
    }
}

                    fed I came here today to ask a question about the lua language in Bo2 Plutonium, I wanted to know another method to change or add custom menus in bo2 Plutonium without having to use the plutonium files that is privategamelobby_project.lua ?

                    I want to load my own lua script into the game, is that possible ? How to do that..?
