Singleplayer and Coop / Re: performance improvement
« on: 27-03-2011, 13:03:39 »
96 bots works without big lags with this method while using only BF2 starts lagging with 48 bots for me. Thanks!
But I have some questions:
- How do I balance the bots correctly? When using BF2 to start a server I set AIDefault.ai to the max. number of bots (96), bot ratio to 100 and bot count to 48 and both teams have 48 bots. But somehow the server works differently.
- How can I set different map sizes. Event with MaxPlayers set to 64, the serevr uses the 32 player size. Is this even possible?

Best regards, Phil.

Bug Reporting / Ticket ratio doesn't work (on some maps)
« on: 06-02-2011, 13:02:20 »
On some maps (afaik official and unofficial ones), the ticket ratio option doesn't work. No matter if it's 100 or 500, the map has the same number of tickets.
How can I solve this?

Regards, Phil.

If I'm allowed to, I will upload it at my site.

This looks promising. Can't wait for the download.

I think the bot count  and bot ratio slider as well as the bot calculations are hardcoded, so you can't fix this until EA releases BF2 source code. You can get mor than 32 bots with my app. Open up the "Bf2CoopRegulator.exe.config" with notepad and look for MaxBotCount (not BotCount), should be the last entry:
Code: [Select]
<setting name="MaxBotCount" serializeAs="String">
    <value>32</value>
</setting>
Set it to whatever you like and my app will use this value as the limit. I got up to 96 bots with this, but on slow machines more than 32 bots may cause lags and more than 64 players (bots + humans) will cause weird nametag bugs and maybe other things I don't know about. It is not possible to balance more than 96 bots since bot count max is 48.

This almost drove me crazy, so I made a little program that helps me (files attached). Put the two files from the ZIP archive in the BF2 install directory and launch "Bf2CoopRegulator.exe". Select the mod (fh2) and the maximum number of bots (this is the number of all bots, both teams together), click "Start". In the BF2 server options, select bot ratio 100 and set bot count to the number of bots on team 1. Team 2 will get the remaining number of bots, so that the maximum number is reached.
In your case: Set maximum bots (in my app) to 18, bot ratio 100 (always), bot count 9.
Warning: This program changes AIDefault.ai file (it will not make a backup, this is up to you). It is not recommended to use high numbers of bots on slower machines. You may need to install .NET Framework 2 f it isn't already installed.

Hope it helps, Phil.

General Discussion / Re: Your favorite weapon in 2.3 ?

My favorites are:
Lee Enfield, K98, M1 Garand ('cause you can use them for sniping)
I usually don't use pistols and full auto rifles, so I don't have any preferences here.
Deployable: I use them rarely, but my preferred one is the Vickers.
Sniper: Every bolt action rifle is ok, but my favorite is the Springfield M1903A4.
If there's no sniper rifle available: Geballte Ladung / Satchel Charge sniping FTW!

As you can probably see, I'm a huge fan of sniping :).

Phil.
