2.1 SWAT 4 Manual
In addition to the hard copy provided to you with purchase of SWAT 4, the SWAT 4
manual is on your CD in Adobe Acrobat PDF format. This file can be viewed by
installing Adobe's free Acrobat Reader software. This software can be installed
using the rp505enu.exe file in the "redist\Acrobat\" folder found
on Disc 1, or downloaded from www.adobe.com.
- Manual Corrections
On Page 14 of the manual, there is incorrect text. The last line of the first
paragraph should read "All scenarios must be placed in the scenario folder for t
hem
to show up in the Edit menu. These scenarios can be played by clicking on
"Play Quick Mission"".
2.1.1 The SWAT Editor
The SWAT 4 Editor is included with your purchase of SWAT 4. This editor and any
other
development tools are not supported.
Known Issues with the SWAT Editor:

- Using the Texture Browser to open files other than UTX files will cause
a crash.
- Selecting and copying a SwatMPStartCluster with other map elements
to a new or existing map will cause a crash.
2.1.2 Playing SWAT 4
SWAT is a life saving organization. The use of lethal force should be restricted
only to when the lives of the officers or innocent civilians are at stake. The
use of lethal firearms should only be used in defense of life. The first course
of action for any SWAT officer when encountering any suspects in the field is to
shout compliance (Default Key: Middle Mouse Button while crosshairs are placed
on target) to allow the suspect an opportunity to surrender peacefully.Civilians
must also be asked to comply at the scene of a crime in order to ensure their
safety as well as the safety of others. Once compliant, an individual may be
handcuffed by an officer. Both suspect and hostages should be handcuffed by the
officers before the area is considered clear.
In order to satisfy the Bring order to chaos objective that is present on all
career missions, all suspects must be arrested or neutralized. If suspects are
neutralized while compliant or before being given the chance to comply, a score
penalty for violating SWAT protocol will be imposed at the end of the mission.
To complete any civilian rescue objectives ( Rescue all of the civilians or
the rescue of specific named person) the civilian(s) must be compliant and
handcuffed. If any civilians are killed during a mission, the mission will be
failed.
2.2 Commanding your team
As the Element Leader of your SWAT team, you are able to command your AI team
members. The aid of the AI officers in your element is crucial to your survival
and success. Your element is divided into blue and red teams, each with two
officers. You may choose to give commands to the teams separately using the
toggle command targets key (Default Key: TAB) or to the element as a whole
(known as Gold ).
The quick command box at the lower right hand corner is context sensitive and
will change depending on what your crosshairs are targeting. The color of the
square indicates which team will receive your command. Pointing your crosshair
at a door will default to the Open and Clear command appearing in this box
and then pressing the quick command key (Default Key: SPACE BAR) will send the
command to your team mates. Most general orders can be given with the quick
command key.
The graphical command interface can be used (Default Key: Right Mouse Button)
to give more specialized commands to your team members. Targeting a door and
holding the graphical command interface button will give you more options than
are available to you via the quick command box. You can order your team to open
a door and deploy multiple types of grenades before actual entry into a room,
use their optiwand to mirror under the door for threats (if equipped in the
pre-assault equipment loadout menu), and much more.
2.3 Securing Evidence
During a mission, neutralized and compliant suspects will drop their weapons on
the ground. These weapons can be secured by walking up them, targeting them,
and pressing the use key (Default Key: Middle Mouse Button). You can also order
your team members to secure weapons for you. There may also be objective items

