MvM support?, failed to load bots... Options

[genmac]

I see there are atleast 4 mvm wpts already but can't seem to load any bots on those wpted maps like mvm_bigrock.
Is it fully supported? I think I've read it is already but seems they just won't load on my end.
even tf bots itself won't load on my listen server.
Any solution?

This mode is kinda fun .

mvm is supported

you've got to change the number of maximum players to quite high because the Mvm mode uses tfbots as enemy bots which take up player slots. so they might fill up the server, meaning no space for rcbot. add rcbot manually using rcbot addbot at the beginning then start the round.

I see.....ok it's now working and my old pc is starting to lag hehe seems the additional AI is giving it quite a work out. I spawned 4 btw and thier doing really well so far. I max out their settings. 2 defender bots seems less strain on my rig.

Here's another problem....I'm stuck at 40% and the progress meter ain't moving down anymore no matter how many bots I slaughter.
So is this a bug? or am I missing something?

also what's the console command to spawn just red bots and specific class?

well there's usualy some mvm bot running around somewhere you just got to find it, but it could be a bug with no bots spawning due to the player slot limit.

red team is 2 and classes are :
1 scout
2 sniper
3 soldier
4 demo
5 medic
6 hwguy
7 pyro
8 spy
9 engi

rcbot addbot <class> <team>

i.e.

rcbot addbot 8 2

adds red spy

If you mean spawning just red TFbots, it's tf_bot_add red <classname>

The slot limit hardly comes up in MvM, since WaveSpawn robots don't spawn if teams are full (this will only come up with 6+ defender teams and/or custom .pop files with poor WaveSpawns) and will wait for any WaveSpawn created bunch of robots to die, then they will spawn.

Did that 40% issue happen with official missions or custom ones?

@Fillmore ...I just run the stock mvm maps via menus on a listenserver.
I've put 100 on maxplayers and that fix the defender rcbots to spawn tnx to CHeeseh's advice. But I can't complete wave 1 coz it get's stuck at around 40% of the meter above screen. So I just skip waves using some tf_mvm commands and I can only complete a level when I destroy the tank and those bigger bots...but without those some levels would get stuck at around 10-20% no matter how many bots i kill.
I just play solo most of the time to keep my old pc from lagging too much since wave 4-6 at coaltown has too many bots already....damn this mode is definitely for powerful pc only LoL!

I think I need to create some cfg mvm files or use custom maps?
or create a dedi for this and connect from there?

hey Cheeseh tnx for console commands, hehe forgot to look at the manual first for those.

MvM is so refreshing, it's basically L4D but againts robots hehe.
