Hey guys,

I got a quick question. I've been having a problem since .80 regarding unequal distribution of bots between teams. I've been using BF2 SP Bot Changer v2.1 from battlefield2singleplayer to max out my bots from 48 to 64... I do this because I want a dynamic flow of action throughout the battlefield, and I really don't want to change this. I've been looking at other posts similar to my problem, but I haven't really found on perfectly worded to my problem or with a clear solution. I've set my bot ratio to 50%, but I always get 48 bots on team 1 (ex. U.S.), while team 2 (ex. Taliban) will always get pwned by only having 16 bots on it. I've heard that maybe some .con files might be related to the problem, but I've decided to come to the source. Any advice? I'd like to be able to play as the Chinese and Militants without knowing that I'm only asking to get mauled by the other team.

Thanks, and keep up the good work!

not to be an *** but there is prolably four other threads concerning and answering this

just take a look

I know, I already read them... as I wrote, there's nothing with a solid solution to my problem in those threads.

well part of you problem is thatprsp is optimized for 48 total players (including AI)

ive never heard of the program you are using, so i cant help much with that.

i would say try to bi pass that program your using while playing PRSP

Ok, folks, here's what I've discovered by futzing around with the bot changer program mentioned by jcavi 92. You can use this handy utility to set the number of bots in SP to 64 (or any number, for that matter). Just be sure to "rem out" those four lines in the "aidefault" file in the "ai" folder, as advised by AncientMan elsewhere in this sp forum. Then when you get to your setup screen in SP, set your bot ratio to 68, no more, no less. This will result in 32 bots being assigned to both sides. If your machine can handle 64 bots, play to your heart's content. But be forewarned, while I experimented using 7 Gates, which has only infantry and vehicles, another map with air assests, like, say, Kashan Desert, may cause enough lag to make it unsatisfactory playing with that many bots. But try it out and see. My rig is by no means very up-to-date, but it runs bf2 and PR just fine with 48 bots.

I had the same issue and had to edit the ServerSettings.con located in My Documents/Battlefield 2/Profiles/Default.
