Getting Frikbots to work in Quakeworld.

by **redrum** » Fri Mar 30, 2007 9:40 pm

Somehow got the compiler to work

with 94 warnings :cry:

Started the server, loaded the mod, re-started map.

Now when I call for the bot, nothing happens. Impulse 100 has stopped working! Somebody shoot me!

Any more info on that localinfo b_options 1 thing?

New development:

I tried using the saved1 cvar in regular Quake. It worked!
The Frikbots would transfer from map to map!
Then I noticed that the weapons looked somewhat different than the weapons I normally see in Quakeworld. Hmmmmm.

I'm guessing this means I am not getting the full mod working in QW. Which is weird b/c I can spawn bots in QW. I am still playing with the localinfo b_options with no luck.

I guess the qwprogs.dat that came with FrikbotX is not correct. Thats why there are those instructions to make a new one. I think that the instructions are missing something or I did something wrong.

It would be real nice if that localinfo b_options worked.

What should the line look like:

localinfo b_options 1?
localinfo b_options saved1?

In regular Quake it was: saved1 1

God, this reminds me of how much I loathe QuakeWorld. :/

You're probably better off overall following Urre's suggestion of FTE / Darkplaces.

Hey, I've a QW version of OrionBots... but I should make a total rewrite 'cuz it is out of date..
But they're not bad, if you want my bots, post here and I'll upload to shub-hub.

I can make'em change level using a cvar.
When I connect a bot have a global float called "botcount" that will be increasing while connecting bots... And this float is stored at any unused cvar (e.g. temp1)..

Improvements for NQ OrionBots version 2.1 (third release) are underway, but I dunno if QW supports temp1. If supports, then great!

I hear that!

BTW, I was wondering is there a way to have your autoexec.cfg load at the beginning of each new map?
