How To Use BO3 Mod Tools To Load Custom Scripts For T7x
Pre-requisites
- Make sure you have mod tools installed. You can get them from Steam or copy this link to your browser's address bar
steam://run/455130
(you must own the game to install the mods tools on Steam) - Download Cerberus - latest release https://github.com/Scobalula/Cerberus-Repo/releases
- Extract Cerberus somewhere familiar, I put mine in
C:\Cerberus
.
Compiling GSC Via Mod Tools
- Open mod tools
- Press the black paper icon top left of the screen and select “mod”.
- Call it whatever, but I'd keep it organized to the respective modes. ie: zm_mod for zombies and mp_mod for mp.
- Right click on
mp_mod
and select “open mod folder”. - Create a new folder and name it “scripts”.
- Inside scripts folder, put your uncompiled script there and name it
mod.gsc
- Now's the time to edit your GSC if you wish before you compile it.
- Go back to the root of your mod folder and open
zone_source
folder. - Open
mp_mod.zone
file with text editor - At the bottom of the file, paste this onto the last line of the file
scriptparsetree,scripts/mod.gsc
- Save it and head to the mod tools and checkbox the
mp_mod
under your name of the mod. - On the left check “link” and then press “Build”
- If done correctly, it should compile everything in
mp_mod.ff
in a newly created zone folder of the root of your mod folder. Leave this window open.
Extracting Compiled GSC Using Cerberus
- Open the folder where you extracted Cerberus.
- Now head back to the zone folder of your mod, should see a
mp_mod.ff
file in there. Drag and drop themp_mod.ff
ontocerberus.cli.exe
. - Cerberus will now extract your compiled scripts to "ExtractedScripts" folder.
Loading your GSC script
- Navigate through the "ExtractedScripts" folder until you find your beloved
mod.gscc
from the Cerberus directory. - Copy
mod.gscc
to<path_to_bo3_game_folder>\t7x\custom_scripts
. - Rename the
mod.gscc
tomod.gsc
or to whatever name you want. So long as it has a.gsc
extension. - Done - now start the game and enjoy scripting. 👍 NOTE: YOU CAN SEAMLESSLY LOAD GSC WITHOUT RESTARTING THE GAME
