This tutorial will cover how to add a custom gametype to the Set Game Mode list in Custom Games. This is only for Multiplayer mods. In your core_mod.zone , add the following:structuredtable,gamedata/tables/common/mod_game_types.json
In your mod folder, add the following folder structure: gamedata/tables/common/ From the raw files, copy the default mod_game_types.json file from Call of Duty Black Ops III\share\raw\gamedata\tables\common to your mod's gamedata/tables/common/ folder. It should look like this:{ "_meta": {}, "data": [ { "comments": "Keep GameType Index Between 200 - 250 For Readability", "id": 20, "index": 201, "session_mode": "mp", "name": "tdm", "name_ref": "MPUI_TEAM_DEATHMATCH", "name_ref_caps": "MPUI_TEAM_DEATHMATCH_CAPS", "hardcore_name_ref": "MPUI_HCTDM", "description": "MENU_KILL_PLAYERS_ON_THE_OPPOSING", "hardcore_available": "YES", "is_team_based": "YES", "groupname": "standard", "image": "playlist_tdm", "loading_screen_image": "t7_menu_mp_icons_gamemode_graphic_tdm", "presence_ref": "PRESENCE_TDM" } ] }
Change MPUI_TEAM_DEATHMATCH and MPUI_TEAM_DEATHMATCH_CAPS to localisation keys for your mod. And change "tdm" to the name of your gametype. For example, in my Onslaught mod I created a onslaught_menu.str file in english/localizedstrings , with the following:VERSION "1" CONFIG "C:\projects\cod\t7\bin\StringEd.cfg" FILENOTES "" REFERENCE ONSLAUGHT_LOWER LANG_ENGLISH "Onslaught" REFERENCE ONSLAUGHT_LOWER_SHORT LANG_ENGLISH "Onslaught" REFERENCE ONSLAUGHT_CAPS LANG_ENGLISH "ONSLAUGHT" REFERENCE ONSLAUGHT_CAPS_SHORT LANG_ENGLISH "ONSLAUGHT" ENDMARKER
And in the mod_game_types.json for the mod I did this:{ "_meta": {}, "data": [ { "comments": "Keep GameType Index Between 200 - 250 For Readability", "id": 20, "index": 202, "session_mode": "mp", "name": "onslaught", "name_ref": "ONSLAUGHT_MENU_ONSLAUGHT_LOWER", "name_ref_caps": "ONSLAUGHT_MENU_ONSLAUGHT_CAPS", "hardcore_name_ref": "ONSLAUGHT_MENU_ONSLAUGHT_CAPS", "description": "MENU_KILL_PLAYERS_ON_THE_OPPOSING", "hardcore_available": "YES", "is_team_based": "YES", "groupname": "standard", "image": "playlist_onslaught", "loading_screen_image": "t7_menu_mp_icons_gamemode_graphic_tdm", "presence_ref": "PRESENCE_TDM" } ] }
Once you have done that, re-compile and you should see this ingame: (https://www.ugx-mods.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FkfTpxzn.jpg&hash=0a0f50ac4397dbf3f6e7db18e1686d0e203cf600)
