Adding Bots to installed Akkadius server

[Uleat]

I think that I tried out a very early version of his installer..but, I can't remember what all was installed...


Essentially, you will need to:

- re-run cmake, delete the cache, (configure,) select the BOTS option, (configure again, then generate.)

- recompile all of your binaries (needed since the update script starts the world binary and checks for exit arguments) and copy the binaries over to your server folder.

- manually run eqemu_update.pl.
-- Run option 3 first to ensure that your standard database is up-to-date. (Process is 3 check for pending, 3 again to apply pending)
-- Run option 4 next to install/update the required BOTS db schema. (Same process except 4 and 4.)

That's pretty much it.


Don't run any of the update sql files unless specfically told to do so, or you have a 100% grasp on what you're doing.

The update manifests are version coordinated with the update script and will check for specific criteria before queuing (pending) required updates.


If you have already tried to manually apply any of the BOTS sql's, post back and I'll try to explain how to reverse those changes.

Hi,

Im having trouble adding Bots to the DB.

I did recompile the binaries with the BOTS option. (2 days ago)

I did install EQemu with the new installer, on a fresh installed VM.
(replaced binaries with BOTS binaries)

I manually ran the eqemu_update.pl

When i try to create a bot (in the client), i get an error that the bot command cant find peq.bot_data. And yes i cant find it in the DB either.

running the eqemu_update.pl (option 3 and 4) doesnt do the trick.




Am i missing something?

Thanks for the install script, saves a huge amount of time compared to the manual install!
