My bots dont work with AMXX 1.60?

[micrors4racer]

They wont join a team. And i cant seem to find the lastest update to make it work.

[KWo]

What the version of podbot are You using?
Write in console:
meta list
and show us the contents of it. Which operating system? Kind of server - listen or dedicated. Are You sure You are playing the latest version of podbot mm - currenly R2B46d?

[preztoo]

Naybe you don't have the right files? Mine worked on first installation try 10 mins ago! :-) I tried Epod bot yesterday, but it's buggy.

[HuntTheShunt]

My server has been running version 2005.2.15.0 of podbod and amxx 1.6.0.0 for a month now with no errors at all!

Great bots!!!!

[HuntTheShunt]

Sorry that is not very helpful.
My dll must be version B not D

Still Great bots though.

[Holly_hell_in_heaven]

i have a question can i run pod but whit amx mod x superhero?

[KWo]

Advice - go to main podbot mm forum , click on "Search this forum" button (that one at right - above posts and threads numbers), write "superhero" and look what was written here few times.

[Holly_hell_in_heaven]

oh...

[Guenhwyvar]

Hm, is it a new steamupdate? My bots do not join the game anymore (since today).

I use amxx 1.60 and vR2b46b for some weeks now on two servers, no problems until this day.

[KWo]

Try to disable AMX X in metamod's plugins.ini (add a semicolon at the begininning of the line calling amxmodx_mm.dll) and try again with podbot mm only and let me know if it still makes You troubles.

[Guenhwyvar]

System conf: Athlon 64 with Suse 9.3 x64. AMXMODX v1.60, MetaMod v1.18p26.

meta list:
[ 2] POD-Bot mm RUN - podbot_mm_amd64. vR2b46b ini Chlvl ANY

My podbot_mm_amd64.so filesize is 319.374 bytes (EDIT: downladed here: http://koti.mbnet.fi/axh/amd64.binaries.html )


If I try the binary of this (http://forums.bots-united.com/showthread.php?t=4035) thread (the first one and the steamfixed version, c at the end):

[ 1] <podbot_mm_amd6 badf load podbot_mm_amd64. v - ini - -


I tried everything without AMXX loaded and only with the metamod-p (1.18p26).

For some weeks now (until day before yesterday), this (vR2b46b) worked great, no crashes, bots joined and played in the game.

Any suggestions/ideas are welcome!

[KWo]

Did You try this one (http://filebase.bots-united.com/index.php?action=file&id=326)?

[Guenhwyvar]

thanks, it wasn't the solution, but the reason for another try:

I downloaded the mentioned version and like most of the others it wasnt loaded (badf).

Then, I pointed out these messages after quitting the server with hlsw:

Maybe I shouldve seen this earlier, but I never paid much attention to the shutdown messages ;).

I checked my suse install and did only found a libstdc++.so.5.

Via wget I downloaded a rpm package called "libstdc++34-3.4.3_16-0.1.x86_64.rpm" (link) (http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/1873598/com/libstdc++34-3.4.3_16-0.1.x86_64.rpm.html) and put it on (rpm -Uvh ./libstdc++34-3.4.3_16-0.1.x86_64.rpm).

Another restart brought up a running (and working!) vR2b46d :).

I do not really understand, what happened (*g, perhaps someone could lose some smart words about that), but it's maybe helpful to some people.

Hm, weird, I get a similar error now.

Just set up a fresh cs 1.6 install on a new root (opensuse 10, 32bit). AMXMODX v1.76c, MetaMod v1.19p28).

I don't want to install foreign rpm packages - is there any other way to get the bots running?

[jeefo]

Recompile bot source on your OS :)

[Guenhwyvar]

@jeefo
bad hint :(

I crawled around the forum and found this topic:
http://forums.bots-united.com/showthread.php?t=4494

The solution in there worked for me. It seems if the binary (v3.0B17) is still compiled with an old/outdated version of make.

[KWo]

Since I don't have linux I cannot test anything with it. I must just believe in that makefile I have. If You can write me any advices what should I do to compile under windows xp the linux binaries with cygwin to get it working with libstdc++.so.6 - feel free to post me the solution. Grab from th efolebase the sources of podbot mm and look into existing makefile and tell me what should I change with it.

[jeefo]

@KWo:
You can try to kill all usage of C++ in bot, use Vector<> class from AMXX, and new/delete wrappers, form there too. So final SO, will not require libstdc++ at all ... I'm now trying todo similar stuff with yapb.

[The Storm]

There is nothing bad in STL. ;) If there is so much problems with the libraries just compile them staticly. :)

How? I think it may extend dramatically the length of linux binaries... :(

About the topic starter problem - I didn't notice it before - he is using mm 1.18, but pb mm requires mm 1.19...
