Only HL2DM bots I know of, is RCBot ( http://rcbot.bots-united.com/ ) and HurricaneBot ( http://www.hurrikhan.net/ )

But the page to RCBot seems down now, and I don't know if people still working on the HurricaneBot

Your best bet? RCBot 2:
http://filebase.bots-united.com/inde...ct=view&id=260

Here's the waypoints:

If you're feeling lucky? you can give RCBot 2 TF2 alpha test a go too:

You need to install it. There should be informations about that in the included readme files. Read them, for further instructions.

Heyyo,

Np.. lemme give you a quick rundown of how it should look:

Now i'm using my email as an example, but whatever email or username you used to setup steam is where you'd replace my email address.

if you installed steam in the default spot? it should look like this:

Code:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\jagged_jimmy_j@yahoo.com\
and in there you put the "rcbot2" folder which inside has the "waypoints" folder and such.... And then?

Code:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\jagged_jimmy_j@yahoo.com\half life 2 deathmatch\bin
In that "bin" folder needs to go the "HPB_bot2.dll" file.... and once more..

Code:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\jagged_jimmy_j@yahoo.com\half life 2 deathmatch\hl2mp\
In here make a folder and call it "addons".. and inside the addons folder you need to place the "HPB_bot2.vdf" file.

That's it man. It's mainly you just need to know where those three things go.
