<![CDATA[I need some help with adding bots to a lan game. COD World at War]]>Hi, I am having difficulties with adding bots to World at War.

I would like to add bots to a Lan game at home, just to play DM or TDM with my grandson. So, 2 PCs and between 6 and 10 bots to add, depending on the map.

I followed instructions:

Downloaded Plutonium setup and let it do its thing.
Downloaded and installed T4 Bot Warfare v2.3.0

Although it looks like everything is setup as it should be, there are no bots ingame and I am not able to add any via console or by navigating the bot menu as the hotkeys do not bring it up.

I start the game via the mp.exe, go to the mods menu, select the botmod and start the server (no to dedicated server). My grandson can easily join the server and we can play but as I said I cannot add bots.

Setup is :

2 Win 10 PCs
2 retail dvd copies of the game
Plutonium r5334, Launcher version 2.2.1
T4 Bot Warfare v2.3.0 (is installed in ...appdata/local/... not in actual game directory)

I will keep trying, I am sure I am overlooking something obvious, but I would appreciate some help so I don't hurt myself too much doing that.

ps. if I get the bots to work, do I need to install the warfare bot on the client pc too (and
Plutonium) ?

I have figured where I was going wrong, it seems obvious now but not at the time of posting.

Although I was launching the bot mod I was not using the plutonium launcher.exe but I was starting the mp.exe from the game folder to get to the host game menu.

And yes, I needed to install plutonium (registering a different user at the forums) and the bot files onto the other pc.
