Basic assistance please!

[Slugster]

am just getting to grips with this bot and have downloaded 0.40 alpha.
only the beach map seems to work is that correct? do i need extra waypoint files to make other maps work? Havent used this before so i think i might have missed the basics. Just would like to play a couple of other maps.
cheers

Actually, mp_destruction and mp_trenchtoast work as well.

[Slugster]

thanks for that - what is the actual list as i dont know the names of the map files?

[The Ghost]

Beach Invasion(mp_beach) - in Objective mode

Communique(mp_base), Destruction(mp_destruction) & Trench Toast (mp_trenchtoast) - in Checkpoint mode

Also note: if you start up Fritz thru the menus, (ex: hit "fritzbot" button, then go to the create server screen), only the maps Fritz has a path file for will be shown, so currently in Obj mode, that is Beach, and in CP mode, thats base, destruction, trenchtoast. When new path files are released, they will show up in the create server menu automatically for you once they are downloaded.

To me all the maps still show. :/

Hmmm, I'm going to have to find out why that is - I modified the UI so that it only showed Fritz supported maps, and thats what I see when I play right now.

Do you have the ui_mp_x86.dll file in your fritzbot directory?

How do you start fritz up?

[Gatekeeper]

I usually open up WolfMP normally and go to options -> mods -> FritzBot. When I use the command line to change the fs_game it's the same, though. And yep, ui_mp_x86.dll is in the FritzBot directory.

Does anyone else see all the maps instead of just the ones Fritz works on?

All the maps that I've downloaded show with the exception of
MP_Beach???:( How are the bots loaded into the maps? I've
tried "exec bot" and "addbots" but nothing happens9_9
I know I"m missing some commands. I tried running Base,
and Destruction.

If the mod is loaded correctly, the bots will automatically load themselves.

the "bots.cfg" file was included as part of the release, and if you just type "addbot" it should complain to you that you didn't specify the bots name.

If none of that works, I suspect that for whatever reason, your running vanilla Wolf, and not Fritz, but I don't understand why ATM.
Let me know if my shortcut idea worked, or if Dennys tip works.

In fact I get this aswell. The whole list appears and thats why i had some probs playing a map as i wasnt sure which one was supported. As soon as i create those shortcuts to the specific maps then Fritzbot worked fine. Looking forward to the new path files!
great bot! good work.
cheers

I'm glad you got it working.
