Hey Gothmonk! Don't know if you still need help, but I finally figured out how to get bots working after some digging / research and help from Uleat and Kaless59 via PMs.

First off, bots aren't currently set up with Akka's installer (which is amazing! btw), so you have to recompile the binaries / source and copy / paste them over the current ones in your eqemu folder. Basically, I had to follow a few pieces of the guide from here http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?Complet...Guide&frm=Main

Follow the steps to download the Git program, Visual Studios, and CMake. Then follow the steps about creating a folder called source and go from there until it discusses copying the files over. I didn't copy all of the ones listed, because I didn't want to overwrite my quests / maps / logs, etc... but almost all the others I did. After that you're done with following that guide.

Then you'll need to go to https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob...09_30_bots.sql and source that into your db.

Afterward, you'll need to add this in your db via query

ALTER TABLE db_version ADD bots_version int(11) DEFAULT '0' AFTER version;


Then change the value from 0 to 9007

Then run Eqemu_update program in your folder and hit #4.

After that, you should be good to go!
