Combine Mods, i.e. Darkplaces Mod and Reaperbots

[yezariael]

Hi there, first of all thx to everyone working on this page, it is an awesome piece of Q1 information etc.

I recently managed to build the Darkplaces Engine for my OSX so now I am able to have fun again with Quake . I love the dpmod too, what I would like to manage now is to play for example the Reaperbots inside the Darkplaces engine (so far so good, no problem) whilst I would love to see the Reaperbots bleed, get squished when already dead and so on... You see, all of the dpmod stuff like projectiles, corpse-gibbing, decals etc. etc.

Is this possible at all and if, can anyone tell me how to do that or redirect me to an existing tutorial maybe? I would be so mo-fo happy... :d

Thanx a lot!
greetz, yezariael

Here are the Frikbots (latest version)

Check the readme for information on how to plug them into a mod.
Here are all of the waypoints for the ID maps... (created by me)

You need waypoints for the bot to function well in navigating a level. They are not much of a challenge without waypoints. I can create waypoints for any level, just ask me and I'll make them ASAP.

DPmod, at least used to, have its own bots. they werent very good but they were there - dont know if he disabled them or not.

but yeah, FBX would implement alright Id imagine due to their client emulation - they wouldnt use the alt fires or hook, but hey, youd still get to face off against them with DPmod's evile lightning gun and sng...

and DPmod is open source so itd be easy to do.
