I didn't know where else to post this because I couldn't find a general discussions forum here that is on topic but I was wondering if I could customize the profiles by model and color. By this I mean I would rather the bots not spawn as random things such as mushrooms, robots, or multi colored barney calhouns. I thought I read something about it in the folder I just could not for the life of me figure it out.
Hi AIgnatiousS,
I haven't tried this myself, but here is how to set the model type...
http://rcbot.bots-united.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1579
There is a rcbot_botprofile_readme.txt that comes with rcbot1 that does say top & bottom color can be set too. I have no idea what the numbers are to do it, but I assume it is a half-life variable that is documented some where (screen colors?).
I appreciate the help. I'm still working on it, but this is where I'm at so far.
So I got the colors working and broke down how many profiles there were so that it wasn't as random. But I haven't been able to make the model command work, whatever I'm doing wrong is causing my client to crash whenever I spawn the bot using that command line.
model=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Half-Life\bshift\models\player\barney\barney.mdl
Ok, so I changed it to this.
model="C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Half-Life\svencoop\models\player\barney\barney.mdl"
It's now a model from the svencoop folder plus I added quotations around the file location.
It doesn't crash anymore, but every model I do in this way spawns as a HEV with Helmet orange. Although, this is a lot better than giant mushrooms running around the map, I feel like I have to do this right now.
I've given up. Everything I've tried has failed in either keeping the model at a hev suit or crashing my game.
