Zbot for Counter-Strike
Sunday, April 20th, 2008If you want to play against bots in Counter-Strike 1.6, you should get Zbot! Zbot is good because you don’t have to go online to look for waypoints to download. It will analyze the maps when you play and create the waypoint file if there isn’t any!
How to install Zbot

C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\*ACCOUNTNAME*\Counter-Strike
3. Log in to Steam and launch Counter-Strike.
4. Click New Game and start playing against bots!
Zbot commands
bot_add = adds a bot
bot_add_t = adds a bot to the terrorist team
bot_add_ct = adds a bot to the counter-terrorist team
bot_kill = kills bots so a new round will start
bot_kick = kicks bots
Those are the basic commands. Read zbot_command.txt for the other commands.
Shortcut
If you want to use Metamod with Zbot, you need to make liblist.gam have the Metamod line. Then you need to make a shortcut to steam.exe. Right click that shortcut and look at the Target section… you will see this:
“C:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe”
Add the bolded part to the end like this:
“C:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe” -applaunch 10 +localinfo mm_gamedll dlls/zbotcz.dll
Now you can use Zbot with Metamod!

Fix Lag Problem when Playing on Battle.net
Saturday, April 12th, 2008If you are behind a router/gateway with another computer and you tried playing StarCraft together with other people on Battle.net, you might have noticed that it was really laggy and unplayable. To fix this problem, all you have to do is change the ports for one of the computers on your network. The default port for Battle.net is 6112 and it lags because it can’t handle more than one computer in that port.
So all you have to do is go to your router/gateway’s Port Forward page and set one of your computers to use a port between 6113 and 6119 (UDP, not TCP). After you forward a port for one of your computers, you need to open the Registry Editor for that computer. To do this, click Start, Run, and press enter after you type regedit. In the left side of the registry editor, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Battle.net\Configuration. Now click Edit > New DWORD Value, and name it Game Data Port. Double click that value that you’ve just created, click Decimal in the Base area, and type the port that you forwarded for your computer in ‘Value data’ (6114 for example), and press OK.
Your computers sharing the same router/gateway should now be able to play on Battle.net with other people with no lag!
