A single-player add-on "bot" modification for a WW2 game Day of Defeat.
SturmBot is about as old as Day of Defeat, Beta versions were in 2001 and full retail around 2003-2005.
The game has a manual that I (INsane - webmaster) have added to that old manual for those that need it.
This site captures all it can for those old files and provides downloads so you can play off-line.
There are waypoint guides (with videos) Server guides... just explore the main menu up there.
Take a look at this video by YouTuber Zerscape for part 1 of all the official maps...

SturmBot is a easy to install add-on program that adds "bots" to the WW2 based multi-player game Day of Defeat, (also known as "dod", wiki here) making it a single-player game.
If you have Day of Defeat for Steam or the older versions please visit the downloads section for the latest SturmBot packages for dod Steam version or older dod versions.
Most recent package is Sturmbot 1.9 for Steam dod version 2.
Here is a page that shows what version of SturmBot works with each dod version.
Sturmbot has had a few sites over the years and all the places are mostly gone, reasons are below. I hope this site corrects that.
About the creator of SturmBot - Johan Linde:
Johan was the developer of Sturmbot, Johan Linde, AKA... Jowo.
Johan perished while vacationing in Thailand when the 2004 Tsunami hit, he was listed as missing. There are some bits of information on the web that some family members also died. (See Read More below)
However, enough was left to us by Johan for the program to function with the latest steam dod Version 1.3.
While only young, Johan's work was an incredible effort for a person of his age.
This site is dedicated to Johan's work so that does not disappear.
It may look like nothing is happening but I can assure you new items are being added to the site.
Sturmbot - Not a lot. But there is news on Marine Bot for Day of Defeat 1.3
That means dod version 1.3 will have 3 bots to choose from.
Marine Bot for Day of Defeat 1.3
It's early days on that bot and the place to start would be to keep an eye on the main site and the YouTube channel for Marine Bot.
Start here...
New articles - There are a lot.
Check out the Day of Defeat Customisation Guides section.
This section is filling with general guides for day of defeat.
The main focus is on the GUI and HUD customisations. Day of Defeat does have some significant issues in the official files.
Since Valve started the HL 25th anniversary updates good and bad things happened to the files. I was in the middle of making a GUI and HUD when HL1 updated and broke the sniper scope and other items.
There are guides on the HUD and GUI in that section but they need a tidy up.
The GUI and HUD files are nearly ready to release and fix a lot of items, it's been delayed because of Valve as they may update and change the files.
Look at that section as there are articles now completed, the Making GUI backgrounds guide is done. The rest of the articles... need a tidy up.
The other section (that was a lot of work) is Day of Defeat Commands (CVARs) section.
The Day of Defeat common player commands (CVARS) was a huge undertaking, listing all dod and HL1 cvars (commands) after the HL25 engine updates.
That feed into two other articles, what commands to use in ,cfg files and the Goldsource netgraph settings.
A lot is happening under the surface. Look out for more in 2024.
