well I thought it would reduce crashes but I just ended up getting the same crashes in metamod, although I have changed a lot of code so I thought I'd upload this one. I found some crashes with bots using some custom weapons and just removed them for now.

rcbot_customloadouts 1

must be ON to let bots use their own custom weapons

https://sourceforge.net/p/rcbot2/code/HEAD/....dll?format=raw

dll goes into tf/addons/

ps you'll need metamod for it to work https://www.sourcemm.net/

Also I'd disable the old rcbot in the mean time!

Ok it's working but my little tester just finished playing tf2 so will let him play it again may be later this afternoon to check it's stability. tnx for the dll test bro!

also forgot to mention that bots can use buff items in this version

Seems stable so far after 2 hours of using it today.

So, I was curious if you (Cheeseh) are planning to transition RCbot2 to a Metamod:s only plugin, for better compatabilty/stability perhaps? If so, should we be testing this out on dod:s & HL2dm? I haven't tried any of the latest test dll's, since they seemed intended for TF2 only...?

Yeah bro this is for tf2 only coz he was getting to much crashes on his tf2 client and custom stuff which is really weird coz mine is very stable on 0.96.

hopefully shouldn't be any problems trying this out on dod:s. let me know if you try

Looks like my engineer bots are only using widowmaker and don't have any wrenches.

Pyros seem to never use their flamethrower when they have a flare gun of some sort.

EDIT: I found one that pulled out a wrench but only when it ran out of ammo... not a single building yet from engineers.

This is weird are you using this version?
http://sourceforge.net/p/rcbot2/code/465/t....dll?format=raw

...Because Engineers should not be adding any custom loadouts over their melee weapon (wrench). Did you install any other weapon randomizer plugins?

I've installed that one and I'm getting the same results with the exception of 1 pyro/engineer at the beginning using their flamethrower/getting a Panic Attack. No, I don't even have SourceMod installed.

ok I'll focus on fixing this

try this version

https://sourceforge.net/p/rcbot2/code/HEAD/....dll?format=raw

its been updated

Feeling good so far. Do these custom loadouts cause FPS drops? Because I'm getting them with custom loadouts enabled.

they could well do -- tf2 is bloated with extra stuff --- there's no other code added except for the fact it's metamod enabled


BTW updated https://sourceforge.net/p/rcbot2/code/HEAD/....dll?format=raw

again

here are the changes

Values in hookinfo.ini should be updated. And hookinfo doesn't update runplayer values, they are the same, that are fixed in config.

if they aren't getting custom weapons if that's what you mean -- actually the code needs updating -- I've updated it but haven't uploaded yet. Do some values not load form hookinfo ini ?

Yes, runplayer_cmd_tf2 doesn't. If in config it's set to 418 and in hookinfo it's set to 417, then the value would be 418. It should be 417, shouldn't it?

The bot loads the config.ini file second and the hookinfo.ini first. So config.ini will override the value. I'd remove it from config.ini . I'll update the installer/launcher at some point

I can confirm that with the metamod version of custom loadout rcbots is heavily dropping my FPS (24 max bots with both with metamod and normal). Also, my scouts are only using Force-of-Natures and engineers are only using widowmaker.

Yeah it does on me too reason why I went back to the non-metamod version and CHeeseh seems super busy lately hope he drops by soon.
