IW2 Bot Warfare

Bot Warfare is a GSC mod for libcod / CoD2rev Server.

It aims to add playable AI to the multiplayer games of CoD2.

You can find the ModDB release post here.

Important to public dedicated servers

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.

  • 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 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.

  1. Make sure that CoD2 server + libcod and game client is installed, updated and working properly.
  2. Locate your CoD2 server install folder.
  3. 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.
  4. 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").
  5. Now start your CoD2 client and connect to your server (connect 127.0.0.1 in the console most likely) and play!
