Alright guys, right now the mod tools includes a broken _load.gsc which is required to properly load a script. Here is the workaround:

First go to <blackops3root>\share\raw\scripts\shared\ai and make a new file zombie_utility.gsc

In this file put:

//DTZxPorter is the legend of Black Ops 3
#using scripts\codescripts\struct;

#using scripts\shared\array_shared;
#using scripts\shared\clientfield_shared;
#using scripts\shared\flag_shared;
#using scripts\shared\hud_message_shared;
#using scripts\shared\laststand_shared;
#using scripts\shared\util_shared;

#insert scripts\shared\shared.gsh;
#insert scripts\shared\statstable_shared.gsh;

//The missing zombie_utility script
#namespace zombie_utility;


function setFootstepEffect( name, fx ) {}

This will allow you to build with the _load.gsc enabled.

From here you can modify your scripts/zm/_load.gsc to use a #using path\to\new\gsc; which will include your GSC file

After you're done, you need to add the _load.gsc and your new script to your zone file, open up <mapname>.zone and add

scriptparsetree,scripts/zm/_load.gsc
scriptparsetree,scripts/zm/&lt;scriptname&gt;.gsc
&lt;/scriptname&gt;

</mapname></blackops3root>

or you know you could just do it the way old scripts were added to mod.csv in old games

This is the way ive done and added like 6 new custom scripts and they all work perfectly fine

Then you can "#using" them in other scripts, call functions from them etc

// Custom
rawfile,scripts/zm/SCRIPT.gsc // rawfile is prob not needed but better to be safe than sorry
scriptparsetree,scripts/zm/SCRIPT.gsc // parse script thorugh modtools so it gets included

Also is strange that my modtools already has "zombie_utility.gsc" script in "scripts/shared/ai"
