Bots plugin for Half-Life 2: Deathmatch

[Botrix]

Hi all,

Botrix (BOT's matRIX) is a plugin for HL2DM & TF2, to play with bots. Download[www.famaf.unc.edu.ar].

Alternative download page: use this link[sourceforge.net]

Update: Valve's 20th anniversary update issues are now fixed (only Windows for now), thanks to armaturo.

Feel free to send me your comments here, or if something urgent comes up, please write to:
[e-mail].

Awesome features (check out changelog on my site for more info):
- auto generate waypoints for new maps! (check out 'botrix waypoint analyze toggle' command)
- bots now can open doors and use elevators !!!
- different models for bots (not only combine_soldier!)
- console commands auto-completion
- bunch of new console commands (player protection health / spawn-time, bot's default weapons, map analysis, etc)
- fixed several crashes and bugs

Check out new YouTube's waypoints creation tutorial

I also added some details for waypoint creation on my home page.

Fast install:
- Unzip contents of zip file into MOD folder, i.e.
<SteamDir>/SteamApps/common/Half-Life 2 Deathmatch/hl2mp
- Launch Half-Life 2 Deathmatch with -insecure parameter (In your steam games right click on Half-Life 2 Deathmatch -> Goto properties, click on Set Launch Options and type in -insecure -console; press Ok, start up the game and create a server). Insecure is not required for dedicated servers. Create new game, map dm_underpass.
- Type "botrix bot add" several times at the console to create bots.

Plugin's source code with needed steps for compilation is at https://github.com/borzh/botrix

Enjoy!

You need to set the beta of the game to "steam_legacy", which can be found by right clicking on the game, then clicking properties and betas.

I'm new to this. I set up a waypoint map for dm_sniper, though the bots are really slow and walk around aimlessly. Is this normal? This also happens for stuff like dm_underpass.

Slow bots movement in local play is normal and I can't do nothing about it, sorry. You should try Botrix with dedicated server.

Botrix only allows you to add 1 bot?

Probably your server has 2 player's limit. Set up more players to play with.

You can use command:
botrix bot add [name] [intelligence]
Where [intelligence] is one of: fool stupied normal smart pro

Example: botrix bot add James pro

You can also configurate default bot intelligence:
botrix bot config intelligence pro

Any chance we can have a update generating auto waypoints by default if none are made for a map?

Not really, but you can use the command:
botrix waypoint autocreate on
and start running through the map, waypoints will be automatically added on coords you visit.
I mean each time you move certain distance from the old waypoint, the new one will be added, and so on.
