# IW3 Bot Warfare
Bot Warfare is a GSC mod for the [CoD4x project](https://github.com/callofduty4x/CoD4x_Server).
It aims to add playable AI to the multiplayer games of CoD4.
You can find the ModDB release post [here](https://www.moddb.com/mods/bot-warfare/downloads/iw3-bot-warfare-latest).
## <span style="color:red">Important to public dedicated servers</span>
The ```bots_main_firstIsHost``` DVAR is enabled by default!
This is so inexperienced users of the mod can access with menu without any configuration.
Make sure to disable this DVAR by adding ```set bots_main_firstIsHost 0``` in your server config!

## Installation
You can easily setup a local LAN dedicated server for you to join and play on. Have a look at [Setting up a CoD4x server](https://github.com/callofduty4x/CoD4x_Server/wiki/Server-setup).
0. Make sure that [CoD4x server + client](https://cod4x.ovh/) is installed, updated and working properly.
- Download the [latest release](https://github.com/ineedbots/iw3_bot_warfare/releases) of Bot Warfare.
1. Locate your CoD4x server install folder.
2. Move the files/folders found in 'Add to root of CoD4x server' from the Bot Warfare release archive you downloaded to the root of your CoD4x server folder.
- The folder/file structure should follow as `.CoD4x server folder\main_shared\maps\mp\bots\_bot.gsc`.
3. The mod is now installed, now start your server, change the DVARs and start a map.
4. Now start your CoD4x client and connect to your server ('connect 127.0.0.1' in the console most likely) and play!
