VU Gunfight
Gunfight is a recreation of Modern Warfare’s gunfight mode for Venice Unleashed. It is a 1v1/2v2/3v3 round based deathmatch. Win a round by eliminating the enemy team. First team to win 6 rounds wins the game. Both teams will receive the same loadout, changing every round.
Gunfight is not intented to be used with a specific map. Instead it is designed to be used with custom maps. An integrated lobby system allows multiple matches to run at the same time on the same server.

How to set up Gunfight
Setting up the server
The following vars must be set in Startup.txt, roundStartPlayerCount must be greater than the actual playercount to ensure the round never starts.
vu.SunFlareEnabled false
vu.SuppressionMultiplier 0
vu.ColorCorrectionEnabled false
vars.roundStartPlayerCount 32
The server must also be running TDM
Enabling setup mode
Setup mode will disable the lobby and allow you to spawn in normally. In this mode, extra commands are available which can help you setup your maps and to test loadouts. You can enable setup mode by setting setup to true in ext/shared/settings
The following commands are available:
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| gunfight.transform | Prints the current player’s linear transform (location + direction). This command can be used to set the maps spawnpoints |
| gunfight.position | Prints the current player’s position. This command can be used to set the map’s area |
gunfight.spawn mapId loadoutIndex |
Respawns the player with the loadout with the given index of the given map |
Adding maps
Maps are configured in ext/shared/maps. This files returns an table of maps. Whenever setup mode is disabled maps in this array will be loaded. Each map has a mapId or key to uniquely identity a map. An example map can be seen below:
['METRO_1'] = {
displayName = 'Metro inside',
teamSize = 2,
spawnpoints = {
A = {
--omitted
},
B = {
--omitted
}
},
area = Rectangle(-235.319336, -483.191406, -164.212891, -363.029297),
loadouts = loadouts
},
spawnpoints contains the spawnpoints for both sides of the map. A and B must both be an array of LinearTransform. The gunfight.transform will pretty print the LinearTransform for you. You must also make sure each side has atleast teamSize spawnpoints.
area is used to clean up the map after each round. It is a rectangle that contains the whole playable area of the map. Use the command gunfight.position to print your position. Take note of two points at opposite ends of the playable area (going outside is preferred): (x1, y1, z1) and (x2, y2, z2). Now you can construct a Rectangle using the min and max of the x and z values of both positions:
Rectangle(xMin, zMin, xMax, zMax)
loadouts contains the loadouts used for a specific map. The correct paths for weapons, attachments and accessories can be found in the Venice EBX dump. Make sure to test whether each loadout works as expected, otherwise the game will crash. You can test whether a loadout works by using the gunfight.spawn command.
Designing Custom Maps
As mentioned before the mod is designed to work with custom maps. If you are creating custom maps for this gamemode keep the following things in mind:
- There is no mechanic which prevents players from leaving one map (read: section) , entering another map and interfering with another match. You should map sure the players cannot leave the map (read: section)
- Leaving space between maps can be helpful. This prevents players from one match from hearing audio from another. It also makes it easier to setup the area for a map.

A download of the mod with the compiled ui can be found under releases on Github.