or weapons in a mission that need to be secured before the objective can be

completed.
2.4 Using Tactical Equipment
The use of tactical equipment is critical for successfully completing missions.
Locked doors can be breached by the player by moving up to the door and
targeting the lock. Targeting the lock high will display a BREACH icon on the
screen, and pressing and holding FIRE (Default Key: Left Mouse Button) will
result in your officer employing a noisy breaching item on the door (such as
a C2 Explosive). Targeting the lock low will display a LOCKPICK icon on the
screen, and pressing and holding FIRE will result in your officer picking the
lock. Targetting the foot of a door will display an OPTIWAND icon on the screen
(if the optiwand was selected in your inventory during the pre-mission loadout),
and pressing and holding FIRE will result in your officer deploying the optiwand
to mirrow under the door (while mirroring, move the mouse to look around with
the wand). Your AI officers can also be ordered to use their various tactical
items during gameplay.
2.5 Taking Damage
When you take damage during a mission, the image of your officer in your heads
up display (HUD) will flash red in the area which sustained the damage. Taking
damage to different areas of the body will result in different negative effects.
Taking damage to either arm will lower your aiming accuracy which is reflected
in the targeting reticule not being able to close as tightly as it would if you
were uninjured. Taking damage in your legs will result in slower movement. If
you take too much damage during a mission, you will be killed and the mission
will be failed.
2.6 Reporting to TOC
Anytime the status of any persons during a mission changes, the new status
should be reported to TOC. Any civilians or suspects injured, dead, or arrested
must be reported by targeting them and pressing the use key (Default Key: Middle
Mouse Button). If any of your team members are incapacitated during a mission,
not reporting them to TOC will result in a score penalty at the end of the
mission.
2.7 Snipers and Viewports
In any mission where snipers are present, the snipers will radio in suspect
sightings when they occur. When this happens, you can press the toggle sniper
viewport key (Default Key: PAGE UP) to immediately bring up the viewport of the
last reported highground sighting. You can also bring up the sniper viewport at
any time by using the same key. Some missions have multiple snipers you can
toggle through. When looking through a sniper viewport, the control viewport key
(Default Key: CAPS LOCK) will enlarge the viewport and allow you to control the
snipers with the mouse. When controlling the sniper viewport, the right mouse
button is used to control the zoom of the rifle.
You can also toggle viewports for each of your AI team members. Each officer has
a helmet camera that you can use to see the world from their point of view. You
can toggle through the helmet cams of the officers on both red team (Default Key
:
INSERT) as well as blue team (Default Key: HOME). When controlling your officers
through their viewports, you can give commands to your officers remotely and
employ more complex multi-team tactics (such as seizing control of a room that
has multiple entrances).

2.8 Pause and Objective Screen

Pressing ESCAPE or the Display Objectives and Scores key (Default Keys: B, M,
and O) will bring up the objective screen. This screen will show the status of
your mission objectives, display the procedures totals, give you the status of
all the officers in your element, and show you the available map for the current
mission. When using the ESCAPE key to access this screen, you will also have the
option of changing your game settings and aborting the current mission.
2.8.1 Completing and Failing Missions
Once all objectives are completed during a mission, a message will appear to
notify you that the mission can be completed. To end the mission, press the
ESCAPE key and click the DEBRIEF button. It is recommended that you secure all
weapons and report all statuses to TOC before debriefing to increase your final
score. If you fail any of your mission objectives, you can end the mission in
the same way although you can keep playing through the level if you choose (you
cannot successfully finish the mission until you restart the mission and
complete all the objectives). You can fail a mission by failing any mission
objective, or by being killed.
2.8.2 Scoring
Your best score for every mission on each difficulty is saved and can be viewed
from the MISSION menu. You can get a better score by not injuring suspects or
civilians, by keeping yourself and your officers uninjured, and by securing all
weapons and reporting all statuses to TOC.
2.9 Tips and Tricks
The optiwand is a critical tool. If you do not plan to carry a wand,
it is a good idea to make sure more than one AI officer is carrying an
optiwand in case one with the wand is incapacitated during a mission.
It is a good idea to optiwand around blind corners. Your AI officers
can also be ordered to optiwand around most corners.
2.10 Sharing Quick Missions with other people
Quick Missions are saved in Pack files, which have the ".pak"
extension. Pack files can contain any number of Quick Missions.
Pack files are located in the <ROOT>/Content/Scenarios directory,
where <ROOT> is the directory to which you installed SWAT 4. To share
a Quick Mission pack with another person, just send the appropriate
pack file to this person and ask them to place it in their
<ROOT>/Content/Scenarios directory and re-start SWAT 4.
Once they have done so, the Quick Missions in that pack will
automatically be available the next time the Play Quick Mission option
or the Quick Mission Maker option is selected from the SWAT 4 Main
Menu.
################################################################################
3. Multiplayer Notes
################################################################################
3.1 Hosting a server behind a firewall
The supported method of hosting a server for a network game is to use a
configuration in which all network traffic is sent directly to the hosting

