Hi Guys.
I got bored recently and decided to fire up some single player q3 again. On this one map when i load it up, it wont load the bots it's meant to, when I try to manually load a bot it says AAS not initialized.
Can anyone help me out?

the .aas component is the file used for pathfinding by bots. Without they can't be added. You probably have a custom map you're trying to play on. You could try contacting the maker and ask him if he has or could produce the .aas but this will most likely fail. No real fix.

Check that you dont have any addons installed in the game, they can 'overwrite' the core game files when the game's loaded.
if clearing any of those doesn't work, also try opening pak0.pk3 (in \quakefolder\baseq3\) with a zip program and finding the map in question (maps/q3dm10.bsp). There should be a corresponding bot file in the same location (maps/q3dm10.aas). If it's not there then there's something v wrong with your copy of quake.
We can try a few more things if these prove unsucessfull.

I re-installed it. Lots my game progress but... its ok, almost back to where I was before -- we'll see how it goes. Gotta love playing nightmare, love quake 3
So oldschool now.... (brings back many memories)

gotta admit, i still usually have to try q3dm18 a couple times before i beat it on nightmare. damn bots kill each other too fast.
trick seems to be getting lg or ssg at that quad bounce and just camping like a bastard until you can grab the quad, then go nuts.

Ok, I opened up pak0.pk3 and the map in quesiton is q3dm7, the corresponding .aas file is there also!
Still... bots still won't load. When loading the map none of the bots show up ( like they normaly would in the load screen ). I also tried turning off sv_pure and restarting the match -- no good. Also, this is point release 1.32
Even if I run a skirmish match and have the bots in there it won't load then. Maybe they messed up point release 1.32 or something?
More help?!
