So I used to make bots with Bot Boom and never had any issues with it. But later I ventured into the coding of C in which the bots use. I still use the .bot files in my scripts, and I found a strange problem that I have no idea why it happens.

This is the Bot Boom file made.
// generated by Bot Boom 1.0
{
name MyBot
funname ^3My^4Bot
model anarki/blue
aifile bots/anarki_c.c
}

My file:
// New Bots :D
{
name AimBot
model sarge/roderick
aifile newbots/aimbot_c.c
}

And I do have all of the AI coding written.

The main issue is, the bot can be found on the bot selector in single player. However, it can't be added because somehow the skills can't be found. The exact error message is: "couldn't load newbots/aimbot_c.c" However, the files aimbot_c.c, aimbot_w.c, aimbot_i.c, and aimbot_t.c are in a pk3 file called sgbots-v1.pk3. And the .bot files for MyBot (by Bot Boom) and AimBot are both in the scripts folder located within the Baseq3 folder. As you can see, the Bot Boom generator can somehow load .c files from Pak0.pk3, but my .bot file can't load a .c file from another pk3 in the same directory as pak0.pk3.

Does anyone have a clue for this issue?

No idea, just to say something: Did you put the bot files (the aimbot_c.c and the others) in botfiles/newbots, inside the pk3 file?

I think q3 only read botfiles from the botfiles/bots/
So the botfiles/newbots/ structure doesn't work...

What Takkie said ... botfiles can only be read from the botfiles/bots folder structure within a .pk3 which you can make yourself ... you can do all of this using a notepad to alter the .c files and you can make a .pk3 file using a Winzip program to make a pk3 file by naming it "botname.pk3". The easiest way to make your own bot, is by extracting the botfiles from one of the bots in the pak4.pk3 and then changing the number within the botfiles (sarge_c sarge_i sarge_t sarge_w) to your own preference. Create a yourbotsname.bot using a notepad as well and put it within a scripts folder. Drag the botfiles and the .bot in their folder structure into the Winzip program which you have named yourbotsname.pk3, then put the .pk3 within your baseq3 folder. Using a bot program is pointless when you can do it all manually this way.

Have you checked that sv_pure is 0?

It might help working with loose files instead of a pk3.

I don't know but since a bot is defined like this:
Code:
{
name      Orbb
model      orbb
aifile   bots/orbb_c.c
}

It makes sense that other folder than "bots" could be used, only if it's inside "botfiles".

This was resolved. I made it a but easier by using pk3 Editor called Slade3. (I know it's for Doom, but Quake has the same Compression Method and it can make quake 3 pk3's a well). Anyway, I just moved the aimbot_c etc to pak0 and in the aimbot.bot I just used botfiles/bots . Thank's for the help guys.

Good, though inserting files in pak0 isn't very handy, I would keep trying to use loose files.

You can also make a pk3 with Winzip or Winrar but you have to choose "Zip" and "No compression".

Yeah, modifying pak0.pk3 is a very bad idea. In fact, now that you've added files to it, I'm not sure removing those files again will fix it because it might still be different than the original on a byte level. If your pak files are different than those on a pure server, you can't connect to it and play on it.

Best thing to do now is manually copy pak0.pk3 back from the CD to your hard disk.

You could try using the bot maker tool in the Quake Toolkit. It generates all the required files for you.
