Why does JoeBOT doesn't work?

Hi folks!
I have a little HL/CS-Server at Home... It runs on Linux.
The Distribution is called "Devil-Linux"
My Linux HLDS-Version is 3.1.1.1. and the CS-Version is 1.5
And shortly I have installed MetaMod 1.17.

Everything is working fine, but I can't get JoeBOT 1.6.5.1 running...

Before I installed MetaMod, HLDS said "Host_Error: Couldn't get DLL API from ./cstrike/joebot/joebot_i386.so!"

But the directory and the filename are right...

And with MetaMod simply NOTHING happens...
MetaMod DOESN'T say "plugin loaded"...
Just a "normal" CS-Server is started...
When I type "joebot addbot"... Nothing happens...
When I type "addbot"... Nothing happens...

I tried the HPB_bot, and this bot works fine... But I prefer JoeBOT...

That's the plugins.ini:
"linux joebot/joebot_mm_i386.so"

Here again, the path is right and the filename is right...

This is, how I start the server:
"./hlds_run -game cstrike -noipx +maxplayers 32 +sv_lan 1 +map cs_siege"

Can someone help me, please?

P.S.: Excuse me, if I write in bad english (I'm from Germany)...

Re: Why does JoeBOT doesn't work?

Okay... I've tried to install JoeBOT on CS 1.6... But... Nothing works...
Not the "normal"-Version and the MetaMod-Version too...

I also figured out, that older JoeBOT-Versions doesn't work, too...
Why?

Re: Why does JoeBOT doesn't work?

funny, I only run cs1.5 and joebot doesnt make any problems ...

I guess you already read http://server.bots-united.com/wiki/i...stall%20JoeBot

so, after a normal installation the joebot.dll should be in halflife/joebot for mods or for cs retail in coutner-strike/joebot ... and then you copied that dll to the joebot folder inside the cstrike folder, is that right ? If you are running joebot nonmetamod, you don't have to do this, although it's not preventing joebot from working, as long as you also edit the cstrike/liblist.gam entry. This file get's btw overwritten by installing to the right folder.

Re: Why does JoeBOT doesn't work?

JoeBOT is correctly installed and configured...
But it doesn't work...

Since I opened this thread, i've installed MetaMod, AdminMod, Monster_Plugin, chicken_mod, HPB_bot and statsme on both "normal"-CS 1.5 and CS 1.6 (steam)...

But JoeBOT still doesn't work...
I could use RealBot, but RealBot has a really high CPU-Usage...
And HPB_Bot runs smooth... But the Bots are very stupid...

Thank you for the answer!
