frikbot - cant save waypoints

Post by dr_mabuse »

i want to make some Waypoints on my maps, so they can be played with Bots..
But when i try to save the waypoints the game is crashing me to the console displaying this:

CALL2 8937(strcat)()
: SaveWays
: bot_menu_display
: BotPostFrame
: PlayerPostThink
<NO FUNCTION>
Bad builtin call number
Host_Error: Program error

wth does that mean? it happens on EVERY Quake client and its annoying...

Code: Select all

CALL2 8937(strcat)()
: SaveWays
: bot_menu_display
: BotPostFrame
: PlayerPostThink
<NO FUNCTION>
Bad builtin call number
Host_Error: Program error
Looks like you're using an engine that doesn't support FRIK_FILE. Have you tried Darkplaces or FTEQW ?
I know FrikaC made a cgi-bin version of the quakec interpreter once and wrote part of his website in QuakeC :) (LordHavoc)

Darkplaces is crashing when i try to run Kurok, but i will try FTEQW :)
Hope it works :D

EDIT: Darkplaces didnt load Kurok, FTEQW cant save waypoints...
This is pissing me off now...

Don't use save. Use -condebug and use the dump waypoints option then clip the results out of qconsole.log, that is the non-FRIK_FILE method.

Ahahaha thanks :D
It works :) :D

didn't see that "dump" Entry in the menu before (Blame it on the small Kurok Window)

EDIT: Your Bots rule, they are much better than in some commercial games (Medal of Honor Heroes)

Oh, one question:

How can i use the Bots in singleplayer like in Quake 1 Arena?
I mean if you select Singleplayer you start the game and 6 bots are connecting and you play deathmatch against bots?

Quick answer is you can't really, when you start a single player game there's no support for the client slots FrikBot needs.

However, one mod I made, if it detected it was in Single Player (IE selected from the menu, it would localcmd a bunch of stuff and basically restart the game as a multiplayer game) this actually worked pretty seamlessly.
