Looking to override the the default five class slots? Easy.
-
Open the game with a mod so we can access the
console
.
-
Go to Multiplayer →
Custom Games
-
Setup Game →
Edit Game Rules
-
Select
Create a Class
and begin editing the classes.
-
Some information about the Settings tab within this screen is:
-
Custom Classes
: Allow players own classes to show when in-game.
-
Selections Allow
: Maximum number of create a class slots shown (is not affected by
Preset Classes).
-
Preset Classes
: Global = Both teams use these classes, Per-Team each team has
their own classes
-
Once your classes have been set return to
Custom Games
main menu.
-
Open console and enter the command:
\gamesettings_generateconfig
-
The game will hitch for a moment but now we can exit out of the game.
-
Go to your Black Ops III root directory and open the folder
local_storage
.
-
Find the most recent created
.cfg
file (usually it's the one ending in _v55 but that can be changed) and
open it.
-
Inside you'll see what makes the game set all the classes for you and
various other modified settings from the Custom Games screen.
-
What we need to do right now is cut out the second column:
gametypesettings
use Notepad++ to remove it all for you or use Search & Replace in your
text editor.
-
Now our lines should be similar to this:gametype_setting cacloadouts 0
customclass 0 primaryattachment1 0
-
Copy the entirety of the config to your own
mp_mod.cfg
(if you don't have this file create it in the root of your mod).
-
Now launch the game and make sure to load the mod from the Main Menu as of
now the config isn't executed from command line/Launcher (this has been
fixed by Treyarch and will be included in a later update).
