1. Introduction
=================

This version is released, because the other versions of BJR were not compatible anymore with the updated Call of Duty 2. There are a few new features, as well as bugfixes.

This new version of BJustReal also contains new rankbased uniforms, which has been developed by C3ll Godfried. He is now an official developer of BJustReal. For those who remember GRUM (Godfried's Rankbased Uniforms Mod) for UO, will know what this is all about. Players do now have three (3) 'ranks' and each time they reach a set score, they will increase a rank. This means that they will get a new uniform and at the highest rank, players will have officer's hats and the like. The points that are needed to gain a rank are customizable by cvars. With this, you will see a more varied army of troops on the battlefield, containing even a few officers.

BJustReal is the perfect mod for any individual and/or clan who likes realism and tactical gameplay. No longer will you be able to run and gun and hit 99% of your bullets, team co-ordination and well aimed shots are the ways to victory. If you think that Call of Duty 2 is too much running and gunning, then this is the mod for you.

This mod is also SERVER-SIDE, which means that clients do not need to download it.

I hope that everyone likes the mod as much as I liked creating it. Any feedback is welcome, look in the "contact" section of this readme to see where you can relieve yourself of your feedback.

4. Installation
=================

The mod is SERVER-SIDE, so clients do NOT have to download it.

Before moving on to the installation instructions, I have to state here that the mod is NOT compatible with other realism mods. Also, the mod IS compatible with lots of other mods, like skins, models etc., but this mod is NOT compatible with mods that have the following files in the iwd file:

Any files in the /weapons/mp folder
Any files in the /info folder
Any files in the /maps/mp/ folder
Any files in the /maps/mp/gametypes folder

On to the installation instructions:

- Extract all files to your "Call of Duty 2\main" folder, you actually only need the iwd file.
- Copy all of the CVARs listed below in your config file.


=================
5. CVARs
=================

For every cvar and a short description of their functionality, please refer to the bjrcvars.txt file. These cvars can be copy/pasted into your server's config file.
