RCBot Forums _ TF2 _ Rcbot2 for metamod plus custom loadouts
Posted by: Cheeseh Mar 7 2015, 01:58 AM
well I thought it would reduce crashes but I just ended up getting the same crashes in metamod, although I have changed a lot of code so I thought I'd upload this one. I found some crashes with bots using some custom weapons and just removed them for now.
rcbot_customloadouts 1
must be ON to let bots use their own custom weapons
https://sourceforge.net/p/rcbot2/code/HEAD/tree/utils/RCBot2_meta/Debug/rcbot2meta.dll?format=raw
dll goes into tf/addons/
ps you'll need metamod for it to work https://www.sourcemm.net/
Also I'd disable the old rcbot in the mean time!

Ok it's working but my little tester just finished playing tf2 so will let him play it again may be later this afternoon to check it's stability. tnx for the dll test bro!
Posted by: Cheeseh Mar 7 2015, 11:00 PM
also forgot to mention that bots can use buff items in this version
Posted by: genmac Mar 9 2015, 09:49 AM
Seems stable so far after 2 hours of using it today.

So, I was curious if you (Cheeseh) are planning to transition RCbot2 to a Metamod:s only plugin, for better compatabilty/stability perhaps? If so, should we be testing this out on dod:s & HL2dm? I haven't tried any of the latest test dll's, since they seemed intended for TF2 only...?
Posted by: genmac Mar 10 2015, 05:13 AM
Yeah bro this is for tf2 only coz he was getting to much crashes on his tf2 client and custom stuff which is really weird coz mine is very stable on 0.96.

hopefully shouldn't be any problems trying this out on dod:s. let me know if you try

Looks like my engineer bots are only using widowmaker and don't have any wrenches.
Pyros seem to never use their flamethrower when they have a flare gun of some sort.
EDIT: I found one that pulled out a wrench but only when it ran out of ammo... not a single building yet from engineers.

This is weird are you using this version?
http://sourceforge.net/p/rcbot2/code/465/tree/utils/RCBot2_meta/Debug/rcbot2meta.dll?format=raw
...Because Engineers should not be adding any custom loadouts over their melee weapon (wrench). Did you install any other weapon randomizer plugins?

I've installed that one and I'm getting the same results with the exception of 1 pyro/engineer at the beginning using their flamethrower/getting a Panic Attack. No, I don't even have SourceMod installed.

Feeling good so far. Do these custom loadouts cause FPS drops? Because I'm getting them with custom loadouts enabled.

they could well do -- tf2 is bloated with extra stuff --- there's no other code added except for the fact it's metamod enabled
BTW updated https://sourceforge.net/p/rcbot2/code/HEAD/tree/utils/RCBot2_meta/Debug/rcbot2meta.dll?format=raw
again
here are the changes
QUOTE
custom load out support for sudden death
fixed lunchbox drink and buff item
added projectile prediction for cow mangler
fixed bots not changing weapons and not firing at enemies
Posted by: Ilhom Apr 11 2015, 09:33 AM
Values in hookinfo.ini should be updated. And hookinfo doesn't update runplayer values, they are the same, that are fixed in config.

if they aren't getting custom weapons if that's what you mean -- actually the code needs updating -- I've updated it but haven't uploaded yet. Do some values not load form hookinfo ini ?
Posted by: Ilhom Apr 11 2015, 02:06 PM
Yes, runplayer_cmd_tf2 doesn't. If in config it's set to 418 and in hookinfo it's set to 417, then the value would be 418. It should be 417, shouldn't it?

The bot loads the config.ini file second and the hookinfo.ini first. So config.ini will override the value. I'd remove it from config.ini . I'll update the installer/launcher at some point

I can confirm that with the metamod version of custom loadout rcbots is heavily dropping my FPS (24 max bots with both with metamod and normal). Also, my scouts are only using Force-of-Natures and engineers are only using widowmaker.
Posted by: genmac Jun 10 2015, 12:19 AM
Yeah it does on me too reason why I went back to the non-metamod version and CHeeseh seems super busy lately hope he drops by soon.

