CoD4 - basics

[Tally]

I don't want to run server from main folder. After setting "+set fs_homepath "/home/cod4/server"" console_mp.log is in fs_game folder so I think it's ok.

Will the "q3dirtravfix.so" from CoD2 work in CoD4?

What if I will check bullettrace before calling damage function?

		/*================
Called when a player has taken damage.
self is the player that took damage.
================*/
CodeCallback_PlayerDamage(eInflictor, eAttacker, iDamage, iDFlags, sMeansOfDeath, sWeapon, vPoint, vDir, sHitLoc, timeOffset)
{
    // Check for bulletTrace
    ...
    ...
    ...

    if(trace)
        return;
    //

    self endon("disconnect");
    [[level.callbackPlayerDamage]](eInflictor, eAttacker, iDamage, iDFlags, sMeansOfDeath, sWeapon, vPoint, vDir, sHitLoc, timeOffset);
} 
	

What do you mean what if you check bullettrace before calling damage? What are you trying to do? If you are trying to stop Deep Impact/specialty_bulletpenetration, it wont work. You can't intercept the depth of impact of Deep Impact because, as I said, it is hard coded, and it's done in the engine, not in script. The only perks which are done in script are:

specialty_bulletdamage
specialty_armorvest
specialty_explosivedamage

The script for handling those perks can be found in maps\mp\gametypes\_class::cac_modified_damage(). All the other perks are done in the engine, and they are hard coded.
