Greetings. I had a question. Is it possible to create bots that act like true players (go after objectives in game modes outside of slayer, contribute to the scoreboard, etc...) for my mod, I'm trying to get as close to the multiplayer experience as possible. If not, then I do have some game types built around the AI limitations (CTF AI, for example. It kind of has elements of "VIP" in it. The goal is score three "points". The team with the human player scores by capturing flags. The opposing team scores by killing the human player. The latter score is tracked via the player lives system, since bots are unaffected by it).

Its possible but it would be incredibly difficult and the only person I've seen even try was Kirby

Well, i guess i have my work cut out for me. I guess i can contact Kirby about his work. My primary insparation for making true bots is the PeZBOTs mod for Call of Duty 4 and W@W, and the RSE Bot mod for MW2 (100% script driven, as there is no AI system in any of these game's multiplayer engines) At least AI function in Custom Edition multiplayer.

Well, the PeZBOTs guys pretty much called it quits and released the source code. Macporterjoe, the RSE maker (RSE is also based off of PeZBOT source code), is pretty dedicated to Call of Duty. I guess i can ask him about it. I do want to ask Kirby if he can share his work.

To my knowledge, he retired.
He used to reply to PM's, but seeing as he doesn't come round here anymore...
He might reply to a youtube message though, you could try that. Or maybe even add him on xfire?

@Spartan314

I'll try Youtube. I don't use xfire.

@MEGASEAN2812

I wonder if Kirby's bots are specific to a map, or if they can be used in any map.

@P3

I talked to Macporterjoe, and he said Halo 1 is too old, but, he may do Halo 3 if it came to PC.
