Pod-Bots crash Steam (cant create a game)
 

Hello!

I have a little problem with Pod-bots and steam (cs 1.6).
When i create a game, it returns to windows..

I had Joe-bots previously installed on steam and i've installed Pod-bots on it :/
(didnt know how to uninstall Joe-bot..).
So my config certainly has a problem due to that but i dont know how to resolve it?

Here is my liblist.gam:

Quote:

game "Counter-Strike" url_info "www.counter-strike.net" url_dl "" version "1.6" size "184000000" svonly "0" secure "1" type "multiplayer_only" cldll "1" hlversion "1111" nomodels "1" nohimodel "1" mpentity "info_player_start" gamedll "/addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll" gamedll_linux "/addons/metamod/dlls/podbot_mm_i386.so trainmap "tr_1"

And here is the metamod's plugins.ini:

Quote:

win32 podbot/podbot_mm.dll

Thanks in advance if you can help me, because i'm making a map for cs and i'd really like to see how the rain is looking on my map.

PS: i dont know what version of Pod-bots i got, i dont find any credits so here is the changelog i've found on the "versionhistory.txt" if that can help you:

First try to check the date of creation of podbot_mm.dll and write us what You can see. Is this really this file's name "podbot_mm.dll"? Or maybe You use "podbot.dll" (this changelog...)?
In this second case it's impossible work under Steam.

I know nothing about JoeBot, but try this, maybe it's suffiscient to uninstall JoeBot:

If Joebot is not-metamod gamedll try to find this line (or similar) in Your autoexec.cfg in the CSTRIKE directory:

localinfo mm_gamedll "joebot/joebot.dll"
or
localinfo mm_gamedll "joebot/joebot_i386.so"

and simply delete it.

If You use metamod version of this bot - You need delete a call to joebot.dll (or similar name dll) in plugins.ini in metamod directory.

Thanks for your help :)

Yes i have a file called Podbot_mm.dll located in cstrike/podbot (i dont have podbot.dll). It has been created in Monday 12 april 2004

And for Joe-bot, i think it was the metamod version. But i dont have the autoexec.cfg file in cstrike, and i also dont have the joebot.dll (i've deleted the Joebot folder in cstrike)

EDit: i've just made a search and found the Pod-bots installer that i've used:

raahh i'm going crazy!!

I really dont know why I can create a game anymore.. Why is it so complicated??

I've tried to resolve my problem by downloading a lots of stuff, metamod1.16; 1.17, metamod for steam, the last release of podbots (just saw it on this forum)... and write,rewrite,overwrite thoses damn liblist.gam and plugins.ini and it still dont works!! (bam!return to windows)

Here is my last configuration:
I have steam with CS1.6 and i want Pod-bots working on it. So i've installed metamod from here:
http://www.amxmodx.org/metamodx.php

Then i've downloaded the last Pod-bots:
http://forums.bots-united.com/showthread.php?t=1493

Metamod is located in:
Steamapps/email/Counter-strike/cstrike/addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll

Pod-bots is there:
Steamapps/email/Counter-strike/cstrike/addons/podbot

The plugins.ini (wich is in the metamod directory) looks like this:
And the liblist.gam (have read somewhere that this file isn't working with Steam..):

Quote:

game "Counter-Strike" url_info "www.counter-strike.net" url_dl "" version "1.6" size "184000000" svonly "0" secure "1" type "multiplayer_only" cldll "1" hlversion "1111" nomodels "1" nohimodel "1" mpentity "info_player_start" gamedll "/addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll" gamedll_linux "/addons/metamod/dlls/podbot_mm_i386.so" trainmap "tr_1"

And all that stuff runs under Windows XP..
And i can't uninstall CS cause it seems that CS-CZ is using it o_O
So i need help please, i'm desesperate!!

EDIT: ok i've just read the thread below (under?) mine and the answer was in it :D
Was the bug with the mp.dll, i've "reinitialised" it and now it works! So thanks to the other thread 8)

...and you don't like editing the liblist.gam any time after steam update, you can download an fixed version in the filebase.
