To install:
Using installation program:
Run file and install to the half-life directory
Using WinZip file:
extract WinZip file to frontline directory
To Play:
Open frontline->multiplayer->Lan Games->Create Game
choose a map and click ok
bots will automatically be added
to add additional bots type "addbot" in console
to modify the number of bots automatically added, edit the bot.cfg
file in your half-life directory (type in additional 'addbot' entries)
Maps:
HOT_BOT uses NO WAYPOINTS and as a result works with ALL maps. Maps relying heavily
on ladders (like flf_snow) still are not functional, but with doors implemented, overall play is greatly improved on most maps. Also, maps such as flf_fox do not work because of certain mapping textures. Best maps: flf_village, flf_kezman