the reason why is because TF2 suddenly decided to change the classnames of the other weapons. The pomson 6000 is now tf_weapon_drg_pomson. Rescue Ranger is now tf_weapon_shotgun_building_rescue . The Frontier Justice is now tf_weapon_sentry_revenge. instead of just being shotgun like it used to be. And the bot only has a limited amount of weapons it can use. I'll try updating at some point

I'm terribly busy I'm afraid. I'll get about two hours a week to do anything on my own - but recently as you know I've just been trying out GTA V
Now I'm working on a visa to leave the country with my wife and baby which won't be easy so I'll still be busy until all that's sorted.
Posted by: genmac Jun 18 2015, 02:45 AM
Oh GTA 5 rocks but I'm too lazy to play it hehe...gta 1 I did played ions ago and I think I don't really want to do that again...those cod games really made me a lazy gamer lol!
Good luck on the visas I'm sure you can sort those out soon...best wishes to your family and stuff! ;-)
Posted by: Cheeseh Jun 19 2015, 06:40 AM
try the latest dll from the same source
https://sourceforge.net/p/rcbot2/code/HEAD/tree/utils/RCBot2_meta/Debug/rcbot2meta.dll?format=raw
I also added "rcbot2path" key in the metamod VDF for rcbot2. Create a vdf for rcbot 2 in the metamod folder like this
"Metamod Plugin"
{
"alias" "RCBot2"
"file" "addons/rcbot2meta"
"rcbot2path" "C:\Users\Paul\rcbot2\"
}
if you want to change install directory
Posted by: Cheeseh Jun 20 2015, 03:37 PM
I'm adding a weapon set INI file next so if anything changes it can be edited by the end user
e.g.
weapons.ini
CODE
"RCBotWeapons"
{
"TF2"
{
"tf_weapon_pipebomblauncher"
{
"slot" "1"
"id" "20"
"minPrimDist" "0.0"
"maxPrimDist" "1000.0"
"m_iAmmoIndex" "2"
"m_iPreference" "1"
}
"tf_weapon_flamethrower"
{
"slot" "0"
"id" "21"
"minPrimDist" "0.0"
"maxPrimDist" "400.0"
"m_iAmmoIndex" "1"
"m_iPreference" "3"
"flags"
{
"primary_attack" "1"
"melee" "1"
"hold_attack" "1"
"special" "1"
"can_deflect_rockets" "1"
}
}
...

I've added the new DLL (same link)
extract weapons.zip into rcbot2/config/
you can change the weapons.
and you can now do this in bot_mods.ini
mod = TF2
steamdir = tf2
gamedir = tf
bot = TF2
weaponlist = TF2
you can change the weaponlist
Attached File(s)
weapons.zip ( 1.98k )
Number of downloads: 405

Seems to be working great, but so far, I'm only seeing 3 or 4 different hats on the bots. But otherwise, keep up the good work!
Posted by: BlueCheese Aug 30 2015, 01:53 AM
Metamod says that the plugin is loaded, and I did the command, but the bot still use their stock weapons. How to fix?

I already did the command, then I restart the server. But still, I have stock weapons.
Also, I cannot use rcbott_customloadouts unless I have started a game at least once. Is this supposed to happen?
Am I supposed to do this in the console? And which "addons" folder do I install to? I have 2 addons folders : one in common and the other in my username folder.

What is the ID supposed to be?
Just 1 more than the previous number used?
UPDATE
So I tested a new weapon at ID 48 and sure enough it crashed the same way as when I added weapons the old fashioned way.
Using the same IDs also results in crashes.

This is a beta page for a function which is included in the new RCBot 1.0; Ignore this thread.

you can use these as weapon ids
https://wiki.alliedmods.net/Team_Fortress_2_Item_Definition_Indexes
they must be unique so no weapon can share the same id

Imagine if they had custom taunts e.g. Kazotsky Kick? I wish I had that taunt, but you need a credit card or bank card to get money on steam.

Ikr, the conga was popular, and they spiced it up with the kazotsky kick plus better music
Posted by: genmac Oct 26 2015, 03:57 AM
Hehe oh the conga LOL!
I'm having so much fun playing Payload Race didn't quite noticed this maps at first but now their definitely on my fav map rotation from now on and Rcbots really shines on this mode!
