PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Hello!

I've tried to install PODBot, which I got on the homepage (POD51INS.EXE), it tried to install to my "halflife"-folder ???:( , so I installed into a dummy folder and moved everything to my "steamapp\counter-strike\cstrike"-folder - added the "gamedll"-line with the PODBOT.DLL to my LIBLIST.GAM, set it Read-Only...

When I startet a New Game, it was loaded, but when I typed in console "addbot", CS got stuck and I got a XP-errormsg.o_O

What's the difference between PODBot and EPODBot?
Where can I get it from?
Does there exist a MetaMod-DLL?

Greets,

isnt compatible with 1.6 yet. dont know if they will make it so but if they do i sure will use it ^^

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Here is a metamod podbot 2.5 (win32)

save it to your podbot folder

I dunno who made it or where it came from, it works with steam (tho bots don't buy new weapons) and you need the normal podbot 2.5 installed, i assume for the configuration.

then just add this line to your metamod plugins.ini

win32 podbot/podbot_mm.dll

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

hm.. podbot works with steam is IVP

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

hpb_bot also works (w/o buying new weapons ..)

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

I get an error with the podbot_mm.dll.

I'm starting to play and then everthing freezes and an error message appears. It says that the error occured in the podbot_mm.dll module.

Anybody else tested this dll?

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

PMB has an updated version which sort of works, but I think the latest CS update has broken all the bots.

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Well, anyway I got the error message. It won't help much (I think).

"HL caused an invalid page fault in module PODBOT_MM.DLL at 01a7:0ac6d19c"

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

you can use IvPBot with MetaMod/AdminMod using the +localinfo mm_gamedll switch in your CS command line shortcut

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Yeah dude, only some of the PODbot MODDED versions work with CS v1.6 with steam, so, PODbot v2.5 and so? not compatible...

Here's a few names to look for:

IvPbot
Nicebot
Akimbot

Realbot
(I'm not a big fan of this one, cause it's more fake than real... even PODbot v2.5 acted more realistically, of course this is just my opinion. But when a bot stands still and does nothing while you blast it in the face with a shotty? lol, tha's fake. :P)

BTW, this is a E[POD]bot forum, so you should've gone to the PODbot forums over at forums.nukebox.com oh well, it's semi related since it's PODbot.

[OFFTOPIC]
Heyyo botmeister, how goes your meanmod eh? are ya still updatin' it?

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Aww man... it's still being worked on and looks really promising... it has a beautiful navigation system IMO where the bots learn from your movements... It will get better... give em a chance man...

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Dude, I never dissed their movement, I'm saying their waiting time's horrible. I dunno why, but on my computer, they tend to stand still... and not do anything for a while. And don't go saying I don't have the cpu power, cause I've got:

AMD Athlon +1900
512mb PC2700 DDR
G4 FX5600 128mb

Lol, so CS is easily playable, and taken care of :P

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

*g* thats the AI, like humans, he must think, and the the fewer expirience they have (after deleting rbn/rbx files for an uodate) the more they are like new-bees (ok, they can shoot better)...

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

hello,
just to say this podbot_mm.dll also (an always) bug with cs 1.5
(it must be a very bad convertion into metamod :D )

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Uhh, memed, it actually stands still for like 10 seconds at a time... doing nothing, while I can run up and stab it. I think a real persons reaction would be to shoot back. I actually liked v1.0 of realbot more than these new ones, cause it shot more. :P

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

What's the command to add bots using that podbot_mm.dll? addbot doesn't do anything

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Dream, did you check for a readme that came with the download?

BTW, in the latest CS patch for steam, they fixed the CL_FAKECLIENT error, so all bots will work again for CS 1.6. :)

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

MarD, I did that's why I said the "addbot" cmd doesn't do anything. :D

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Oh sorry, my bad :P

Well, did it not recognize the command at all? and are there no bots ingame when you start the map? if so, your bot might not be installed...

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Podbot is loaded ok according to meta list but when I enter addbot or even quick addbot, nothing happens.

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

are you just doing "addbot" ?

Cause I thought for metamod you had to do something like

"pod addbot" or somethin'.... can't remember, too long ago :P

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

According to the manual that came with podbot, the cmd is addbot or quick addbot.

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Yeah, I think the metamod version has diff commands, so I think that PM forgot to change the menu stuff, so just try it in the console man, ya know about the console right?

if not, then make a shortcut for cs, and in its target line add: -console

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

I tried that, didn't work. I'm not using console, just the gui as I like how it looks better then a dos looking window. :D

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Hmm, well then, I dunno. :P

Try to look for some meta mod forum, or look at the official podbot forum over at http://forums.nuclearbox.com/

Lot's of people ask about it, just search that forum man, I'm sure you'll find something onnit.

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

pod bot 2.5 work with steam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Yeah, E-manuel17, the new Steam patch fixed the "CL_Fakeclient" error, which stopped the bots from workin'. Pretty cool eh? :)

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

yeah that is cool...but their is something that is bothering me..........the bots don´t by any weapeons after the first round........!!!!!!!!!someone help mee?

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Hmm, sounds like a incompatibility error with CS 1/6 maybe?

Cause they had np buyin' stuff on non-steam versions (v1.5 and down...) so maybe the new codin's messed it up....

I suggest tryin a bot that was made for CS 1.6, such as IvPbot, and NiceBot, both from the PODbot source.

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

MarD, how do you load IVPBot?

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

You mean into steam?

well, find your steam directory, and go into a bunch of folders, here's an example for my cs directory in steam:

"Steam\SteamApps\***Insert Username***\counter-strike\cstrike"

and put the IvPbot folder in there.

And then, open up the "liblist.gam" file using something like Notepad, or someother typing program.

Look for the line: "gamedll dlls\mp.dll"
and add a # infront of it to make it look like: "#gamedll dlls\mp.dll" this is good for backing up the original path for the dll for easy reverting changes back.

And then, insert a line underneeth the new backed up #gamedll line, and make it: "gamedll ivpbot\ivpbot.dll" or whatever the dll file is called... can't remember it. :P

That should do it.

BTW, if you download the .EXE version instead of the .ZIP version, the installer does all the hard work, you just have to lead it to your steam's counter - strike folder. For example, mine's:

Steam\SteamApps\***Insert Username***\counter-strike\

Hope that helps. :)

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

There was a new Steam update which fixed FL_FAKECLIENT and the 3rd party bots should be working fine. Believe E[POD] whould work in Steam and 1.6 They also support Offline feature now, GO DOWNLOAD IT NOW!

Re: PODBot for Steam CS 1.6 or MetaMod available?
 

Heyyo,

Uhh flashon? I already mentioned that back on page 2... :P lol, np, the more reminders, the better. :)
