Weapon Restrictions in maps - Can it be done?

Post by Shifty »

Ok this might sound stupid but would it be possible to restrict a player to 1 gun and nothing else? - So if i wanted to make a sniper map allow only the sniper rifle etc..... All will become clear soon :lol:

Weapon restriction is done by the server not the map...... if you want a server without a certain gun, i have a mod that will thake this gun away, if you want...

Yes, it is possible. There are several rifle only servers out there. I forget the name of the mod that sets that up, but just do a quick search on Alliedassault.com in the tools section - I think there is a program that allows you to configure the weapons/grenades.

Yup but watch out these things contaminate the original game files. If you include any of these mods in your map's pk3 file, servers won't download it and your map won't be played :(.

You can, by using a script file I originally made for my bots.

It's still a beta version and pretty complicated to use though :?

It's called jv_mp_players.scr and ships with the bots beta map.
