btw lads, don't forget that you can't 'distribute' this to yourselves via cds, hdds or floppies. Maybe set up a serial connection from work to your house...

As a reminder, here is what the Quake 3 Arena page says about this:
This is a demo test. It is not a demo. This test may only be distributed electronically. Physical media (e.g. CD-ROM's, floppies, etc.) redistribution of the demo test is prohibited. Refer to the End User License Agreement for further details.

Found a good connection, the first 1 I had was slowing down to about 100 bytes per sec, www.fileplanet.com is alot faster Think I can wait around for another hour.

Still in work,
Finally found a site that's giving me a decent 33kB a second...
...about phuckin' time.
I think I'll be a nice good law abiding lad and just send it to myself at home via email.
(that, and I don't HAVE any physical media to use!)
I'd better get to see this today....

Me and Regi spent an hour playing multiplayer and against bots too. (regi won.. booo)
Mmm Bots roxor alright. Nasty and smart. They also slag you and compliment you depending on how you are doing...
Its HARD to see your enemy a lot of the time (roll on all bright skins or something similar).
Strafe jumping is back and then some.
LG is very very like the UT green gun. Feels sweet and has a "push back" element to it.
mmmm!
Rockets seem better but the levels are so big that selecting what weap you are holding is a big part of winning.... time for devore to lose his crap config
Beyond that I think we may have a winner... if this game takes off it could be the start of another golden age. Maybe.
DeV.

DAMN NICE, thats what it is,bots are pretty nasty though. I'd say that TFC's out the window for the next few days if not weeks....
Lunchtimes may never be the same again My sys admin wants a copy of it, I like to see him skrim after what he did to us a few months ago!

Spotted this on Shugashack... sounds like these bot commands have better TP than most people
Team Play with Bots
In Quake3 Arena you can control all the bots on your team. You can, for example ask them to defend a location, conduct a patrol, cover your back, as well as many other useful actions.
Communicating with bots is only possibly in Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag. The only way your bots will listen to you is if you use the command team_say. Team_say is much like the talk command but only your team mates can hear you. The default team_say key is ‘Y’
The first command you need to give your bots is, "I am the leader" this puts you in charge and everyone starts listening to you. If you don’t want to be leader anymore pass leadership on to a bot by saying, "Grunt you are the leader". Or just give up leadership all together and let the bots figure it out by saying, "I quit being the leader".
For the examples below I use Grunt and Ranger as the names. These names can be replaced with anyone on your team.
Start up a game with Grunt and Ranger on your team and practice with these commands.
/say_team I am the leader -You are now in control of your bots
/say_team grunt follow me - Grunt now follows you wherever you go
/say_team ranger camp the rl - Ranger will now go to the rocket launcher and defend it
/say_team grunt dismiss -Grunt will now stop following you and roam freely
/say_team grunt patrol from ra to rg - Grunt will now patrol from the red armor to the rocket launcher
/say_team ranger report - Ranger will tell you that he is camping the rocket launcher
/say_team ranger follow grunt -Ranger will now patrol with Grunt.
Actions can be given to multiple bots by including (and | , ) between the bots you want to command. For example:
/say_team grunt and ranger camp here
/say_team grunt, ranger camp here
/say_team grunt and ranger follow me
General Group Commands
/say_team everyone follow me
/say_team everybody follow me
/say_team everyone camp here
** Note: You can not give the message /say_team everyone follow grunt because Grunt will try and follow himself.
The basic bot commands:
grunt (report | what are you doing?)
grunt (follow | accompany | cover | go with) ranger
grunt (follow | accompany) ranger for (number) (seconds | minutes)
grunt (go to | go get) (item | weapon)
grunt (patrol) from (item | weapon) to (item | weapon) for (number) (seconds | minutes)
grunt (patrol) from (item | weapon) to (item | weapon)
grunt (camp near) (item | weapon)
grunt (camp | defend | guard) (here | there | weapon | item)
grunt (camp | defend | guard) (here | there | weapon | item) for (number) (seconds | minutes)
grunt (help | meet) ranger
grunt (help | meet) ranger (at | near) the (item | weapon)
grunt lead the way -> then give grunt an action, he’ll wait for you to follow him.
grunt (kill | hunt down | get | go get) visor
grunt wait for me (near | at) (item | weapon)
grunt wait for me (near | at) the (item | weapon)
grunt (dismissed | dismiss | stop action |
grunt who is (the leader | team leader)
grunt is not (the leader | team leader)
I (quit | stop) being (the leader | team leader)
Squads and Sub teams
You can form squads within your team. Commanding the entire squad by addressing them with the squad name you indicate
An example of squad forming.
/say_team grunt and ranger are in squad beta - Grunt and Ranger are now in the squad called beta
/say_team beta follow me - Grunt and Ranger will follow you.
/say_team grunt leave your squad -Grunt leaves squad beta
grunt (and | ,) Ranger are in (team | squad) alpha
grunt (and | ,) Ranger (join | create) (team | squad) alpha
grunt leave your (team | squad)
ranger join (team | squad) alpha
grunt ungroup
CTF
Giving your bots commands in CFT is very important. One thing to remember is letting a bot become the leader and listening to them is sometimes the best strategy.
All the above commands work in CTF Plus
grunt (get | capture) the (red | blue | enemy) flag
grunt (get | capture) (red | blue |enemy) flag
grunt (defend | guard | camp) the base <-friendly flag
If a bot is the team leader and you forgot what you have been ordered to do then just type one of the following and the leader will tell you.
For these you do not need to address the leader directly.
/say_team what is my command
/say_team what should I do
/say_team what am I supposed to do
/say_team what is my job
Some examples for CTF:
/say_team I am the leader
/say_team grunt defend the base
/say_team ranger capture the enemy flag
Synonyms are available for most items:
Red armor = ra
Yellow armor = ya
Shotgun = sg
Machinegun = mg
Grenade launcher = gl
Rocket launcher = rl
Plasma Gun = plasma
Lighting Gun = lg
Railgun = rail | rg
Bfg10k = bfg
Quad damage = quad
Regeneration = regen
Invisibility = invis
Battle Suit = bs
Haste = haste
