Title: BBEANS AI Pack Now Available
Post by: Clickbeetle on October 04, 2009, 06:42:23 PM: (https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/64375bbai.jpg)

CLICK HERE TO GET THE BBEANS AI PACK. (http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/robotarena.htm)

I am asymptotically close to 100% sure that everything is included and working here, but please do report any bugs you happen to find.

Some features of the BBEANS AI Pack:

-150 bots of every difficulty level, from Spinner from the west to Absolute Chaos and everything in between, so you can be challenged whether you're a noob or a veteran.

-25 never before seen bots that didn't make it into BBEANS because they were changed, updated, withdrawn, too late, or illegal.

-New and improved AI for all BBEANS1 bots and some BBEANS3 bots.

-All the arenas used for BBEANS tournaments, including the RA2T2 arena, the Small Arena, and both versions of the BBEANS Tournament Arena.

-Six new events in the Team HQ: BBEANS1, 3, and 5, both 1-on-1 and rumble versions.

-Five new music tracks for the main menu, team HQ, and botlab.

-Some of the DSL sound effects I used while recording stock matches.

-Some new menu graphics.

-The Stacked Supervolt and Nifty Power/Control tournament prizes. But keep in mind that having them in your bot lab is not the same as winning them. You still have to win these prizes in order for them to be tournament-legal. (The only reason I included them is because there are some BBEANS5 bots that use the Stacked Supervolt.)

-Some bonus easter eggs for whoever can find them.

Have fun!

And now I will finally get back to work on DSL3. Expect a revival of the DSL3 preview thread sometime soon.

Do what I do... don't make multiple copies of the whole game, just switch out AI folders when you want to play different opponents.

Of course, if you do that with the BBEANS AI you should know that it comes with a selectbot_computer.gib file that gets rid of the 6-bot AI team modification. So make sure to make a backup.

Post by: JoeBlo on October 04, 2009, 09:58:22 PM: there not all just AI packs :P I have loads of copies I modify and play around with things :-D for stock I only have Stock, Starcore V4 beta, Restocked and now the BBEANS AI

Post by: Trovaner on October 04, 2009, 10:30:16 PM: This pack is full of cool stuff...

Besides already finding many hilarious easter eggs, I also found two issues: smartzoneround.txt and smartzonetall.txt are missing their associated GMF files.

Oops.

Well, at least this is a case of... um... whatever the opposite of "omission" is, instead of omission. smartzoneround and smartzonetall are not used in this pack. I must have accidentally included those txt files when I was copying Mad's smart zones. You can go ahead and delete those files.

Post by: Pwnator on October 05, 2009, 04:35:13 AM: Swweeeet. Now I can inspect the setups of Bounty Hunter, Seism 13, R4 and 45-70 Magnum. >=)

Oh yeah, what's the difference between BountyHunter.py and a normal Popup.py with the drive wired to the srimech?

Post by: JoeBlo on October 05, 2009, 04:48:19 AM: some of the Easter eggs are cool, but... (in white text) spoiler warning if you want to find it yourself

is there a trick to getting the Epic Showdown arena to show up in exhibition ? I cant seem to get it ?

:)
Title: BBEANS AI Pack Now Available
Post by: RedSawn on October 05, 2009, 08:03:03 AM: Hell yes. Gonna love seeing the original Double Damage.. and then tear it to shreds.

EDIT: Think of this post as a longing for the future. I installed this pack thinking it was a combination of both DSL and stock for some reason. And it took about 8 minutes in the game to figure out that it's just stock. Glad I used a backup version of DSL.

Post by: Trovaner on October 05, 2009, 01:28:39 PM: @JoeBlo: A bigger spoiler in response to his spoiler: (also in white text)

The arena automatically changes to the Epic Showdown Arena if a bot beats SFTW and proceeds to fight it again afterward. Take a look at SpinnerOmni.py if you want to see what is happening behind the scenes...
Title: BBEANS AI Pack Now Available
Post by: Reier on October 05, 2009, 01:53:20 PM: So is that just in tournaments? Or Exhibition? Cause I can't get it to come up.

Spoiler related post

Maybe. But it seems illogical. How can you face SFTW twice back-to-back in a tourney? And can the AI distinguish a tourney fight and an exhibition?
Title: BBEANS AI Pack Now Available
Post by: Reier on October 05, 2009, 02:28:48 PM: Wait I found out how to do it.

Fight SFTW 20 times. IT'S WORTH IT!! Or be a hack and change the file to say 19.

Very, very doubtful that is possible.

Make a backup of the original AI folder, then delete the AI folder and replace it the BBEANS AI folder. If you want to go back to original, backup the current AI folder and move the backup of the original in.

Nicsan, you seem like a nice guy and all, but you might want to let people with a little more experience to help. Not trying to put you down here, but just in case.

some of the Easter eggs are cool, but... (in white text) spoiler warning if you want to find it yourself

Open bbhaz.py in the Arenas folder. (I disguised all the file names for the easter eggs to keep people from finding out about it. Apparently that didn't work with all these modders eager to inspect the AI py's.) Find the line in bbhaz.py that says "in_list = False" and change it to True, or just delete it. You'll now have the Epic Showdown arena.

Out of curiosity, has anybody found the big easter egg WITHOUT snooping around in files they're not supposed to pay attention to?
