How to play with bots on COOP lan?

[Freddan962]

Hello,

I am currently trying to play with a friend on our local network. However, when I create a game no bots spawn. What could be the cause or how could I do this? Thanks!

are you creating this LAN in "CO-OPERATIVE" or "DEPLOYMENT"?

you need to click on CO-OPERATIVE, otherwise there won't be any bots...

also, there is a slider to choose the number of bots you want to play with
you can choose from 0 to 48

you can't go wrong... good luck

I think it's possible using the BF2 Server Launcher that comes with BF2 vanilla... not sure

Yes, you need to put in the correct files and change some settings

Hi, thanks. Do you have an specifics on this ? With other mods I've copied the mod to a dedicated server on the same machine (a quad core) and get much better performance because the bots and the graphics are not competing for a single CPU core (the dedi server which runs all the AI is then on another core than the client). But PR seems to be set up in a way that prevents this ... what do I have to do ?
