Basic Installation
Before setting up fun-bots, you need to have a Venice Unleashed server setup. How do I setup a Venice Unleashed server? Please note that we cannot help you with setting up your Venice Unleashed server.
Need even more help? Ask the community on the Discord server.
We recommend at least the following hardware:
| Type | Minimum requirements | Recommended requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Operating System | Windows 7 or newer, Wine 5.0 or newer | - |
| CPU | 3 GHz | > 3 GHz |
| Memory (RAM) | 1 GB | 2 GB |
Note that the hardware requirements depend on the amount of bots you are going to activate on your server. Venice Unleashed is single-threaded on 32-bit. The higher the tickrate (GHz) of your CPU, the less lag you'll experience. The server is never going to use more than 4 GB of RAM because it's 32-bit.
Before downloading fun-bots, read the documentation on how to use mods.
Download the version you'd like to use for fun-bots. We recommend to download a stable release if you plan on running it on a public server, but usually pre-releases are stable enough too.
| Type | URL | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Releases (recommended) | Download here | The most stable version, has a long release cycle |
| Pre-Releases | Download here | Less stable, contains more features, but also may contain more issues |
| Development Builds | Download here | Untested versions of fun-bots, fresh from the development team |
Installing fun-bots is extremely easy. Unpack the compressed file into the Admin/mods directory (see the documentation on mods). It should look like this after on Windows, but your folder name may look different (the 4 numbers after fun-bots are the version you downloaded).
Open the ModList.txt file using a text editor and add the name of your file to the list.
Start your server, and have fun using bots!
