Installing and Configuring CoDaM MiscMod
MiscMod is a CoDaM PowerServer replacement aimed at improving stability and adding some different kind of features to CoDaM.
This is the official guide for MiscMod. MiscMod may not be compatible with other mods. Other mods may cause problems or break stability.
MiscMod is available on
GitHub.
Prerequisites
You must have a clean install of
Call of Duty running on Linux and the following files configured:
Installation
Download
CoDaM_MiscMod_v3.1.3_for_codextended.zip and extract the contents of the
.zip archive to the servers
main/ folder.
curl -LJO https://github.com/cato-a/CoDaM_MiscMod/releases/download/3.1.3/CoDaM_MiscMod_v3.1.3_for_codextended.zip
unzip CoDaM_MiscMod_v*_for_codextended.zip CoDaM_MiscMod.cfg ___CoDaM_MiscMod.pk3
rm CoDaM_MiscMod_v*_for_codextended.zip
Make sure you create the files
miscmod_bans.dat and
miscmod_reports.dat in the
main/ folder that the server can read and write to, or the server may crash.
Configuration
The configuration options for MiscMod is already well explained inside
CoDaM_MiscMod.cfg however there are many that struggle with the setup of permissions to get the server commands working. All fields represented by "less than"
< and "greater than"
> symbols are to be replaced with values. That means
<field> should be replaced in its entirety including the "less than"
< and "greater than"
> symbols.
Edit and add the following to the
codam/modlist.gsc file located in the servers
main/ folder.
level.topText = &"<your text>";
level.bottomText = &"<your text>";
[[ register ]]( "Cato's MiscMod", codam\miscmod::main );
Ensure that the above mentioned Cato's MiscMod line is before HamGoodies or parts of HamGoodies will not load in the game.
INT represent an integer. An integer is a number. For example
-1 or
1642.
BOOL represent a value of true or false. Number
1 means true and number
0 means false.
STRING represent a sequence of characters. A character is a letter, number or symbol.

To configure the permissions and get the commands working, we have to look at the following CVARs.
set scr_mm_commands "" // BOOL - enable MiscMod commands (DEFAULT: false)
set scr_mm_groups "" // STRING - user defined groups (FORMAT: "groupname1;groupname2" | INFO: You can override group 'default' by specifying it.)
set scr_mm_users_<group> "" // STRING - <group> as defined in scr_mm_groups (FORMAT: "username1:password1 username2:password2")
set scr_mm_perms_<group> "" // STRING - <group> as defined in scr_mm_groups (FORMAT: "*:<id>:<id1>-<id2>:!<id>" | NOTE: Grant permissions are evaluated first. Not permissions must be before grant permissions and wildcard permission is evaluated last.)
scr_mm_commands should be set to 1.
scr_mm_groups should contain a semicolon separated list of groups. For example
Staff;Moderator;Member.
scr_mm_users_<group> should contain a space separated string of colon separated
username:password for one or more users.
scr_mm_perms_<group> should contain a colon separated string of permissions. For example
15:!22:20-25:27:29-40.
- NOT ! permissions should be specified before a GRANT permission.
- For example !17-20:10-30 translates to; don't allow permission 17 to 20, but allow every other permission between 10 to 30. A wildcard * represent all permissions.
A full list of permission IDs later in this guide.
<group> should be replaced in its entirety by one group specified in the
scr_mm_groups CVAR.
The following is a working example that also allows users to use
!pm and
!re commands.
set scr_mm_commands "1" // BOOL - enable MiscMod commands (DEFAULT: false)
set scr_mm_groups "default;Staff;Moderator;Member" // STRING - user defined groups (FORMAT: "groupname1;groupname2" | INFO: You can override group 'default' by specifying it.)
set scr_mm_perms_default "1-4:25-26"
set scr_mm_users_Staff "Cato:mysecretpassword Thor:hammer" // STRING - <group> as defined in scr_mm_groups (FORMAT: "username1:password1 username2:password2")
set scr_mm_perms_Staff "*" // STRING - <group> as defined in scr_mm_groups (FORMAT: "*:<id>:<id1>-<id2>:!<id>" | NOTE: Grant permissions are evaluated first. Not permissions must be before grant permissions and wildcard permission is evaluated last.)
set scr_mm_users_Moderator "Peter:cookies Maria:kitties" // STRING - <group> as defined in scr_mm_groups (FORMAT: "username1:password1 username2:password2")
set scr_mm_perms_Moderator "5-24:27:43-51" // STRING - <group> as defined in scr_mm_groups (FORMAT: "*:<id>:<id1>-<id2>:!<id>" | NOTE: Grant permissions are evaluated first. Not permissions must be before grant permissions and wildcard permission is evaluated last.)
set scr_mm_users_Member "George:bush Barack:obama" // STRING - <group> as defined in scr_mm_groups (FORMAT: "username1:password1 username2:password2")
set scr_mm_perms_Member "12-15:43-51" // STRING - <group> as defined in scr_mm_groups (FORMAT: "*:<id>:<id1>-<id2>:!<id>" | NOTE: Grant permissions are evaluated first. Not permissions must be before grant permissions and wildcard permission is evaluated last.)
The above configuration allows:
- every user to use commands with permission IDs 1 to 4, 25 and 26 specified in group default.
- users in group Staff to use every command.
- users in group Moderator to use commands with permission IDs 5 to 24, 27 and 43 to 51 as well as the default IDs 1 to 4, 25 and 26.
- users in group Member to use commands with permission IDs 12 to 15 and 43 to 51 as well as the default IDs 1 to 4, 25 and 26.
Following is a list of commands and their IDs.

Final note
If you followed the
Create a Call of Duty 1 server on Linux guide ensure that all your newly added files has correct permissions for the
codserver user.
The
# symbol will be used to illustrate a root shell command.
# chmod 660 CoDaM_MiscMod.cfg ___CoDaM_MiscMod.pk3 miscmod_bans.dat
# chown codserver:codserver CoDaM_MiscMod.cfg ___CoDaM_MiscMod.pk3 miscmod_bans.dat
If you have feature requests, bug reports or some adjustment you'd like in the official release you can kindly ask Cato on
TeamSpeak.
If you do ask Cato on TeamSpeak make sure you set aside enough time to test all newly written code thoroughly and that you have a test server available.
