Bots on dedicated server
-
Hey - I tried crawling through the posts regarding bots on a custom server, but they are either really old or don't contain any useful information really ("set some dvars", doesn't really do it for me, sorry) - so here's the question again:
How can I play with bots & players on a dedicated server?Or:
Is it possible to run a custom game with friends and collect xp in some way?
-
I just found something: https://github.com/ineedbots/pt6_bot_warfare
I'll try that, if it works I'll report back. Hopefully this can help others searching for the possibility to add bots to their servers!

zlemyztex I made a tutorial for IW5 but the idea is the same, just use pt6_bot_warfare instead

Just got it working. Do you think there's a need for a dedicated tutorial for bo2? It worked pretty easily, could write a tutorial for that

zlemyztex I don't think, no. But feel free to write a tutorial if you want, it's always nice to have instructions for anything https://forum.plutonium.pw/category/22/bo2-modding-tutorials

zlemyztex Hi could you explain how you got it working on your server? In my case it works perfectly in private matches, but I can't get it to work on the server.

Resxt Yes i already followed the guide but apparently im doing something wrong cause it just doesn't work. Do i have to set all dvars maybe or just some? Also if I press N the menu doesn't come up, but as I said it works perfectly well in private matches.

UselessWhiskey when you host a server the server is not you, the server and you are two separated entities, two different players if you prefer, so you as a player don't have the menu since you're not the host/admin, you're just a random player like any other.
If you want the menu you need to set a certain dvar with your guid to tell the server "this guy is trusted, give him the admin menu"
Yes you need to set some dvars like the example I showed on my topic.Setting the fill dvar should be enough

Hey UselessWhiskey I had the same issue setting up bo2 bots on a dedi server, i ended up finding out that the files that it was reading from was in Drive:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Plutonium\storage\t6, i moved my configs into that folder and things started working for me at least.

Craptastic my topic explains everything including that
-
Resxt Thanks man i didn't know that, I thought it'd automatically recognize me as admin lol. Such a noob when it comes to servers
-
Craptastic That is correctly configured on my part actually, but thanks anyway for telling me that

Hi!
Craptastic Your topic about bots been deleted? -
lpc1990 that's not his topic it was mine and yes it got deleted, not by me, and I won't re-write it.
You just install Bot Warfare and set the Bot Warfare dvars in your server cfg to say how much bots you want etc -
Thanks for the answer!
Sorry for the mistake!
I'm having a problem just when I install it. I don't know how to actually install, where should I copy what.. I know there's a bat file that I have to run but nothing happens.. nothing is copied..
And sorry for my google translator english! -
lpc1990 You only need the files in the scripts folder, make sure they are the compiled versions
