Plutonium

So I've been really enjoying getting back into Modern Warfare 3 and playing tons of matches against bots, but I kept wishing I could play two of my favorite game modes from other Call of Duty titles. Those being Reinforce and Gunfight. While attempting to learn some GSC scripting for other tweaks, I came across the excellent custom game mode scripts that Resxt put together. Reading the code got me thinking about how I could implement Gunfight into IW5. Well, two weeks later, I know more than I ever thought I would about the scripting in IW5 and I have successfully (at least for my purposes) ported over Reinforce and Gunfight.

Additionally, I really was not a fan of the Gun Game implementation that came with IW5 and since so much of its code is shared with Gunfight, I decided to make my own custom implementation of it as well.

These game modes work by dynamically loading only when a custom DVAR called "custom_game_mode" is set and an appropriate game type is being played. This means you can freely install all the game modes at once and have them work using console commands or through your favorite map rotation script. I have examples of how I've included them in the map rotate script I use in my GitHub repo.

I've typed up far more details and instructions in the readme on my repo, so if you are interested in using these scripts, please go to my repo here: https://github.com/bblack16/plutonium-waypoints/tree/main/iw5/scripts

I want to also give a massive shout out to the amazing work done by this community to make it possible for others like me to learn the ropes. In particular, for this project, the wonderful script work Resxt has done and posted.

Here are some quick screen shots (also on my repo) that show off the HUD changes for the three modes.

I do want to caveat that I'm pretty new to GSC scripting so there may still be some bugs lurking in the code. I do plan to continue to fix anything that comes up, so keep an eye on my repo for updates if you want to use these. Thanks and enjoy!

Artyx this is awesome news! Massive thank you to you and ZECxR3ap3r for your work on this awesome port. For anyone interested in having bots for the map, I have created and added waypoints to my GitHub repo which can be found here: https://github.com/bblack16/plutonium-waypoints/blob/main/iw5/waypoints/mp_mountain/wps_mountain.gsc

@popov_yeahh place the iwd file directly into your
%AppData%/local/plutonium/storage/iw5 directory without extracting it.

Nova_Brawl are you playing on custom maps? If so, you need to get waypoints for the custom maps you are using. Without them the bots will get stuck and walk into walls most of the time.

Another great job on this port. Very fun and works great with bots. I have added my version of bot waypoints for the map to my github repo here for anyone that finds them useful: https://github.com/bblack16/plutonium-waypoints/tree/main/iw5/mp_bo2slums

Thank you for putting all of these together. I had a bunch of other custom maps I found on these forums and in servers that were missing so I created a bunch more waypoints for those maps. I can't post a link here yet since I'm new to the forums and my reputation isn't high enough, but if you search "plutonium-waypoints" on GitHub you can find them under my namespace "bblack16". If anyone has other maps I may have missed that they want bots in, shoot me a link to the map and I would be happy to map it.

maeso I threw together some waypoints for this map that you can get from my GitHub repo. I would post a link but the forums won't let me yet due to my reputation being 0. If you go to GitHub and search for "plutonium-waypoints" you should be able to find them. They are under my personal namespace of "bblack16".

MrKermitFR awesome work on this port. It works very well!
