The mod has four theater mutators to choose from. PICK ONE:

ISMCarmory_Legacy ISMC guns and NWI cosmetics. Three player classes; blufor, redfor and team leader, with access to both western and eastern weaponry. Has vanilla enemy bots on each side.

ISMC_Casual ISMC guns and ISMC cosmetics. Security maps have you playing as “BluFor” with an AR based set of weapons. Insurgent maps have you playing as “RedFor” with an AK-based set of weapons. Contains all classes, Team Leader, Gunner, Breacher, Marksman, Demolitions and Advisor, and has unlimited class slots. Blufor/Redfor enemy bots.

ISMC_Hardcore Same as ISMC_Casual. Has limited class slots (1 Team Leader, 2 for other classes). 11 Players.

ISMC_Karmacore Same as ISMC_Hardcore. Has one slot per class. Coordinate or die. 5 players.

- Although not recommend; all theater class-slots will scale to 20 players.

- The theaters do not modify bot skill configs.

- The theaters can be played on both insurgent and security maps.


There are now also optional movement mutators. PICK ONE:

Pick one header. The 4 theater mutators inherit from ISMCBASE if you want to set global settings.

;Use to limit Team Leader slots NumTeamLeader=-1 ;Use to enable Medic slots. Names are "Blufor Medic""Redfor Medic" for Legacy and "BF Medic""RF Medic" for other theaters. ;Medic slots have no medic functionality and require you to configure another mod to provide it such as @Medic-demo NumMedic=0

;Tags are appended to gamestate to unlock certain gear. These two variables read from the array TagProfiles if not empty. Otherwise they use a default set (shown in the override example below) ;The night profile tags will have the default profile tags appended in night scenarios.

;In addition to adding "Thermal" to a profile above, thermals require hot bodies and players to be drawn to a separate depth buffer for the effect to work. ;This setting needs to be set to "True" for that to be applied. This can affect performance on ALL clients even when thermals aren't in use. ;This buffer is also used by the NWI optics shader and will be seen as a wallhack effect on vanilla scopes. ISMC scopes are patched to use a workaround shader but there may still be traces of vanilla scopes in the theaters. EnableThermalBuffers=False

;When using the 3 cosmetic theaters and hardcore checkpoint, by default all gear is stripped from players resulting in invisible players. ;An alternative respawn loadout is available to provide a default player model until resupply.
