PEZZALUCIFER has once again released a update to one of the best mods for Call of Duty World at War thus far: PeZBOT 003p! For those who don’t already know, PeZBOT is a mod that lets you play along AI controlled players, so even if you have no one to practice on, you have your own computer buddies to gank on! They can even be useful to balance teams, or really for whatever usage you would want them for. With this new update to 003p, the mod is better then ever, and well worth checking out.

– Bots work on all game modes. (Bots will not get the flag in Capture the Flag)
– Bots have been tested and working on version 1.5 of World at War. (Please do not report any bugs found with older versions!)
– Bots DO NOT work in Nazi Zombie Mode or Co-Op! They are for Multiplayer only.

Performance Tips:
You may have noticed that when you try to play against a lot of bots, the game lags. You can try a few different things to help with this.

1) Defrag your hard-drive, this will speed your computer up quite a bit in general. For XP – go to Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Degragmenter. Defraging could take anywhere from 30 minutes, to many hours – it depends on the size of your hard-drive.
2) Close any unneeded background applications. This can be quite a big performance hit if you have a lot of unneeded background applications running. Try disabling onces you don’t need.
3) Turn your anti-aliasing down, or off completely. You can get quite a large performance boost from turning your AA down to 2x, or off completely.

Known Bugs/Issues:
– Bots do not play Capture The Flag correctly at this time.
– Bots do not hold the correct weapon in killcam – this cannot be fixed.
– Bots may get stuck on or in geometry such as trees, etc. If you see any of this, please take a screenshot and email it to:
lord_gannondorf@hotmail.com or homelandwarrior@msn.com
– Bots sometimes fall under the map – we are not sure of the cause, but if you know “exactly” where they fall through the ground, please take a screenshot of the area and email it to:
lord_gannondorf@hotmail.com
– The game will lag if you add too many bots (More than about 16).

DVARS are as follows:
svr_pezbots //number of bots; (defaults to 0)
svr_pezbots_team //team to put bots on, “axis”, “allies”, “autoassign”; (defaults to “autoassign”)
svr_pezbots_dewards //set to 1 to disable bots using dogs and artillery (do this before adding bots or it won’t work); (defaults to 0)
svr_pezbots_skill //global skill level that effects all bots, value between 0 and 1, 1 being highest
//0 being lowest. (defaults to 0.5)
svr_pezbots_drawdebug //draws bot debug info; 0 or 1; (defaults to 0) (requires developer_script set to 1)
svr_pezbots_mode //sets the mode to start the mod in, options are “dev” and “normal” (defaults to normal)
//(requires developer_script set to 1 and developer set to 1)
svr_pezbots_WPDrawRange //waypoint debug draw range (defaults to 1000 inches)

How to install on Windows XP:
1) Once you have downloaded the .zip file, extract it to the desktop temporarily.
2) Now that you have it extracted, you should have a folder called PeZBOTWAW on your desktop.
3) Right Click on the folder, and click “Copy” or “Cut”.
4) Navigate to this directory (default): “C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW” (To see the Local Settings folder you may need to activate “Show hidden files and Folders”. If you don’t know how to do that – use Google.)
5) In there should be another folder called “Mods”, if there isn’t one – create one.
6) Open the “Mods” folder, then Right Click, and “Paste” the PeZBOTWAW folder we copied earlier from the dekstop.
7) Now this is the bit that’s different from PeZBOT for CoD4 – You *have to* load the mod through the command line.
