SturmBot is not working

Well that is what this whole page is about, you will have to do some simple checks first.

Check you installed it correctly: Make sure you installed Sturmbot in the correct folder, if you did there should be a "sturmbot" folder inside the "dod" folder, e.g... 

64 Bit :C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Half-Life\dod\sturmbot

OR

32 Bit :C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Half-Life\dod\sturmbot

Did you use INsane's installer or the original SturmBot installer?

If you used my installer you should be OK to go if it went in the correct folder. Contact me through the forums, (registration required) or the email contact form and I will deal with your issue.

If you used the original SturmBot team installer please review this section, you could have missed some steps!


 I cannot see the SturmBot menu but SturmBot is installed

This can be a couple of things, make sure you installed Sturmbot in the correct folder... 

64 Bit :C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Half-Life\dod\sturmbot

OR

32 Bit :C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Half-Life\dod\sturmbot

Also, if you used the original installer you could have missed the step where you adjust the liblist.gam file, you need to manually edit it.

For both of the above, look at this section and check your files.


 

The SturmBot menu used to work but now it does not display in game

This can be because the bot program was not loaded yet when you entered the map.

Fix: wait until the bot program loads, wait for the SturmBot title to display after the map loads... then press the bind to the menu.

Or: Version 1.7b does have an issue with the menu. Version 1.6 does work. If you use 1.7b consider using my menu, or the steam installer package that has the menu.


 There are no waypoints for this map

This just means there are no waypoints in your "Half-Life\dod\sturmbot\waypoints" folder. Most commonly it means the map you are running has never had a set made for it. Have a quick read here about waypoints. You may even consider making your own? Give it a try here.

If used the original StrumBot installer it only comes with 51 waypoints. Not all for custom maps and a few are faulty like dod_glider. How about installing over 600 with fixes to maps like dod glider? Get them here.

I have a dedicated downloads section for that, if you have some you made, join the site, (registration required) and upload yours or post them in the forums here.

Maybe request some in the forums  here. (registration required for forums).

I have a menu that makes it a little easier, look at that here


 

Application removal Could not open logfile 'c:\windows\st6unst.000' (Error message) Sturmbot loader 1 2 error

This is an error from the installer of SturmBot Loader 1.2. You may not have followed all the instructions here.

Sturmbot loader 1 2 deletefile

 

The effect is on a windows start up get this error.

Fix: Just browse to C\windows\ , find "ST6UNST.exe" and delete it.
