Call of Duty 4 Tactical Realism Mod




Tactical Realism Mod (TRM) is a mod for Call Of Duty 4. It is a modified version that originated from wrm (wolfbanes realism mod) used in cod, cod uo and cod 2.

With TRM they have gone a step further then wrm by implementing the standard TR rules in the mod. If used with default settings you can not hurt anyone unless you aim down your sight, you take severe damage or death from second story jumps, you can not jumpshoot, dolphindive etc etc.

TRM is not trying to claim to be a realistic mod, it is still a videogame and the realism is always balanced with game factor, meaning it should still be fun to play.

Gametypes

CTF Capture the flag
HTF Hold the flag
CTFB Capture the flag back
CH Capture and hold, earn points for holding the flag, war kind of game
RE Retrieval
CQN Conquer
SAB, option to remove bomb/kill icons.

1. Installation

- Create a folder called trm in your Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare/Mods directory.
- Unzip the files you downloaded to the trm folder.
- Your trm folder should now have the following:
 Server.cfg (required)
 Trm.cfg (required)
 Ctf.cfg (optional)
 Htf.cfg (optional)
 Ch.cfg (optional)
 Ctfb.cfg (optional)
 Weap_damage.cfg (optional)
 Mod.ff (required)
 Z_trm.iwd (required)
 Z_svr_mycustom.iwd (required)

- Add the following to your server’s executable string, or instruct your server provider to do it:

+set fs_game mods/trm +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg +map_rotate
- The server can now be tested but I would recommend correcting the server.cfg as specified in chapter 2.


2. Settings

Server.cfg

rcon_password "abc " //set the password to control server through rcon.
sv_allowdownload “1” //must be set to 0 so players can download the mod when connecting.
sv_wwwdownload “1” // preffered if you have a webspace for maps etc or it will be very slow downloads.
sv_wwwBaseUrl http://www.your-domain-here.com/cod4 // put your url here for your webspace, on your webspace you then need to put the same files and folders as on your server (except for the cfg’s) i.e Mods/trm/mod.ff
sv_wwwDlDisconnected “0” //so the player don’t have to disconnect to download

At the very bottom of your server.cfg the following must added:
Exec trm.cfg //read and set your trm.cfg

Trm.cfg
There are dozens of settings for TRM 1.7.5, which is why we recommend using the trm config file to set up your server. Here is the complete list and a brief description of each setting. The following section will provide a detailed explanation of their use and functions. To change a setting, the Dvar must be preceded by "set". Here are some guidelines to remember while reading through the list:

<#> <== This means you have to enter a specific value.
"#" <== Any number may be used.
"abc" <== Whatever you type will become the setting's value. For example, "TRM" would set the value to TRM. Use “” to clear these values (no space).
"1" <== These settings are turned on with a "1" and turned off with a "0".

Note: All settings can be turned on, off or changed using the game’s console or b3. However, some features require a map_restart in order to take effect.
