weird.. no commands!! bots in server.. help asap

ok i rent a counterstrike server from a rental company and i want to add some bots to my server to help get popularity.. or some people that will join.. cause you know nobody is going to join a server with nobody in it.

I instlaled ivpbot to my ftp and i started my server and hooray it worked.. 7 bots were in there playing.. but when i join my game.. i have no admin mod commands and i have no ivpbot commands.. but it must be working because i have bots in my server.. please help me and tell me how to get my admin mod commands back and how to use the ivp bot commands.. when i hit the += nothing happens...


thanks, eric

You're trying to use a Lan server menu which isn't going to work..


From the IVPBot manual..

Running POD-Bot on Win32 Dedicated servers:

Install POD-Bot as described above and create a game the way you normally would.
When running a dedicated server the POD-Bot commands that are normally
available in the client console are disabled. To create a bot you
must set the CVAR "pb" to the command you desire.. To use the "pb" CVAR you
would use one of the following commands on the dedicated server command line...

pb "addbot"
pb "addbot 100 5"
pb "addbot 20 1 DumbAss"

In addition these commands are supported:
pb "fillserver 5" (Fills server with auto-assigned Bots)
pb "fillserver 1" (Fills server with Terrorist Bots)
pb "fillserver 2" (Fills server with Counter Bots)
pb "removebots" (Disconnects all Bots from the Game)
pb "killbots" (Kills all Bots in the current round)
pb "newmap mapname" (Changes the Map)

etc etc check the manual.

ok so thats how to get it to work.. now will my adminmod work... cause before i had the ivp bots in there and i couldnt even enter my password.. it said unknown command on everything it typed
