Cant install E[POD]Bot
 

Lo all.

I would like to set up E[POD]Bot on my CS 1.6 install, (not HLDS).
I hve tried installing the my@email.com, counter-strike, and cstrike folders, but when i make a server, P or podbotmenu just brings up 'unknown command 'podbotmenu'.

ty in advance ;)

try installing it again, and make sure the liblist.gam is read only. STEAM has a tendency to overwrite the liblist.gam when it is not matching 'its original', therefor disabeling bot support.

to make readonly:
right-click on liblist.gam, click -> properties ,in window, check "READ ONLY".

Thanks a lot, i thought it might be that.

Which folder do i install to? This mod seems quite underdocumented;)

Re: Cant install E[POD]Bot
 

I suppose you install it like podbot, i.e. in the same folder where the liblist.gam file is.

i got it to install correctly to 1.6. but it says every time i load a server (lan) it says cs_assault.pwf does not exist! you cant add bots! as well for any other map i load... can someone explain this to me or how to fix this..?

the modes work.. knife mode.. etc. but i cant add bots due to the missing pwf... but its there becuz it comes with the bots..

Re: Cant install E[POD]Bot
 

curious indeed... the PWF files need to be in the maps folder, which is supposed to be aside the podbot folder. If this folder doesn't exist, try creating it and put your .pwf files in it.

Re: Cant install E[POD]Bot
 

hmmm did that and the message still comes up.. but every else works... knife mode everything works. but the waypoints just arent loading it says every time cs_ or de_ pwf does not exist.

Re: Cant install E[POD]Bot
 

OK i've installed it properly now, but when I make my own server I get the 'HL.exe has encountered a problemo etc etc...' when I get to my motd.

I have had this error before but now like this :'(

Re: Cant install E[POD]Bot
 

Try deleting the pxp file for the map you are loading and try again.
The pxp files are created automatically for each map and they are find in the same folder as the pwf.

So for example if you are trying to load de_dust go to the folder that has your waypoint files and delete the file de_dust.pxp

Let me know if this helps.

There arn't any pxp's, so podbot cant of loaded very far :/
