Doom 3 BFG - Quake 3 Arena Bot Code

[icecoldduke]

I ported the Quake 3 Arena bot code to RBDOOM-3-BFG. This is a first pass of that work. Included in this branch are 90% of the Doom 3 weapons ported to C++ from DoomScript, and half of the monster AI ported to C++ from DoomScript.

Not seen in this video but I also just added a new announcer set, and announcer feedback events for lead lost, lead gained, lead tied.

i dont know if this was done before on vanilla doom 3 but damn thats really cool and its a good way to preserve the multplayer of doom 3 since nobody plays it anymore

I updated the video in the OP, that shows up a more flushed out multiplayer experience, bot chat, better announcer voice, new announcer events, etc and with 8 bot FFA, it was a really fun match.

Thanks, you should check it out, its actually surprisingly really fun with all the new multiplayer changes I just put in, see the video in the OP.

damn this is becoming better and better shame that it seens like i am the only one that cares for this

one recomendation you could also put some of the doom quotes as bot text like "rip and tear your guts" "cooking with gas" "thats a weapon not a teleporter" etc i think it would be really cool though i like what they are saying here too

I just grabbed some quotes from Quake 3 Arena. If you got a second, would you be able to provide some feedback quotes for the bots?

i think the quotes are good what i said above was just a sugestion so dont take it too seriusly

can i ask: how much time did you spend to create the mod? or was it more of a porting job from quake3?

Last year I refactored the Quake 3 bot AI. In Quake 3 they had 4 "levels" of AI logic for the bots; level 0 and 1 were in Botlib, 2 and 3 were in the qagamex86.dll. I removed level 0(AAS) and replaced it with recast navmesh and moved level 1 into qagamex86.dll. This process took awhile.

 

For this work, I essentially moved that logic to Doom 3 and switched recast navmesh back to AAS. The end result is something that's a lot easier to follow then the original Quake 3 code. 

 

This is the bot code that's now in my RB Doom 3 BFG fork.

This is the bot code from my Quake 3 bot code refactor that I mentioned earlier that is all in the game dll and uses recast navmesh:
