New bot for CoD4 - PeZBOT

[jamjam11]

Hi all,
Just wanted to let you know about a new multiplayer bot that has just been released for Call of Duty 4 - called PeZBOT.

The author (details are in the readme.txt file) states this is a pre alpha release and a lot is still to be done with the mod. He plans waypoint functionality for the future and much more.

Take a look here for more info: [RELEASE] PeZBOT 002p

also here: Welcome to IWNation

You can download the bot mod using this link:

This is the best CoD4 bot mod yet and looks promising for the future.

Update:

Pezz (the mod author/creator) has announced version 4 should be released in the next couple of days. Version 4 will include waypoints for all stock maps (so bots move around better) and a number of bug fixes etc. So watch this space!

I will upload to FileFront and post a link here once it is available.

Everyone,
Pezzalucifer has released a quick fix version 4.2 for PeZBOT. He states as follows:

"The waypoint following no longer sux, they will get to where they want to go.
Just so i dont get 1000 emails about them doing stupid stuff, if they get stuck can you plz turn on debugdraw and take a screenshot? because it wont be the code thats screwed, it will be a dodgy waypoint or link. Thanks."

Hi everyone,
Pezzalucifer (mod author) has announced he hopes to release version 5 (005p) in the next week or two.

I've asked him to post a list of what will be included in version 5. I will update again when this is available.

Update from Pezzalucifer (author) on what will be in version 5:

".Heaps of waypoint fixes so that when bots spawn they can get onto a waypoint without getting stuck on top of sky scrapers etc.. (done)

.Bots no longer have eyes in the back of their heads (done)

.Removed the Modwarfare code so now it's like normal cod4, ranks and custom classes. (done)

.Bots can play S&D and Sabotage. (done)

.Fixed the silly bot walking backwards bug. (done)

.Bots target correctly when players crouch/prone. (almost done)

.Bots no longer camp HQs. (todo)

.Bots move at the correct speeds when running and sprinting. (todo)


Umm probably other things but i cant remember what..

The main one left is the targeting. However, I might delay release a little bit to add some code that makes them go to where the player who killed them was last, this seems like a commonly used tactic in multiplayer anyway, and will stop ppl camping and shooting the crap out of bots as they run towards HQs and Dom flags... which i do all the time, lol.

At the moment they are a bit like gold fish, 1 second memory, if they can remember a little more they might play a little smarter. So I think adding it will be worth the wait as 005p is a little light on "features". It's currently just a much less buggy 004p2 ."
