Can I use Shrikebot without having Steam or WON?

Hi,

I have an installation of CS 1.5 that I use just to play in local mode, no Internet connection and PODBot. I basically start a LAN game every time. So, I've been thinking about playing DoD in a similar fashion. Will your bot install/work for a similar setup? Of course, after I download and install DoD.

Thanks.

Ok, I'm still looking for an answer to my question. Have not found any information on the Internet.

Basically, if I install the full HL1-1.5 or CS-1.5, then the dod full client, can I use the latest shrikebot just like I use PODBot to play offline?

Thanks in advance,

Yes you can.

Thanks.

I downloaded Dod version 1.0 from planethalflife/dod and got the latest shrikebot. Installed them both, edited the liblist.gam file in the DoD folder to read the shrikebot dll. When I start the DoD game, it crashes to the desktop. Do I have the right DoD version? Should I get an older shrikebot version?

Thanks again.

Well I'm not sure witch one is the latest DOD version that work on WON and shrikebot version that work with it, just do a little tring.

Well, so far I've figured out that v1.0 of DoD is newer than v3.1. I've been in IT for 12 years and that versioning scheme does not make sense to me.

Anyway, shrikebot 2.3.1 will not load for any of those versions and it will not load for HL 1.0.0.9 or 1.1.1.0.

Ok, I was told at Shrikebot's main forum that I won't be able to accomplish this task. I guess shrikebot never worked with earlier version of DoD prior to Steam's version.

Oh well, it was fun trying to figure it out. LOL I even went as far as unpacking DoD's gcf file, but of course, it didn't work.
