I'm currently having trouble getting BRenbot to work. Whenever I open it up and it connects to IRC it says that it is unable to connect to the server. The actual message is: "[BR] Warning: The FDS has not responded to the last two status requests, it may have gone offline."
Here is a screenshot:
Can anyone tell me why this is happening or how to fix it? Thanks in advance.

Try running the server and BrenBot.exe in Admin mode and XP compat mode
Renguard is a wonderful initiative

Well unfortunately, even after matching the admin ports and trying to run it in compatibility mode as an administrator, it still is not working. Do you have any more ideas? Should use a specific port or ip or what?

I just tried that and unfortunately it didn't work either. In fact, when I started up the bot it also came up with another error saying "port: 25300, server: error 10048 creating socket: unknown error"
Would it matter if I had installed Resurection before making sure the bot worked? and if Resurection was causing the problem for some reason how would I get itto work with the server and bot?

Well I changed the port to 25301 and it fixed the error 10048, but BRenbot is still giving the the error about the FDS not responding, even after changing it to a lowercase t as you suggested.
Also, I forgot to mention that from the very beginning it's always been having trouble finding the correct log files and for some reason they aren't being created so I have to go into the folder and rename an old one or create a new one myself, would that have any effect. Do you know if resurrection would have any effect on it?

I think I found it....what was happening was that I had installed the FDS to one location but I had to move the FDS folder for some reason, and so the FDS kept writing to the old location, not the new one, which is why BRenbot couldn't find the files...
I'll have to check it out tomorrow and make sure it works. Anyway, thanks for you're help, and I'll let you know later if it worked.

Well I got it to work so now BRenbot can detect the FDS. However, I host the server on a different log in name (for the computer itself) so that I can play Renegade as well as host the serer, but when I switch users to play Renegade it disconnects me and the bot from IRC. Also, how do you get the moderator status to work correctly, and if I turn off half-renguard mode will some of the RG commands still work, because for some reason when I run resurection I can't run Renguard. And lastly, how do you edit things like the vehicle and mine limit for each map?

No need to switch users, just add +multi to the shortcut target for the FDS and for Renegade itself.

Read the readme.txt file, specifically the part about moderator authentication.
