STEP

Download The Mod Launcher

The Mod Launcher for BO1 will add a "Mod" category to the BO1 Main Menu.  You must launch the game from the BO_Mods.bat and NOT THROUGH STEAM. Download game_mod.rar, current version is 1.3.2.

game_mod.rar

STEP

Install The Mod Launcher

After it's finished downloading open game_mod.rar and extract everything into your Call of Duty Black Ops folder.  This is usually located in your SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Call of Duty Black Ops.  In Steam you can also find where it is installed by going to your Library, right click on Call of Duty: Black Ops, go to manage and click "Browse local files".

STEP

Make a Folder Named "mods"

In your BO1 folder create a nother folder and name it "mods".  This is where your custom maps/mods will be installed.

STEP

Download The Map You Want

You can Find all the map downloads here:

BO1 Maps

BO1 Mods

 

 

STEP

Install the Map/Mod

Once the map is finished downloading Extract the folder to the mods folder you created earlier.

STEP

Start BO1 using BO_Mods.bat

In order to play custom maps or use mods, you must launch BO1 using BO-Mods.bat located in the Call of Duty Black Ops folder (Note: Steam must be running before you launch the game)  Do not launch Black Ops using Steam or the BlackOps.exe.  The map will only work when you launch the game using BO_Mods.bat.

STEP

Loading The Map

Once you launch the game using the BO_Mods.bat in your menu you will now have a "MODS" category.  Click that and select the custom map you want to play.  Once it loads click on Zombies, choose Custom Zombies and click on the map name to start playing.

BO3 Custom Maps Not Working Due To Game Language

BO3 Custom Maps Not Working Due To Game Language

Copy the URL link to this section to share
Version 1.0.0
Information.

Some BO3 maps are not playable because of your games language.  With this work around you should be able to play any map that is not playable due to your game language.  I've tested this using the English version of BO3, but this will work for all versions of the game.  The easiest way to fix this problem is to change your game language to English, but apparently this is not possible on all versions of the game.

EASY WAY Change Game Language:

Steam Library, Right click on Call of Duty: Black Ops III, Properties, Language, and change it to English.

If you don't have this option to change your language, follow below to get the map to work.

STEP

Steam Library

Go to your Steam Library > steamapps > workshop > content > 311210. This is where all your custom maps are installed

STEP

Finding The Map

For this example I am using the map Saw 1, which is only playable with the English Version (en) of the game. (To easily find the folder number for your map in the BO3 workshop go to the map page and click share and notice the number at the end of the url.

STEP

Change The File Name

To make the map work for your language change these two files to your language code.  In this example I've changed this to work with the Russian (ru) version of the game.  The map should now be playable.  

Language Codes:

bp = Brazilian Portuguese
ea = (not sure)
en = English
es = Spanish
fr = French
ge = German
it = Italian
ja = Japanese
po = Polish (not sure)
ru = Russian
sc = Sardinian (not sure)
tc = (not sure)

WAW Console Commands

WAW Console Commands

Copy the URL link to this section to share
Version 1.0.0
Information.

These for me are the most useful console commands.

To use these commands you must first enable the console in your waw settings at "OPTIONS &CONTROLS/GAME OPTIONS/ENABLE CONSOLE "yes""

Once enabled you can use the Tidle [`] key (Beside the Numeric '1' and under the 'Esc' key) to enter the commands.

CommandDescription
map (map name)
Ex: map nazi_zombie_cargo		Launch a map that doesn’t have a solo button.
devmap (map name)
Ex: devmap nazi_zombie_cargo		Allow cheats in game, such as god, noclip, weapons.
cg_fov ( number between 1-160)
Ex: cg_fov 90		Changes FOV/Field of View. The higher the number, the more you can see.
bind (key) cg_fov 90
Ex: bind f3 cg_fov 90		Use a key to change your field of view to 90, instead of having to enter cg_fov 90 everytime you play.
fast_restartAfter you die restart the map, without going back to the lobby
bind (key) fast_restart
Ex: bind f2 fast_restart		Use a key to fast restart instead of having to type /fast_restart everytime.
r_fullscreen 0
vid_restart
Ex: Type “r_fullscreen 0” then press enter then type “vid_restart”		Allows you to play cod waw in Windowed Mode. Useful if you want to access other windows while ingame. Example watching an Easter Tutorial while still playing and without the game crashing.
r_fullscreen 1
