Can you give us some information as to what you were doing at the time? Like playing on a specific modded server and or custom map and this only happens then?

@GateDiggers said in How do I add bots to my game?: the bots just run around in circles. Any way to make them actually challenging other than just target dummies? The default bots are pretty limited. They tend to just patrol aimlessly or get stuck in loops because the AI wasn't meant for full multiplayer simulation. If the bots just run in circles, grab the Bot Warfare mod — it makes them way smarter to move objectively around the map like real players. Just drop the mod in your MW3 mods folder, launch it from the Mods menu, and start a private match with bots. You can tweak their skill level too. Without that mod, the default bots are basically brain-dead target dummies. TL;DR Install “MW3 Bot Warfare” → fixes 95% of the problem. Play objective modes (Domination, Demolition for example) for better behavior. Tune difficulty and settings for realism.

@Smirnov That sure does work, I've been wondering why it changed when it used to work during the summer.

I cannot do that ... country restrictions from steam. The latest bootstrapper update seems to be a bit more broken.

@keepon if it is a plutonium ban, then you had something running that triggered the anti-cheat: https://plutonium.pw/docs/anticheat/ only thing you can do for that is to wait out your ban and figure out what it was that triggered the ban and not do it again because the next ban is for life. you can inject cheats and run other not allowed items in LAN mode (see the link above for more details)

Your stats for MW3 are saved locally in the 18409 folder in %localappdata%\Plutonium\storage\demonware If you don't have these files then your stats are lost
