27 yrs old. Started out as primary contributor(waypoints & scripts) to Foxbot for TFC, during which I was in school for Game Development. Now working in Los Angeles at Pandemic Studios as an AI Programmer, so life is good.
Followed the United bot concept for quite some time but was frustrated at its apparently lack of progress. When I graduated I started my own new bot from scratch with the intention of supporting multiple engines and mods. 2.5 years later, Omni-bot has evolved into a pretty good framework, supporting ETF, Enemy Territory(etpub, jaymod, noquarter), Quake 4, and HL2-DM(internally), and Fortress Forever.
Bot work still going strong, with a recent big release for ET and a soon to be released update for Quake 4 1.4 patch, which includes a few fixes for bot support from id software. Still waiting on SDK changes from Valve for server plugin bots, which seem to have partially contributed to some inactivity of bots for many people.
