Install folders on TF2 dedicated server, (HLDSUpdateTool installed) Options

[Weasel]

I'm trying to setup the Alpha test on my TF2 server.
Please forgive me, I'm a little confused about the paths.

My dedicated server is installed via HLDSUpdateTool.
Consequently, there is no "steamapps" or any such folder on my server.

Base folder is:

CODE

C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf

So, do I do this:

• Put "rcbot2" folder like this: C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf\rcbot2
• Put HPB_Bot2.dll into C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf\bin

Does that sound right?

Can I put rcbot2 under C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf\addons? or must it be directly under the TF base folder?

Hi, I followed LordSkitch's instructions to load rcbot on a TF2 dedicated server but it does not work: it founds the interfaces, loads the profiles and displays the license, but then typing in remote console rcbot addbot says
Unknown command "rcbot"

however plugin_print displays
0: "RCBot2 Plugin, by Cheeseh"

any idea?
thanks

typing in remote console

if you are using rcon then you need to use rcbotd command, not rcbot command

also I'm not sure if it works in dedicated servers

Thanks, rcbotd worked fine

It worked, you only have to add bot manually and later put them under control of rcbot.
I tried 12 bots on turbine with a couple of human players, i don't know if this is a problem of rcbot on a dedicated server or rcbot in general, but most of the times bots do not attack each other: they collide with players of the opposite team, stop, start jumping to get away, collide again... and never shoot a bullet/rocket/pipe.

I had this glitch too. and if you kill a bot, the server crashes.

It's a speed problem along with the too big gravity thing.
