A way to play against bots ?

[Skipspik]

Hi,
Is there a way, through a mod probably, to play against a bot ?
Maybe a muliplayer bot me & the bot ?
A dedicated Mod ?

I can see that a skirmish mod is something wanted, still not ? (I do understand the problemns of unlimited spawn....)

Any way to play casualy outside the campaigns ?

It seems that the Throwback mod have an IA. Can somebody confirm ?

IIRC the mod called Sand of Siberia ( http://www.moddb.com/mods/sand-of-siberia, http://serpent-site.pl/download ) used to add few skirmishes (you can choose side, AI difficulty..), although I'm not sure about language support.

SO I tried it.
Yeah there is a kind of skirmishing.
Quite hard actually, even in easy mode.
It's like an endless defense map of a campaign.

Notice that the mod do change a bit the gameplay. Extra technologies, plant that does more for some nations...that kind of stuff.


EDIT/ I tried sand of siberia. Not throwback (not yet I guess x) )

You can play against a "fake AI" if you start OW editor and load Throwback's Silent Hill for instance. Other maps they made also contain "fake AIs" but I can't remember their names. They were meant to be played as a 2vsAI in Multiplayer mode. Another way to do it is to add -multi to Original War parameters (.exe) and start a multiplayer room with Throwback loaded, then pick Silent Hill or any other coop map, and start the game (you can start several instances of Original War by using -multi, so you can join the room twice).

there is no -multi parameter with Original War. There was a multiowar paramter (OW params don't have a - ) but its been redundent for a long time (You can launch more than one Original War without any paramters)
