April 2026   ADS help this site... Please disable your Ad Blocker!!!

I have not updated dodbits.com in a while... been very busy with dod 1.3 on Sturmbot.org.

In April I want to update a few items, check the RCBot2 waypoints and pages, just a tidy up.

10 April 2026 - I have already adjusted my DoD:S dedicated server at home - with RCBot2 article and updated the download for it. 

The reason was that RCBot2 had a recent update and files here are getting a bit old... like a year too old.
I'll work through the files that need a update and post updates here.

12 April 2026 - Article adjusted  LINUX RCBot2 installation guide adjusted items so a Listen Server works with MetaMod:Source and the new RCBot2 version 2 alpha 8.

12 April 2026 - RCBot2 installation download (mirror of APGRoboCop github release) has changed to RCBot2 version 2 Alpha 8 for Windows and Linux. Both OS versions are in the download, both are different installs and readmes (PDF with images), especially affected is the Linux missing game files, you must read the readme to fix that issue when using RCBot2 on Linux native.

 I am trying to keep the guides as simple as possible, as always the many issues in dods make them a little more complex. I hope my new guides and downloads reduce some of that issue.

December 2011

To all readers have a safe and happy Xmas.

It's been an interesting year and quite busy, well for me anyway and the little time I have for this part time interest. Although not much has changed in dod:s, other games I play have, hence dodbits.com is not all about dod anymore. CSS has undergone some changes, the big one for me was the crosshairs, finally the Devs took steps to correct it's obvious failings... you just could not see it on some displays and situations.

The current Mini Map-radar issue for dods and CSS is a bad slip by the Devs, that is one area of the player HUD you never want to have wrong, although no one mentions it much as a tactical tool, if you really look hard enough the "overview" map when set up correctly can help your game.

TF2... the game is obviously a good one, the whole hats thing is over my head, (pardon the pun) I just don't get quite a few parts of TF2, hence why info' on it is very rare around here.

Ham and Jam still continues to be developed, the devs are few and good on them for not releasing, it was the correct call not to release at a time that the game was not ready and other games like Red Orchestra 2 are realising.

Very sad to hear of the passing of a young H&J dev team member Mitchell Curtis Keesee (Engineer).
