Do not have access to the folder /half-life, Read on it will explain Options

[Snake_Doc]

I reciently purchased a rack server also to run a second server.
I Have rcbot runing on my server here where I have access to the root half-life directory.

But here is my issue.
On the rack server I do not have access to the root half-life directory.
Is there a way to plug the rcbot folder under the directory which I do have access to (the /half-life/nsp directory)

Any info would be great.
Would like to put bots on the server untill peak times when there are players.

Thanks for any input all.

Unfortuanatly, putting it into the nsp & ns folder is the most common reason that people cant get RcBot to work. Half life root or dedicated server root is the place to install RcBot.

Try this instead: The method does not need half life to be installed to be honest, and you only need to make sure you are using metamod

Download Steam Dedicated Server and install wherever it is convinient eg:

d:\dedicated Server

or even wipe whatever is in the present NSP directory if that is the only folder you can get access to, as you do mention you do-not have root access eg:

d:\halflife\nsp

and install steam dedicated server into there.

Download Natural Selection Dedicated Server

make a directory called ns (valid for V3beta5) within the NSP directory so the folder structure now looks like:

d:\halflife\nsp\ns

install V3 NS dedicated server into this folder

add another directory called rcbot, within the NSP folder thus:

d:\halflife\nsp\rcbot

install rcbot into this folder

That should get you working if you are having problems with alias's etc (Hope it all makes sense...)

Ps: dont forget to install metamod into the addons directory
