# IW2 Bot Warfare
|
||||
Bot Warfare is a GSC mod for [libcod](https://github.com/ibuddieat/zk_libcod/) / [CoD2rev Server](https://github.com/voron00/CoD2rev_Server).
|
||||
|
||||
Bot Warfare for CoD2.
|
||||
It aims to add playable AI to the multiplayer games of CoD2.

You can find the ModDB release post [here](https://www.moddb.com/mods/bot-warfare/downloads/iw2-bot-warfare-latest).
|
||||
|
||||
## <span style="color:red">Important to public dedicated servers</span>
|
||||
The `bots_main_firstIsHost` CVAR is enabled by default!
|
||||
|
||||
This is so inexperienced users of the mod can access with menu without any configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure to disable this CVAR by adding `set bots_main_firstIsHost 0` in your server config!

## Features
|
||||
- A Waypoint Editor for creating and modifying bot's waypoints of traversing the map. Have a look at [Using the Waypoint editor](/bw-assets/wpedit.md).
|
||||
|
||||
- A clean and nice menu, you can edit every bot CVAR within in-game.
|
||||
|
||||
- Everything can be customized, ideal for both personal use and dedicated servers. Have a look at [Documentation](#Documentation) to see whats possible!
|
||||
|
||||
- This mod does not edit ANY stock .gsc files, meaning EVERY other mod is compatible with this mod. Mod doesn't add anything unnecessary, what you see is what you get.
|
||||
|
||||
- Adds AI clients to multiplayer games to simulate playing real players. (essentially Combat Training for CoD2)
|
||||
- Bots move around the maps with native engine input. (all normal maps)
|
||||
- Can load MeatBot waypoints as well.
|
||||
- Bots press all the buttons with native engine input. (ads, jump, etc)
|
||||
- Bots play all gamemodes/objectives, they capture flags, plant, defuse bombs, etc. (all normal modes)
|
||||
- Bots can camp randomly.
|
||||
- Bots can follow others on own will.
|
||||
- Bots have smooth and realistic aim.
|
||||
- Bots respond smartly to their surroundings, they will go to you if you shoot, compass, etc.
|
||||
- Bots use all weapons.
|
||||
- Bots difficulty level can be customized and are accurate. (hard is hard, easy is easy, etc.)
|
||||
- Bots each all have different classes, traits, and difficulty and remember it all.
|
||||
- Bots switch from between primaries and secondaries.
|
||||
- Bots can throw grenades, they even use grenades in preset map locations.
|
||||
- Bots can melee people.
|
||||
- Bots can run!
|
||||
- Bots can climb ladders!
|
||||
- Bots jump shot and drop shot.
|
||||
- Bots detect smoke grenades, and grenade slows.
|
||||
- Bots will remember their class, skill and traits, even on multiround based gametypes.
|
||||
- ... And pretty much everything you expect a Combat Training bot to have
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
You can easily setup a local LAN dedicated server for you to join and play on.
|
||||
|
||||
0. Make sure that CoD2 server + libcod and game client is installed, updated and working properly.
|
||||
- Download the [latest release](https://github.com/ineedbots/iw2_bot_warfare/releases) of Bot Warfare.
|
||||
1. Locate your CoD2 server install folder.
|
||||
2. Move the files/folders found in `Add to root of CoD2 server` from the Bot Warfare release archive you downloaded to the root of your CoD2 server folder.
|
||||
- The folder/file structure should follow as `.CoD2 server folder/mods/mp_bots/z_svr_bots.iwd`.
|
||||
3. The mod is now installed. Now before you start your server, you will need to set the `fs_game` CVAR to `mods/mp_bots` as a commandline argument (`+set fs_game "mods/mp_bots"`).
|
||||
4. Now start your CoD2 client and connect to your server (`connect 127.0.0.1` in the console most likely) and play!
