thisismynameok/bo3-server-docker repository overview

⁠Black Ops 3 Server (Docker)

Host a Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 server, built for Zombies, with EZZBOIII⁠ or T7X⁠. Treyarch's official server (multiplayer only) is also supported. Everything runs under Wine on Linux.

No game files are included. The container downloads them with your own Steam account, which must own Black Ops 3 (plus the DLC for DLC maps).

⁠Features

• One command downloads what you need: the server files, plus the Zombies files and sound banks for the maps in MAPS, custom maps from WORKSHOP_MAPS and a mod from MOD_ID, all via DepotDownloader. A Zombies server doesn't need the full game.
• Settings in compose: server name, password, max players, game mode, map rotation and any other server setting (SET_<setting>).
• Map rotation: the next map loads when a match ends or the last player leaves.
• Server console in docker logs.
• Multi-arch: linux/amd64, plus linux/arm64 (work in progress, via Hangover).
