| == Fast installation == | |
| Unzip contents of zip file into MOD folder (i.e. hl2mp/tf2).
| |
| | |
| Launch Half-Life 2 Deathmatch with -insecure parameter. Create new game, map
| |
| dm_underpass. Type "botrix bot add" several times at the console to create bots.
| |
| | |
| Have fun!
| |
| | |
| == Installation instructions ==
| |
| As you may know Steam differs notions of GAME FOLDER (where hl2.exe is) and MOD
| |
| FOLDER (where gameinfo.txt is). Botrix plugin uses folder named "botrix" outside
| |
| of the GAME FOLDER, which is a BASE FOLDER to store configuration and waypoints.
| |
| | |
| Example of SINGLE-PLAYER GAME:
| |
| Base folder (where all games are):
| |
| C:/Steam/SteamApps/common
| |
| Game folder:
| |
| C:/Steam/SteamApps/common/Half-Life 2 Deathmatch/
| |
| Mod folder:
| |
| C:/Steam/SteamApps/common/Half-Life 2 Deathmatch/hl2mp/
| |
| Botrix folder:
| |
| C:/Steam/SteamApps/common/botrix
| |
| | |
| Example of DEDICATED SERVER:
| |
| Base folder (where all dedicated servers are):
| |
| C:/DedicatedServer/
| |
| Game folder:
| |
| C:/DedicatedServer/HL2DM/
| |
| Mod folder:
| |
| C:/DedicatedServer/HL2DM/hl2mp/
| |
| Botrix folder:
| |
| C:/DedicatedServer/botrix
| |
| | |
| Contents of this zip file should be extracted to the BASE FOLDER. If your game/
| |
| server is not under folder named "Half-Life 2 Deathmatch", but instead, say, in
| |
| folder "HL2DM", then you should move contents from folder "Half-Life 2
| |
| Deathmatch" (extracted from zip file) to folder "HL2DM". And also rename folder
| |
| "half-life 2 deathmatch" into "HL2DM" inside folder "botrix/waypoints", so
| |
| plugin can find waypoints files for your game. You should read configuration
| |
| section of this file to know how to configure your game/mod folders.
| |
| | |
| This plugin is UNSIGNED, so you need to execute hl2.exe with -insecure
| |
| parameter. You can also set it by Steam, just right-click on the game and select
| |
| it's properties / set launch parameters or whatever.
| |
| | |
| This doesn't apply for dedicated servers. You can load UNSIGNED plugin without
| |
| problems.
| |
| | |
| For now waypoints were created for 2 maps: dm_underpass and dm_steamlab.
| |
| If you want to create waypoints use botrix commands to create and save them.
| |
| After doing that, send me your files, and I will make sure to test and publish
| |
| them on my site.
| |
| | |
| Any ideas are also appreciated, and if time will allow me, I could implement
| |
| them in future versions.
| |
| | |
| == Configuration ==
| |
| Inside botrix folder there is a file: '''config.ini'''.
| |
| | |
| Make sure that both game folder and mod folder appear in section [HalfLife2Deathmatch.mod], under "games" and "mods" keys.
| |
| | |
| For given example of SINGLE-PLAYER GAME you should have:
| |
| games = Half-Life 2 Deathmatch
| |
| mods = hl2mp
| |
| | |
| For given example of DEDICATED SERVER you should have:
| |
| games = hl2dm
| |
| mods = hl2mp
| |
| | |
| For DEDICATED SERVER there is a section in config.ini: [User access]. You
| |
| should read comments inside config.ini for that section to know how to add
| |
| admins for Botrix.
| |
| | |
| Botrix should work with other mods, say Counter-Strike: Source. Check out *.items.* and *.weapons sections to know how items and weapons are handled.
| |
| | |
| If you could make bots work for other mods, please send me your config file and
| |
| I will publish it on my site.
| |
| | |
| == Limitations = future work ==
| |
| * Bots can't chat.
| |
| * Support for other mods.
