can you run this on local client?

a handful of the guns show up as error success in game, but everything else seems to be working fine. is there anything im missing?

hey guys !, i wonder if it is possible to run suicide bombers and fireSupport plug ins here
Sandstorm source theater doesn't work for me, some kind a texture problems in the weapons.Thanks

How do I get medics working? I've been trying for a whole day now to figure out what plugins and config files I need but everything I've tried so far has failed to work.

Help !!!!!
I found a texture problem that all the pistol suppressor are missing. The suppressor becomes a white cylinder. By the way i run it on local play.

Def works fine - don't be dumb when trying to run it

Work fine

Not working

@大佬4000小时+ are you running it with any other mods? Could be a conflict with other mods as the 35 Angry Bots theater(s) are extremely popular and tested on all kinds of servers throughout Insurgency. Might want to play just the 35AngryBots theater and slowly add other mods one by one and test each time to see when the crashes occur. Also check your console log

Conquer support is here! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2750162587 simply subscribe to this modification and the linked one above.

Is there a way to play Conquer missions solo with this?
I've tried every suggestion and still get the 0/0 players error whenever I try to start a conquer match.

Is there anyway to remove the model 10 and m45a1 skins or overwrite them with a manually downloaded mod? I'd like to use other skins but the server always seems to overwrite other mods I download or take priority over them.

fantastic mod breathes new life into the old game , thank you for the work mate

New to servers. There a way to use my own settings but still use your theater's guns and gear? Also, when I used this almost all weapons have "error success".

For myself and to those who still might not quite understand (my apologies), basically this is strictly a gun mod and wont make you get 35 bots or have a large bot requirement making playing solo insanely hard right?

Was just reading over comments, noticed people mention quite a few times their concern that you are required to run 35 bots. This is not true, the theater scales to any bot count. The name of this mod merely is making reference to the community of servers I maintain. I run insGamer, but my servers have always been 35 Angry Bots, this is just a theater based off the original The Armory: Expanded, but with new additions for my server -- anyone is free to use it though, or alter it. Sorry for any confusion on the bot count requirement.

What skin was used for HK417?

I found that the RMR Pistol optics on the Glock and similar pistols here use the 1X Red Dot Optic Reticle.I swapped my Red Dot Optic Reticle to the green triangle reticle for a change of pace.And I was surprised to see it appear as a reticle for the Pistol RMRs.

One thing I did notice though is the optic is turned 90degrees anti clockwise,so my flat bottomed green triangle now has its flat face on the RHS of the RMR rather than on the bottom where it normally sits on the normal Red Dot Optic.Still cool though,you can still aim quite well the point is still in the centre of the RMR.

This only happens if a replacement X1 Red Dot Reticle is used-I have only just noticed it with the Solid Green Triangle I have begun to use.



This is a very good Theatre btw in case other users have yet to try it -still fun today.

Wondering where I can find a list of numbers for weapons, gear, and upgrades; I'm trying to write my own loadout script.

For example if I use
inventory_buy_weapon 79

that gives me the honey badger.

And I have to do it that way because give_weapon isn't available without sv_cheats 1.

Thanks in advance.

I worked out a new way to play solo that gives me more of a chance with AI backup.


I found the file server_solo.cfg in Insurgency/Config which I added the following lines to using notepad,
mp_theater_override theater_35angrybots8p_default
and the file default_server_checkpoint.cfg in the same location and I added the lines,
"mp_coop_ai_teammates" "1"


Voila,Now I have 7 trusty team mates in my battle.If I die then I use F key to take a bot over,else look for a bot that has my loadout of weapons even better and again use F.If I run out of explosives look for grenades and Rpgs on ground else my old dead body may have IED,in order to destroy caches.Actually won my first game playing 35AngryBots this way-it was impossible solo,best I got previously was about half the objectives and near 70 kills.



My suggestion means when you play solo,I assume any mode,but I like Classic,Checkpoint then 35AngryBots is auto loaded with 7 team mates.

How do I use this mod for single push maps?

also in server cfg
mp_coop_lobbysize 10 // Number of players on team in coop
sv_visiblemaxplayers 10 // Overrides the max players reported to prospective clients
this set up for 10 humans and 35 bots

you need to change some parts in \insurgency\cfg\default_server_checkpoint.cfg

"ins_bot_count_checkpoint_min" "35"
"ins_bot_count_checkpoint_max" "35"
"ins_bot_count_checkpoint_default" "35"
also you need know how what man server you need i have 45 player server but 35 bots means i have to set human player 10 hope this helps

Can anyone share the server.cfg file?

I add this mod to server but there no 35 bots, only 20:(
how to increase the number of bots to 35 or more?

try using ins_bot_count_checkpoint_max and ins_bot_count_checkpoint_min
not sure if it will work without manually editing the config file though.

I have tried the other mod you suggested,and you are right it is a bit easier but I think not all weapons are in the smaller sized mod.Good suggestion,thanks.

I am trying both game modes with bot difficulty lower and sometimes bots pistol only,seems they still sometimes get smgs though due to secondary weapon types.

you could try The Armory: Expanded which afaik is just this but with fewer bots

I found them thanks,I want to play solo just me against the bots.Which is the best theatre or map combination?Also can I dumb the bots down a bit because Just me versus the hordes is difficult?

@boromir The files are located at
<yourSteamLibrary>\steamapps\workshop\content\222880\859127166
They are in vpk format, use gcfscape to look at em.

where is mod saved to on my PC so I can inspect the files?

how would the final server bat file command line look like ?

Could you change the m45 kimber skin with the sandstorm M45A1? The kimber one does not look that good, and I could not use my own mod on 35 servers.

So it does not matter what I do whether with or without sv_pure 0 it does not really show anything that I can orientate myself or I overlook a little thing and have the normal errors with the sound from the house because one way or the other the data from the game itself is missing and a test map id out and it shows the error what is no longer there but otherwise I do not see great as I said can also be overlooked something

@flo5000 did you make sure "sv_pure 0" is in commandline as well as server.cfg? I have seen errors when my sv_pure is anything but 0.

how get all this mod to run have tried a lot and in the end the weapons remain with an error can give me who can help info server is modded with other things just no weapons because of the error problems

(would be fine if the change only applied while the theater is active, but that isn't the case)

I don't understand why this mod changes the insurgent "shield" in the player list. Can I disable that?

@EXPERIMENT 626, I added you. @ All others, this theater mod has kept Insurgency 2014 very much alive. My group has been playing this mod for more than several years. If I were to carelessly take it off my server, they would hang me. Yes, it's that good.

@EXPERIMENT 626 I've been running this mod for years, 24-7 without issue. Friend me, msg me and I'll try to help you.

I still need help .. nobody replied to me yet ----> "I NEED HELP. From time to
time, whenever I join , certain map makes my frame-per-seconds become 1 FPS, because the console was spamming 10,000 red alarm messages per second. WHAT DO I DO ? Only on certain map"

@Joe Erotic
No one making you use anything.

If you're gonna make us use your website the least you could do is make it run better.

also mdern day theaters don't have any primaries

I wish other armory mods were up to date as this one, since not every PC can run 35 bots

pistol only would be pretty cool.

DeltaMike is it Possible to make a 35 angry bots pistol only i have tried my self but just cannot do it as i donote have the knowledge
