ZDoom's bots seem excessively... stupid. 0 Share this post Link to post
ruffj05 Posted October 30, 2005 i copy pasted what you wrote into a file i made named "bots.cfg" in the same directory zdoomgl is in, and got the same result; " couldn't spawn bot; no bot left in bots.cfg " suggestions anybody? 0 Share this post Link to post
Kenny McCormick Posted October 30, 2005 You sure it's saved as bots.cfg and not bots.cfg.txt? Do this to check:Start Run cmd cd <replace me without the brackets with your bots.cfg directory> dir /p Now if your bots.cfg file says really bots.cfg.txt, or whatever, do this:rename bots.cfg.<extension> bots.cfg 0 Share this post Link to post
ruffj05 Posted October 30, 2005 its not .cfg.txt, and i have "show file extensions" on so i knew it from the start. 0 Share this post Link to post
Quast Posted October 31, 2005 bots.cfg needs to be in a separate folder named zcajun in the zdoomgl dir 0 Share this post Link to post

[/B] oh lord you were right, zdooms bots are about as smart as a slice of pizza. they dont even open doors! how pathetic. i have zdaemon, so do i have to use a different code for zdaemons bots? id rather use zdaemon, so help me with them if you can, thanks. 0 Share this post Link to post
EarthQuake Posted November 8, 2005 ZDaemon is built off of ZDoom, so setting up the bots are exactly the same. 0 Share this post Link to post
