friendly this has been brought up multiple times now, so ill say it one more time for the record; Yelo is needed as it has the option to enable ai in mp. it edits the xbe during runtime to allow it to happen. end of story.

and i didnt have the checksum thing on and it worked fine

I think I know a good deal about how to spawn char in vehicles. The driver will not drive but if it is a vehicle where the driver is the gunner(ghost, etc.) then then driver will only turn and shoot at you but i've also learned how to spawn char in the gunner seat of a warthog or the passenger seat. if this is not new to anyone then i'll forget about it. But if u would like to know, it crossed my mind to write a tutorial.

Yeah I know how to spawn it in a car, But whats really bugging me is the freaking zones, im not going to set up specific paths, im just going to make one huge zone, with AI in it so they can roam the map and kill things.

DiscoBob posted a mapped out bit for scnr plugin. Take a look

Also, using that plugin, i can spawn ai in the vehicles perfectly (there not damaged when they spawn), and if you set it so the seat setting as blank then have more than one char spwan in that squad, they automatically put themselves in seats, i had two spawn and they sat in the driver and passenger seats.
Also the banshee dosn't seem to need paths, i had some spawn in banshee's and they flew around shooting me, although they were quite dumb (if they couldn't see me they'd fly straight ahed eventually into walls. Also one got lost in the rocks on coag.

ok good news,the reason the AI wont move is because of 2 reason, First the patch you guys have doesnt have scnr 576 (zones) enabled, Second, even if you did have the reflexive enabled you need to refrence the bsp of the zones to coag which is something I didnt do, which made my map freeze but thats ok its in the process of being fixed

ok u need to explain how to put in zones because i got a little war on zanzibar's beach going on and fully working ai would make it so much better.

-masterpie- · Post by **-masterpie-** » Wed Aug 30, 2006 11:22 am

thats great! i dont realy think theres any need for them to have specific paths, just one big zone is cool, as long as they dont walk into walls

Trulife you've realy worked hard on this, i think its great, and to tried and get the community to join in aswell, i havn't been posting, im afraid i wouldn't be any help, but followed the tutorial VSG made, then messed around with it a bit, great fun. Good job

Why don't you explain more, so we can try to help.

Im curious to see how the ai will actualy act. How they drive vehicles, run around the map, pick up weapons. Actually Trulife, do you happen to know if they will actually be contiuesly moving around the map like a human player once the zones are set up? Instead of standing in one place moving a few steps looking around, moving a few more steps.

Also, Is it possible to actually "program" the ai to be smarter or more advanced eventually? it would be cool but complicated.

Thanks

Well you should go get it in the usual places. If you don't know what i mean use the search tool.
