Please check out my guide, and resond here if you find it useful!
Check out the guide at http://realbot.bots-united.com/howto This guide explains how to install RealBot from scratch. It provides a simple install for metamod and the realbot plugin. |

Linux Please?
Thought by downloading the 3068 version the source code would be in there to work with. To our surprise, it wasn't!? You gonna leave us Linux guys out of this or what? We finally figured out how to compile this in Linux, but now we needed the new code for 3068 so we can run the newest version. There is what the problem was. Code:
Makefile's first line reads: Code:
[gameuser@babby source]$ make Thanks, Krillin |
Re: How to install RealBot? Here is a guide!
Ah linux.
The problem with that is that i do not use Linux, so i can't write a 'fool proof' guide for it. If you can write some for that, i could add that to the guide. Be sure you take the source of realbot from google code (you can grab the latest source there, always). |
Re: How to install RealBot? Here is a guide!
I would be honored to contribute in any way that I can to help make a Linux Server Install Guide. I had one, but I wrote it on the wrong computer and it ended up geting deleted from a format. ( A testing Server of various Linux Distros).
I had to go by trial and error to figure out how to install it and when I did, I made note of what was required . In fact, I posted them here, but I am learning more about what the commands in 'realbot' really do and how they effect the overall functions of their behavior. What I noted is found here in the 'Realbot 1.6 Installation Instructions (LINUX). Found here: http://forums.bots-united.com/showpo...8&postcount=16. I will try to find your souce code for the new version 3068. However, where can I send it to get it posted? Or will you just include it in your download package so Linux Server Admins can just 'unpack', plug-in and go? It is not as easy as it sounds, I hope this current. I miss the 'souce' files being in the .zip download. http://csrealbot.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ The repository did not have them http://code.google.com/p/csrealbot/downloads/list here. How ironic this is not the current build. Not a word to be found here either: http://filebase.bots-united.com/inde...=category&id=1 I can't find it, and I can not waste anymore time hunting it down. Strike-1, Strike-2, Strike-3. Maybe someday it will appear. lol The current build.cpp shows at google code is: Code:

Re: How to install RealBot? Here is a guide!
If you can send me a guide in plain html (like i did with my own guide) i am more then happy.
Btw, the source was not updated yet, i did not check it into the repository yet. I just did check it in, so you can grab the latest. But, beware, i am stuffing it with debug statements and whatnot, so be sure you have realbot print disabled... ow, also, the version i checked in has dontshoot on false on default... sorry, but i am developing this thing now. It would not matter for your guide though, and if you are a bit patient, i will commit a new revision today again if i get time. btw, if you subscribe to the svn repository you will get e-mails whenever i check it in (i think). |
Re: How to install RealBot? Here is a guide!
btw, not every build is a release ;-) so don't bother checking the filebase unless i 'officialy' release it.

Re: How to install RealBot? Here is a guide!
Makes sense to me. I will see if i can find the install.txt I wrote notes in and get the text into an html format and get it to you for Linux Server Installs.
I want to hold off untill you come out with an official release before looking for the source download again. But I have noticed since I reinstalled our Mandriva 2008.0 Linux build and applied 1.1GB of updates, Realbot has been crashing the server 4-5 times in a 24 hour cycle. Which is odd because the last build before I tried to switch Linux Distros, Realbot ran on our server for almost 2 days nonstop! With our July 4th (Independence Day) holiday approaching things are going to get busy until next week. All we are saying is, Take your time, do it right and make it stable. Krillin Untill it is made official, you may want to take a look here to see the Linux Documentation work in progress. lol Real Bot Linux |
Re: How to install RealBot? Here is a guide!
Thanks a lot.
I have made some big improvements last night , you can read the news at my site as well about them (although it mentions just one thing). If you experience crashes, do you have any stacktrace or some sort of debugging information for me to work with? I might track down the bugs that way and get it more stable. |

I regret to report we removed the bot program due to the crashes making the server instable. Server would crash so much players stopped coming back in the server even though Linux has a built-in auto restart. But 12 times a day is too much for players to tolerate I guess. Since removing the bots in 8 days some 1450 + players have enjoied our server. I am almost pleased. I will e-mail the crash test file I made with the error messages if you like. Krillin |
Re: How to install RealBot? Here is a guide!
Hi,
Crashes are bad and need to be fixed. But, in order to test it it would require some testing environment (ie, perhaps you have another server where you also have players joining, but where it is less important when the server crashes?). Any crash report is welcome. |
