Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

Great. I testet it immediately at 1.5 and it works well.

In my opinion, Joebot became more single-minded.
Did you managed it now?
Was it that problem:
"fixed : camping bug related to round start/end initialization" ???

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

that was some error due to differences between messages in cs 1.5 and cs1.6

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

Are there differents in the old waypoint-files and the news ???
And why are the bot.cfg and joebot.cfg files so "untidy" ???

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

Some waypoint files for CS 1.5 won't work in CS 1.6. The de_aztec waypoint file had to be updated in this version. I also noticed that some of the waypoints in this version are slighty off due to updates on some maps. They're not totally unusable but could use some minor adjustments/edits.

As for the "untidy" comment, how tidy do you want it? :) Seriously, are you just looking for a more complete bot.cfg/joebot.cfg file to know all the options? The existing .cfg files are just examples of a few settings but I wouldn't consider them messy. ;)

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

I think joebot is great, but I would like some updated waypoints, because the bots liked jumping alot even when there was no reason for them to jump on dust and maybe others.

Probs installing Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

I've just installed JoeBOT 1.6.5.1 on my HLDS 1.0.0.5 (CS1.5). When I connect to the server and add some bots, they are moving *inhumanly* fast. What can be the problem with that?

I read something about setting the cvar jb_cstrike 1. I put in the "joebot.cfg". Was that correct? But I think my "bot.cfg" is currently in use.

Please help!

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

Hmmm....I've just taken a look at the code.....

I've found the code is quite different from the C/C++ I recognized :) Maybe it's too l33t for beginners like me to read.

So my suggestion is: do NOT use those names of variables like this...
pWPAMPlay, STMem.f_NUpdate, FFE...and so on,

Also don't write strange code like this....

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

I know that the variable names in old joebot are not consistent and not all according to hungarian notiation which I use normally now. LKW is LastKilledWeapon, WPAMPlay is Waypoint advanced movement play, STMem is short term memory, NUpdate is next update ... but just look into the header, there should be a comment, but there are also too less comments in general, I know :) gonna be better with my current bot ...

and I only used this crazy multiple ? construct once ... just for fun :) but it's still readable, isnt it ?

:D :D :D

I told it ! I told it !

This german guy is completely crazy

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

Is it possible to make the VIP bot get to the rescue zone with out having a escort the whole time. The vip will not move at all unless someone is there by his side and he won't come to the "Follow me" command. Or make it so the CT bots follow or stick to the VIP at all times or set it so 2 or 3 CT bots stay with the vip and lead him to saftey?

hey, welcome back on bots united, dude :D

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

Hey guys, I tried to install JoeBot, I go to start a LAN server, and it shows me half-life maps! I have CS 1.0.0.5 (1.5 retail) Anybody know if theres a path somewhere that I need to alter, or if I did something wrong? Please help!

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

you probably didn't specify where the joebot dll was correctly..
make sure that in your liblist.gam it points to where the joebot dll is..

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

I just went and fixed that, but the Half-Life maps are still the only maps showing. I see bootcamp, bounce, crossfire, etc... No de-dust or de_dust2, or anything. The liblist.gam now has JoeBot.dll instead of PodBot.dll as the game dll, but there's 2 slashes in front of it. In c/+ that means its a comment, so what do I change? (Here's what my liblist.gam looks like in notepad:)

game "Counter-Strike"
url_info "www.counter-strike.net"
url_dl ""
version "1.0"
size "184000000"
svonly "0"
cldll "1"
hlversion "1104"
nomodels "1"
mpentity "info_player_start"
gamedll "dlls\swat_bot.dll" (<--Do I change this one?)
//gamedll "joebot/JoeBot.dll" Yeah I play CF's bot too!! :) (<--Or this one?)
gamedll_linux "dlls/swat_bot.so"
trainmap "tr_1"

*I just found another liblist.gam under C://SIERRA/Counter-Strike/cstrike/cstrike/liblist.gam Here's what that one looks like (I haven't made any changes.)
game "Counter-Strike"
url_info "www.counter-strike.net"
url_dl ""
version "1.5"
size "184000000"
svonly "0"
secure "1"
type "multiplayer_only"
cldll "1"
hlversion "1110"
nomodels "1"
nohimodel "1"
mpentity "info_player_start"
gamedll "../joebot/joebot.dll"
gamedll_linux "../joebot/joebot.so"
trainmap "tr_1"


By the way, Sorry for the long post. I hope someone can help with this info.

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

where is your joebot folder?

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

I installed JoeBot with the .exe, and I have JoeBot folders in afew different places...
C://SIERRA/Counter-Strike/cstrike/joebot <--This one has all files in it
C://SIERRA/Counter-Strike/cstrike/cstrike/joebot <-- This one has chat, per, and wpjs and a liblist.gam

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

make your gamedll "joebot\joebot.dll"

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

Which one?
cstrike/cstrike/liblist.gam
or just cstrike/liblist.gam

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

You should really only have one 'cstrike' directory. For CS1.5, I think the default directory (in windows) is C:\Program Files\Half-Life\cstrike so the file path would be C:\Program Files\Half-Life\cstrike\liblist.gam

Re: Current JoeBOT Version : 1.6.5.1
 

Yeah, I thought there was some kinda problem when I had two cstrike directories, and thanx for the help!
