CTmodels x.mdl and xT.mdl

[miopalmo]

Hi all,
I have the following problem.
I have installed the CSRU skin pack in CS 1.6.
I have following configuration.

Mean mod (latest version)
metamod (latest version)
podbot (latest version)
WC3 Ultimate


The problem is the following, when I start playing the CT are not affected much by enemy fire, and you need to really fire a lot to kill the CT bots. Tbots work properly.

I noticed that when I remove the CT models, everything works properly.
I also noticed that when I reinstall the x.mdl CT models and when I use one of the terrorist xT.mdl and copy-paste them with their respective names in the CT player folders, the following occurs:

If I am not playing with mean mod, everything works fine.

If I reinstall mean mod, the CT start to TK. Maybe this is due to the fact that I am using a T xT.mdl and maybe there is a confusion.

I have read in several posts, ``eople asked what type of skins you use. Also, if you take a look many skins do only contain the x.mdl files and not the xT.mdl files.

Do I need these xT.mdl files for the players?
What is the need for such files?
Is there any known problems with player skin and mean behaviour?
Thanks in advance

The problem is that mEAn identifies the team the bots and other players are on by the name of the skin that is in use. When you switch the skins around, mEAn is getting confused. If you can rename the new skins so that at least the first 2 letters match the names that were originally used, then all will be well again.

There may be a better way of identifying teams then through the skin name, if so then someone in here knows how I can do it.

Botmeister,
I do not get what you say, to change the name of the skins? But, they are all set and constant, urban, sas...

I have found the following as well, I have erased all skins from the skin pack CSRU and with the normal CS models it happens again:
t bots no problem
CT bots are all Tkllers, all of them, except my self...

Interestingly this only happens with the CT models:
maybe this is something to do with the additional plugins:
extranade (i doubt it)
WC3 ultimate (maybe)
I will get rid of everything and work with podbot_mm and tell you if I still have the same problem.

Another possibility is that I have something in the mean files that is causing this problem, I actually have not changed anything from the installation files except for the listenserver.cfg file which looks like:
____________________-
// Use this file to configure your DEDICATED server.
// This config file is executed on server start.

// disable autoaim
sv_aim 0

// disable clients' ability to pause the server
pausable 0

// this MUST be set to "0" or some bots will not join server

// this MUST be set to "0" if you want the bots to stay on the team

// This will set the server for bots against human players

m_enforcebotteam off

// as a ratio of 1.5 bots for every human player.
m_autobalancebots on 4 10 12

This listenserver.cfg file is the only thing that I changed after isntalling mean. I have not had the oportunity to customize it.


m_botmode botvshuman, this option is made for having one team with bots and another with humans. How can I have two bot teams fighting each other , and me joing here or there?
Thanks in advance

Try this:

m_autosteamswitch off
m_enforcebotteam off
m_switchbotteam any

Note: Before using these commands, it's a good idea to look up each of them in MEANcommands.txt and read the full descriptions.

You config settings look fine to me. Try and narrow it down to whatever it is that you install that makes the problem appear, and go away when uninstalled, or if it just happenes when mEAn is installed with nothing else.

Botmeister,

I unistalled everything and have running
mean
podbot_mm

the problem continues: CT are tkillers, t OK
I have the defeault models of CS 1.6

If I do not have mean, there is no problem.

If I reinstall mean, problem continues.
What can I do? I guess there is a problem between podbot_mm and mean and I do not know how to contine, any suggestions?
thanks

It seems that with the option
m_botaimfix off the problem is solved.

[botmeister]

Try turning ,_botaimfix back on, and set this CVAR

m_tkbotsshootback 0

Let me know what happens.
