Work In progress (WIP) #8.5
BUILD 2097
Released at 08/02/2004

Windows & Linux version available.

memory bug seems to be fixed

you need todo meta refresh (or at least in my case) because as soon as i added 2 bots before doing it, realbot_mm crashed, after the refresh the bug never appears again, im guessing its a bug in metamod that does that.

and they move on round start again, yey.

just csdm till all the maps are waypointed again, hehe

for the next version the bots shouldnt bump into each other and do those super duper hops, that kinda gets annoying and somtimes bots dont always learn when they stuck (thats only somtimes)... maybe the bots should move more back or somthing.. also fix that bug were they run backwards toward you.. well other than that good job. oh yea i would like them to hear the bullets also

is it me or the bots always take the same route..

I got word from Greg (aka Berked, a trusted linux bug finder ) that there was anothe rbug in the experience saving code, i am glad he pointed it out because i never saw why it was a bug... only after reading TWICE the code , lol. Anyway, thats fixed for the next release. Since bugs are almost all squised i will move on to new features.

hmm.... I don't really get it.
On my dedicated server the bots commit suicide at the start of the round.... they don't move, don't buy, don't speak... just a nice clean suicide

Maybe it has something to do with the steam updates today?

Anybody else seen this?

i think stefan needs to set each bot to say cl_fakeclient 1, so that it states that its a bot

or something along those lines

FYI

After upgrading to WIP 8.5 the HLDS crashes 1-2 times a day.
HLDS run on a win2003 Server, and this event message appears in application log

Faulting application hlds.exe, version 4.1.1.1, faulting module realbot_mm.dll, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x0001abc1.

KaptajnKemo,yes it was because of steam's last f***up....uuumm.... I mean update.

hi all!

@DreamLord34
are you certain, it's the steam version?

i can confirm that the WIP #8.5 produces random crashes on a W2K Pro
system with steam version 1.1.2.3, hlds.exe v4.1.1.1 and only
realbot (on adminmod 1.17) running.
if useful, i'll post the dr. watson report.

the predecessor was stable (i'd tested it with and without bots over several
hours)

i've also noticed that some of the bots stay real stupid (cs_assault: bots on
upper gangway won't get down, others get stuck on corners and stuff)

however, i don't want to discredit Stefan's work!
despite these issues IT's GREAT !!
keep hackin'.

Best Bytes®,
Harry

The mass suicide never happened before the febuary 9th steam update, all was fine till then. After the update, when a new round starts, nothing but suicide. Plus, since the update, I'm not the only one that this happend to.
