CODE

This release includes two DLL files.
One which is the normal dll (HPB_Bot2.dll) expects the rcbot2 folder in the users/ directory
Another (HPB_Bot2o.dll) uses the old filesystem position in HL mods folder which either:
   1. expects the rcbot2 folder in the steam / account name directory for non steampipe mods, or...
   2. expects the rcbot2 folder in the steam / common directory for steampipe mods

2 questions:
1) I put HPB_Bot2o on G:\Steam\steamapps\dmitrii_ghetto ... it is right?
2) how to add bot manually? already in version 0.75 i can't add bots automatically in launcher. But I can add bots manually - "rcbot addbot". But in v. 0.76 I can't see this command.. how to do it?

2. I just tried it in the .76 launcher...

to add bots manually from the launcher, use the extras tab, name & value fields. example:

name: rcbot addbot value: 0 2 (for allied rifleman)

then press add button (or change to edit)

It will remember this for your next game launch & will add the bots automatically. You don't need to check the "automatically add bots" box on the save & launch tab for this. Only do that if you are using min/max bots option from that tab.

It doe's seem this was different before, but I haven't used the launcher for a long time?

1. Using the old method/location, should be this for you...

G:\Steam\steamapps\dmitrii_ghetto\Day of Defeat Source\bin\HPB_Bot2o.dll

You may need to edit the rcbot2.vdf from HPB_Bot2.dll to HPB_Bot2o.dll ?

@ Cheeseh

I'm on steampipe, and the installation went smoothly with the installer and launcher. So mine is installed using the documents & settings\Username location (XP) and the HPB_Bot2.dll... So no problem for me...

But there may be a problem with the HPB_Bot2o.dll on a steampipe install?

Just out of curiosity, I replaced the HPB_Bot2.dll with the HPB_Bot2o.dll and edited the rcbot2.vdf to HPB_Bot2o.dll. then I moved the rcbot2 folder to the steamapps\common folder. It didn't work, bots would not join automaticlly, but the dll was loading, and i could add bots manually, but no waypoints loading, etc. the HPB_Bot2o.dll isn't finding the rcbot2 folder in the new location. I also tried moving the rcbot2 folder to steamapps\account folder & just steamapps folder, no luck (tried next to the dod folder too). So I moved it back to documents & settings\user folder and the bots started joining automatically & work, with the HPB_Bot2o.dll now...

This may not apply to non-steampipe, the HPB_Bot2o.dll may work fine for non-steampipe? But it seems it should work for steampipe as well?
