Killerhurtz.bot crashes the game :(
« on: January 15, 2009, 08:35:36 PM »
I was wondering if there was another .bot file of killerhurts, I downloaded it from one of the AU Battlebots files from the download section, and out of all of them, this seems to be the only one that makes the game crash, I can't load it to edit the controls, I don't know about playing against it since I still have the default dsl2 AI, the other bots in the file (TORO, Diesector, ect.) They all work just fine. So what I am wondering, is there another .bot file for killerhurtz, or something that will fix the .bot file so that I can use him?

Oh, BTW, sorry if this is the wrong section.



- Thanks

You say you "downloaded it from one of the AU Battlebots" BUT, then you say "playing against it since I still have the default dsl2 AI".........DSL and UA Battlepack are two different packs.....DO NOT MIX THEM unless you know exactly what you are doing, and apparently you don't.

Maybe I worded it wrong or something, I'm not sure, but I was trying to play "as" killerhurtz. As I mentioned the others in the pack work fine, I wasn't trying to mix them or anything, I know that will screw it up. I tend to figure things out on my own, and so far alls well, its just that when I try and load up killerhurtz to play "as" the bot, it crashes the game, I have TORO and Diesector as well as some of the other bots that are in the pack, they run just fine, it seems to be just killerhurtz.

So basically, I want to play as killerhurtz, but as mentioned, it crashes the game, which is why I was wondering if there was another one, or if this one is missing something

Are you trying to import an AI into a User Team so you can control it? Not sure if that's what you're asking. If the bot works as an AI, it will also work as a User bot.
 
The surefire way to find out why a bot crashes the game, is to get Notepad++ and open the bot file. Then, go through the components (and their addresses) to make sure there are no anomalies such as:
1. that all of the components in the bot are also installed in your game.
2. then make sure the addresses to those components are right (esp. 'Styles' components).
 
This is easier than you may think, so give it a try.

If you need further help with this you can ask ACAMS, for according to Goose he AAMs most of his bots anyway:

I know, I have done it with some of the previous bots.

sorry for the double post. But I downloaded notepad++, opened the file and it had a bunch of weird letters, but not to worry though, as I re-extracted the .bot file, and it works fine.


Thanks
