---INTRODUCTION

This archive contains a series of configuration files which you can use
with BotJohnny to enable CRbot support.

Please read this Readme file before use.

The version number of these files corresponds to the version number of
BotJohnny required to use them plus a letter marking any subsequent
revisions.


---INSTALLATION

You should have BotJohnny installed and running Eraser before you install
these files.  It should go without saying that you will need CRbot
installed before you should bother with this.

The following will set up you with a Deathmatch game, but it can just as
easily be used with Capture the Flag and Deathmatch Teamplay if you just
substitute the relevant words.


1.  Load BotJohnny

2.  At the bottom of the screen, next to the profile name, click "Add"

3.  Type in "CRBot Deathmatch" for the name of the profile and click OK.
    (It doesn't matter what you select from the list below as the settings
	get overwritten with this archive anyway)

4.  In your BotJohnny folder you will now have a new sub-folder called
    "CRBot Deathmatch"
	
5.  Unzip this archive into that folder, making sure all files are replaced.

6.  If you quit BotJohnny, load it up again

7.  Choose "CRBot Deathmatch" from the profiles list at the bottom.

8.  Go to the MAPS tab and check the start map is the one you want.

9.  Go to the JOHNNY tab and change the Quake2 folder and Location
    of Maps folder to your ones.

10. Use as normal.


---CREATING ADDITIONAL CRBOT PROFILES

To create additional CRbot profiles AFTER you have installed it as above,
EITHER repeat the process with a new profile name OR you may find it easier
to do the following:

1.  Load up Windows Explorer

2.  Find the folder where BotJohnny is installed
    (eg c:\program files\botjohnny)
	
3.  Click FILE then NEW, then FOLDER.

4.  Name this folder with whatever name you want to give the new profile.
    (eg "CRBot Capture the Flag")
	
5.  Go into the folder of the previously installed CRbot setup
    (eg "CRBot Deathmatch")

6.  Select all the files in this folder (you don't need CRREADME.TXT again
    if you don't want it)

7.  Whilst holding down CTRL, drag the files from this folder into the new
    one (eg "CRBot Capture the Flag")
	
8.  Load up BotJohnny.

9.  Select the new profile from the list at the bottom.

10. Make sure your START map and maps list are as required, then use as normal.


---IMPORTANT NOTES

You should bear in mind the following before using this:

x  When the program says the word "Eraser", mentally substitute it with
   the word "CRBot".  ;-)
   

---CURRENT ISSUES WITH THIS RELEASE

x  The CTF Team editor - all the bots chosen here will be added to the
   game, but they currently only join random sides.  This might be
   a CRbot bug, or I might be doing something wrong.  ;-)  You shouldn't
   need to upgrade B.J. to fix this (only the config files)
   

The following aspects of the program only work with Eraser at present.
They will have no effect with CRbot:

x  The Chat Editor
x  Bot attributes such as aggression, firing accuracy and so on
x  The "Viewable Weapons" list from the JOHNNY tab
x  Joining teams (CTF or deathmatch)
x  "Ideal Number of Players Per Team" (CTF box, MAIN tab)
x  "Client Latency" from the OPTIONS tab.
x  The checkbox underneath the skill levels ("auto adjust skill") - note, you can
   still have the skill automatically adjusted by the bot by choosing "(Auto-Skill Adjust)"
   from the list of skills.


---FUTURE RELEASES

x  Fix above issues.  ;-)
x  Perhaps add max skill level.  With CRbot you can have minimum and
   maximum skill levels, if you like.
