5.56mm Full Metal Jacket (beta version 0.75)
============================================
AUTHOR: Oneofthe8devilz

IMPORTANT ISSUES:
1. I strongly recommend to leave the preset gfx settings as they are, since
rising the resolution or enabling AA might result in severe slowdowns...
2. In order to make FMJ dedicated server hosting more reliable for windows XP I
have included Adam Sosnowski's "timed keeping alive ded-server script for
windows xp". So in order to launch a dedicated FMJ server that is timed and
automatically restarts after a crash simply run the "5.56mm FMJ Mod TKADS"
shortcut. (for further info on configuring the script simply read the
descriptions inside the script file)
To just run a dedicated server simply run the "5.56mm FMJ Mod Dedicated Server"
shortcut.
Due to perfomance but also coding reasons I strongly recommend to play this
mod only on a dedicated server. In case you have to play on a Computer that
also acts as host DO NOT start a listen server from the game menue but
instead launch the FMJ dedicated server (by the shortcut) and then launch
the FMJ client to connect to it (type "connect localhost" in the console to
join your own server)
3. We have added a toggle weapon function, so in case you kill or steal a weapon
from the enemy team, you can switch to it buy pressing the according weapon
class key twice (pistols, shotguns,smgs,.....)
4. We have added 2 new Gameplay Types. CTF (Capture the Flag) and CAC (Capture
and Control)... While playing CAC, captured CAC torches will turn either
blue or red on contact and start to add points to the according team...
The team that first reaches the CAC score limit wins so try to conquer and
hold as many CAC torches as possible...
5. We have added a "Screen Saver" function for FMJ, just run the "5.56mm FMJ
Mod Screensaver" shortcut and enjoy camera flights through the FMJ universe.
Linux and macOS can launch the FMJ screensaver by running Doom 3 with the
following command line parameters:
"+set fs_game 556mmfmj +set r_fullscreen 1 +map screensaver_de_gowbarb"
6. Now that we have added "sticky zoom" you no longer need to keep the zoom
button pressed to stay zoomed
7. There is also a third person view feature with this new version... So now
during the heat of the battle or while running in formation with your mates
you can switch at any time to the third person view and enjoy the show
8. All FMJ shortcuts are also installed to "Programs\5.56mm FMJ" so you can
start and control any client or server settings from there too..
INSTALLATION
Once you downloaded the rar file, unrar it and run the file
"556mmfmj_installer_beta_v075.msi". Make sure to install the mod to your Doom³
Folder so point to it (Example C:\games\Doom³)..Once the installation is
complete, a shortcut called "5.56mm FMJ Mod" is created on your desktop and a
"5.56mm Full Metal Jacket" shortcut folder is created at your "programs" startmenu......
Double click the shortcut and play..........
In case you have downloaded the "non-installer-version" make sure the shortcut
folder directories fit or simply run the bat files in the "556mmfmj" folder.
For ppl that want to run FMj under Linux or macOS make sure to launch FMJ with
the apropriate shortcut entries....
Thank you for downloading and installing the 5.56mm FMJ Mod ! I hope you will
have as much fun playing this as I had making and testing it.

two genres together and enrich the Doom3Community with a Mod that hopefully will
find its lovers
