If you have RTCW, check out this demo!
 
Hello!

I know this for forum is mostly for HL, but its also for bots, and this is a bot related demo.

I'm working on a bot for RTCW (its in alpha state ATM) and I've put together a demo showing off the progress so far. If you, or a friend, has RTCW - please download the attached demo, put it in your "main/demos" folder, type "demo fritz1" at the console and tell me what you think.

"Fritz Bot" is coming..... :)

well, but doesn't RTCW has its 'official' bot ?
AFAIK it's based on Quake3, and it should includes Jan Paul van Waveren's Gladiator bot in the engine.

i don't know Whistler, anyway its good to see someone is trying to make his own bot for another game! RTCW sure is a known game and i bet there are things that can be improved about the bots... ;)

Oops! Thought for sure I had attached it already. For those looking for it, its now attached below.


And no - there was no official bot for RTCW. You may be thinking about the original plans for Enemy Territory (where it would be a retail expansion to RTCW and that IT would include an official bot), but those plans were scrapped by Activision. :(

Fritz has been built from the ground up from scratch - sadly there isn't any bot templates (like HPB) for those in the RTCW community.

Fritz is a capture point bot (capture point is where 2 teams try to control a group of flags scattered across the map).

Ummm, isn't that an ironic question coming from someone who's making a bot based on someone ELSES bot, for a game that DOES have an official bot (CZ is just CS with a new coat of paint)?? o_O

As well as the fact there are nearly 2 dozen different bots out there for CS (half of which are on this forum)! :P

If you're like me, you enjoy making bots and exploring A.I. and its potential, and would probably make a bot for your chosen game no matter what! :)

Even if there were an official bot for RTCW, and dozens of bots for it (like in CS), I'd still make Fritz, because its a lot of fun! :)

And I don't think theres anything wrong with people wanting to make bots, in fact the more the better! I have nearly every bot from this forum, and play them pretty often.

In fact, if it wasn't for the fact I got so hooked on RTCW, CS would be my other choice for making a bot!

You know what I am thinking ?

I am thinking it would be a great idea to have for once a RTCW bot hosted here at Bots United... ;)

What do you all think ?

Re: If you have RTCW, check out this demo!
 
well, but I do have found this in RTCW SDK source code:
Code:

//===========================================================================
//
// Name:        botai.h
// Function:    bot AI
// Programmer:  Mr Elusive (MrElusive@idsoftware.com)
// Last update:  1999-08-18
// Tab Size:    3
//===========================================================================

looks like their official bots is just "disabled" or so... and Jan Paul "MrElusive" van Waveren's AAS seems still in the engine (look at the single player monster AI stuff in the code). So perhaps RTCW bot authors can make use of it.

I don't have RTCW so I don't know about this though...
