[Release] Call of Duty: World at War Bots Mod!

It's here, BOTS FOR COD WAW!! If your wondering what i mean by bots, they're computer characters, basically offline computer players. These bots are especially fun for hacking, and not getting kicked by punkbuster! Here are instructions; make sure you follow them carefully. If it becomes big enough of a problem, i will post an outside download link if waiting of approval of the attachment takes too long.

Notes: *These bots are for MULTIPLAYER ONLY. They will not work with co-op mode!
*Bots are tested and working with version 1.3 and 1.4 of the game; PLEASE DO NOT REPORT ANY PROBLEMS YOU GET WITH EARLIER VERSIONS!
*Having a large ammount of bots in your match will result in ALOT of lag. It is recommended that you do not have more than 18 bots per match.
*Bots are waypointed (they work) with all maps and game modes EXCEPT CAPTURE THE FLAG. Bots are waypointed for all maps, including the Makin Day map and the 3 multiplayer maps that came with the 1.4 patch.

HOW TO INSTALL/USE: 1. Once you have downloaded the .zip file, extract it to the desktop temporarily.

2. Now that you have it extracted, you should have a folder called PeZBOTWAW on your desktop.

3. Right Click on the folder, and click "Copy" or "Cut".

4. Navigate to this directory based on your operating system: (XP) C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW
(Vista/Windows 7) C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Activision\CODWaW (MAKE SURE TO TURN ON "Show hidden files and folders") If you do not know how, leave a comment.

5. In there should be another folder called "Mods", if there isn't one - create one.

6. Open the "Mods" folder, then Right Click, and "Paste" the PeZBOTWAW folder we copied earlier from the desktop.

7. You *have to* load the mod through the command line. (Keep reading, lol)

8. With your desktop shortcut to World at War Multiplayer (Create one if you don't have one) you need to Right Click on it, then click on Properties.

9. You should see: "Target: C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War\CoDWaWmp.exe"

10. Add this onto the end of the target line: +set fs_game "mods/PeZBOTWAW"

11. Your target line should now look something like this: "C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War\CoDWaWmp.exe" +set fs_game "mods/PeZBOTWAW"

12. Now all you need to do, is click "Ok", then Double-Click on the shortcut and away you go.

13. When in game, to add the bots all you need to do is open up the console with the ~ key, and type /svr_pezbots # (replace # with the amount of bots you wish to have)

14. Invite friends to your bot match by following the instructions below.

15. More DVARS are below - you can adjust the difficulty of the bots, etc. (You can add these onto the end of your command line)

help?

Vista or XP?

Nice. I could not get it to work with the new 1.5 patch maps, but i could at older maps.

Yeah, it only works with version 1.4 We are currently working on a new version of the mod, which will be waypointed with the 1.5 maps, aswell as come with some new features.

Also it crashed my game (after a successful game) when the next map try to load.

Very very nice!

Few questions, Mod also counts to online ranking? Because I've seen a mod like this before, and I used it, and it erased me from presteige 3 level 51, And I don't want to lose my preteige 6, level 31

You do level up, but only on the mod. The mod has it's own stats, separate from the actual multiplayer.
