How To Crack Team Fortress 2 Lan Without Steam
How can I setup TF2 so that two players (myself and someone inexperienced with FPS) can both play in a map against bots, but not people. I guess I need to hunt through the internet list trying to find servers that are populated and checking namelists to see if they look like bots. The offline practice probably won't work as that looks like single player. Any advice on how best to do this, or just tips to make finding a server on the internet list like this a bit easier would be greatly appreciated. We're on the same LAN, so maybe there's a way of hosting a LAN game that both me & the other person can join?
Here is an instruction on how to create a server and put bots on it: • Make sure you have the port 27015 accessible for connections. • Open the game console. Options⇨Keyboard⇨Advanced.⇨Enable developer console. Press ~ / ` to open the console at any time. • Type sv_lan 0 if you want the game to be public, or sv_lan 1 for LAN only.

Public server is recommended • Type map, replacing with the name of the map you want to play. Or press the [+] to the right of BROWSE SERVERS in main menu instead. • If the server is public and you don't want anyone to intrude, you can set a password: Type sv_password, replacing with some simple password. Sv_password 1234) • Set the bot difficulty: tf_bot_difficulty, where is from 0 (the easiest) to 3. Tf_bot_difficulty 0) •: tf_bot_add: red blue: scout soldier pyro demoman heavyweapons engineer medic sniper spy (e.g. Tf_bot_add blue heavyweapons) To remove all bots: tf_bot_kick all Here are some ways for your friend to connect.
If one fails, try the next one. • Join the game via Steam. In Steam Friends list press ▼ and Join Game. • In console: connect:27015, where is your (server's). Connect 11.22.5) • Try the same thing with your (server's) local IP address (find it in /) If nothing works, see the step 1 of server creation instruction. Hmm didn't immediately work - couldn't see it in the LAN tab on the 2nd player, and sending a game invite led to 'unable to connect to server.
I may need to do various port forwarding / translation for that. As an alternative I tried doing 'create server'. Which started a game my friend could join. But I couldn't, just left looking at the 2fort bridge from on high. And couldn't figure out how to add bots either.
I've been googling a fair bit about this and can't find a single good tutorial. – Jul 24 '11 at 19:32 •. The TF2 wiki has that lists the commands, AI and supported maps that bots can be used on. You do not need cheats to be on to use this type of bot. But puppet bots do.
So you start the server, join a team, say RED. Then type into the console tf_bot_add blue Your friend joins and selects team RED too. Then type tf_bot_add 13 You will then have 8 people on both teams. If you wish to change the difficulty of the bots, before adding the first bot, type tf_bot_difficulty.
Followed by the difficulty as a number: 0 = easy, 3 = expert, default 1 = normal. This is what I do; it uses a few things from various answers above. • Use the fastest LAN machine as your server, and figure out its IP address by typing ipconfig in a command prompt.