computer. Users with firewalls on their network should configure their network
such that the hosting computer meets these requirements. More specifically, in
order to host a game behind a firewall, outgoing UDP and TCP traffic must be
enabled without restriction, and all UDP traffic (incoming and outgoing) on
ports 10480, 10481, 10482, and 10483 must be forwarded through to the hosting
computer.
Many commercial firewalls have an option to place particular computers in the
"DMZ", which disables network filtering and meets these requirements. If you are
having problems hosting behind a firewall, it is suggested that you try placing
your computer in the DMZ while hosting.
Users running Windows XP with Service Pack 2 may experience a warning from the
Windows XP software firewall when hosting a server. If given the option,
they must tell Windows XP NOT to block traffic for SWAT4.exe, or else they will
not be able to host a network game.
3.2 Scrolling through the chat window
The arrow keys can be used to scroll up and down the chat message window in
multiplayer games. To do this, press the ESCAPE key to go to the SCORE screen
while in a multiplayer match. Click on the chat message window and use the up an
d
down arrow keys to scroll up and down through the previous messages.
3.3 Running a dedicated server
SWAT 4 can be run as a dedicated server if the 'Run as Dedicated Server' checkbo
x
is selected in the Host Game menu. Upon launching the server, SWAT 4 will exit
and the dedicated server icon will appear in the Windows system tray located in
the Windows taskbar (which is, by default, near the bottom right of the desktop)
.
By right-clicking on this icon, server administrators can exit the dedicated
server, open the server console, or modify server options.
Server settings on a dedicated server can be changed remotely by clients in game
who are logged in as an administrator. If you wish to allow players (including
yourself) to act as administrators on your dedicated server, you must set an
administrator password. The administrator password must be set in the Admin Pass
word
field (also located in the Host Game menu) prior to launching the dedicated serv
er.
(Note: the dedicated server can also be launched by double-clicking
Swat4DedicatedServer.exe, which is located in the same directory as Swat4.exe.
When launching this way, the dedicated server will launch with the last saved se
rver
settings. To close the dedicated server, right click on the icon and select
"Exit Swat4Server").
It is recommended that when hosting a game normally or through a dedicated serve
r
that the host be on a broadband connection.
3.4 Kicking and banning players
There are several console commands that can be used to kick players
off of a server, or to kick them and ban them from rejoining. To use

these commands, you must be logged in as a server adminstrator (using

the "Admin Login" button on the multiplayer scores screen).
To use each command, you must first open the console (by presssing the
"`" key), then type the command, and then press the Enter key to
execute the command and close the console.
Command List:
------------Kicking a player by
Kicking and banning
Kicking a player by
Kicking and banning

name: KICK PLAYERNAME

a player by name: KICKBAN PLAYERNAME
ID: KICKID PLAYERID
a player by ID: KICKBANID PLAYERID

In each of these cases, PLAYERNAME is the name of the player you wish
to kick and/or ban, and PLAYERID is the player identification number
of the player you wish to kick and/or ban.
To show player identification numbers, type the command: SHOWIDS After
typing this command (and if you are a logged in as a server
administrator), the player identification number will show up in
brackets in the multiplayer scores screen, immediately to the left of
each player's name. For example, after typing SHOWIDS, a player who is
named "SwatFan" will show up in the multiplayer scores screen as
"[#]SwatFan" (where # is his player identification number, between 0
and 15). Typing KICKID # will then kick that player from the server.
