RCBot2 Installer 2019 Options

[Cheeseh]

With an increasing number of people struggling to install RCBot2 I've created an installer for windows listen server. Download here:

http://rcbot.bots-united.com/downloads/RCBot2Installer.zip

extract and run setup.exe

This installs the latest version from my GitHub to all three mods (Tf2/dod:s/hl2 dm) and updates all hook info automatically as long as you are connected to internet when installing.

Remember the bot offsets may differ between TF2 and DOD:S so it comes with a MOD changer in the config folder when installed. HL2DM will always be installed correctly.





(IF YOU DON'T DO THE ABOVE THE SERVER MAY CRASH!)

Note: If you encounter crashes on cp/pl maps please follow the instructions below:

1. disable auto bot joining
2. change map to cp_dustbowl
3. after the map starts do not join , just enter the command "rcbot debug mstr_offset_search"
4. it will give you a number, write it down
5. in console type "rcbot_const_mstr_offset <number>" with the number
6. now you may add bots
7. enter "rcbot_const_mstr_offset <number>" with the number into rcbot2/config/config.ini to make this automatic (or put in autoexec.cfg)

Topic is a check on your installer - Found 5 files are left behind after a uninstall.

I was just about to update my installer and was checking your installer (I always install in a desktop directory first so its clean.)

I used the normal uninstall for windows in the legacy control panel "add remove programs" (my install is windows 10 64bit)

I noticed theses 5 files are not deleted and left behind 2X msi installer support files in the "common" folder and 3 rcbot2.vdf in each game directory...

common
HookInfoUpdate.InstallState
VDFMaker.InstallState

common/Day of Defeat Source/dod/addons/metamod
rcbot2.vdf

common/Half-Life 2 Deathmatch/hl2mp/addons/metamod
rcbot2.vdf

common/Team Fortress 2/tf/addons/metamod
rcbot2.vd

Image from directory printer...


I know how annoying that is when making installers, so easily done

Cheers
