Installing Whichbots & Rcbots Together

ByekaByeka Name changed from Freak83Toronto Join Date: 2003-03-13 Member: 14484Members, Constellation
<div class="IPBDescription">And Metamod</div> So.... how can I install Whichbot and RC Bot at the same time... and make them work together? The bottom of my liblist file looks like this...

// Using rcbot support for now

// NOTE: To use meta mod with the bot keep
// the rcbot.dll in gamedll, the bot will
// load metamod automatically.

gamedll "dlls\rcbot.dll"
gamedll_linux "dlls/ns_i386.so"
<b>gamedll addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll</b>

That line in bold, when it's there, only whichbot works. When it's not there only rc bot works. I have no idea how to make them work together. Help please!

And how do I install metamod too? I have no idea on that either.

    Remove:

    gamedll "dlls\rcbot.dll"

    Add "+localinfo mm_gamedll dlls/rcbot.dll" to your HL command line (or command line in shortcut) to something like:

    (Hard Drive letter my HL is installed in):(My half-life folder)\HL.exe -game ns +localinfo mm_gamedll dlls/rcbot.dll

    e.g.

    for me it would be

    D:\half-life\hl.exe -game ns +localinfo mm_gamedll

    It should work that way :-p It should also tell you in the admin mod manual, but unsure abnout the metamod one...

    Sorry I didn't start a new topic but it wouldn't let me...

    I seem to be experiencing problems running NS, whenever the game loads up the error message

    "Hl has now caused an error in FMOD.DLL"
    "Hl will now close"

    I have tried reinstalling + downloading NS, but nothing seems to work. Also I have used different FMOD.DLL files that I've downloaded from friends, does anyone know what I've done wrong??

    Thanks very much for you help,

    Bourneh

    you probably couldn't start a new thread b/c you didn't put a title in

    as for that,, simply look through the other threads around here (some one else just had that prob)

    and as a general rule, please search before your ask questions (especialy if it is omething simple like fmod.dll)

    if you are having problems with the search you can use the one on the bottom of the forums (it isn't as powerfull but it generaly works)

    I updated the <a href='http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=16096&group_id=76903' target='_blank'>WhichBot FAQ</a> with more detailed instructions on exactly how to install both bots together.

    If you installed whichbot-metamod.zip, Metamod will be installed along with WhichBot - in fact, if WhichBot is working, by definition you must have Metamod installed.

    Hope that helps!

    Thank you for your help, I'm understanding it a bit better now but not enough to make it work yet.

    This part here confuses me for one.

    <!--QuoteBegin--cheeseh+--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> (cheeseh)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->Add "+localinfo mm_gamedll dlls/rcbot.dll" to your HL command line (or command line in shortcut) to something like: <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Err HL command line, is that the line in liblist file?

    Clamatius, I read the updated FAQ's but still couldn't figure it out. I didn't see any line like that

    <!--QuoteBegin--clamatius+--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> (clamatius)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->
    As an example of the full command line, it will look something like this:

    hl.exe -game ns -console +localinfo mm_gamedll dlls/rcbot.dll
    If you run NS from the command prompt, just add the +localinfo parameter above to the command you use.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    This part here specifically confuses me, of course this may just be me <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> .

    I'm running Windows XP if that helps, and here's what I currently have written down in my liblist file now.

    gamedll_linux "dlls/ns_i386.so"
    gamedll addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll
    c:\half-life\hl.exe -game ns +localinfo mm_gamedll

    lol, ok right click on the icon you use to launch HL

    right click -> properties -> Target

    add "+localinfo mm_gamedll dlls/rcbot.dll" (with out the quotes) to the end of target

    Whoa, I posted that like a second after you posted that before, I didn't check my post so I didn't realise what happened. But yes, you would have probably answered my question if I hadn't gotten help from a friend, so thank you anyway.
