Hi all! I apologize for how quiet my mic is! If there's enough demand, I can re-upload the video. Somehow, I didn't realize until now. Have a good one!
Very helpful video. This is a lot of stuff that would've been overwhelming to try to navigate for the average player who just wants to get bots up and running.
Thank you for taking almost half an hour of your life time to explain this whole process to us. With your help I was able to set up my own server, and now I can play against bots whenever BF4 becomes too epileptic.
Cool to see gamers take control back from the games they bought even if it is 10 years later, been thinking if i should get Insurgency or try Battlefield 2 or 3 with mods.
EA hates this stuff, they know it's a direct competition. And modders are usually more careful about providing an hassle-free and meaningful experience
Priscilla Crossbreed Yeah, I have uninstalled it since the bots require a lot of work, on one of the supported bot maps one bot was in a tank and was continuously firing towards me even though I was behind a large rock and if I moved it kept firing where I was like it could see through the rock. The bots need a lot of work even without tanks they could see me through loads of bushes for very far away like they had heat vision like the Predator.
Love your tutorial very easy to understand..... I actually forgot some things and found your tutorial and was able to get back on track...Thanks, Annette ❤💯👍
I think Venice Unleashed will make a great success but just it is more finished, when it has more mods and that "Project Reality" like mod too. That's when players will come back to this game.
Interesting video, Virtually no sound though. Work around: While playing video, record audio with Audacity. In Audacity "cntrl-A to select audio, then "file menu-effect-/volume and compression-/amplify", then in popup box "set level-preview-apply". "Export-as" mpg. Start video and audio file at same time, Enjoy. Not a new video but good information still. It will help me as I endeavor to setup a VU server. Thank You...
I had the same problem (no server folder under the base bf3 file in documents) I opened my windows taskbar with the windows key and searched for VU client. Then I clicked “open file location”. The first one to pop up for me was “Activate BF3”. I clicked that, a prompt popped up for about 10 seconds and then I checked my bf3 document folder again and the server file was there. He seemed to skip over this part since it probably wasn’t his first time installing it for this video :/ I’ve only made it this far 😭
Hi, I know this is an old video, but I am having problems launching the VU Client. I've just downloaded VU and launched the Activate BF3 exe, and it seemed to activate successfully. But then when I try to run the VU Client, a black screen appears showing Build 20067, and then immediately closes, nothing happens afterwards, and I am not taken to the VU interface. What do I do?
Hello friend, I need to ask you if you know any way or any mod to change the map, whenever I start a server it always starts in metro operation and I want to know how to choose the map in the middle of the game and how to make maplist.txt work correctly
This is incredible, time to dust off my BF3 copy and install, awesome that u can create your own server, add bots and do whatever, saw some people had BF2 maps if i'm not mistaking, are those also mods? How do u install custom maps?
If i want others to be able to join my server do i put something else in procon instead of local host... I would like public but password protected...so far friend can join me when i have used setup with typing local host into procon and launching the vu 30 server... people say they are unable to connect .. the server says they have requested to joing but how do they even join or what am i doing wrong... Do I need to type public instead of localhost all lowercase ?
I got stuck on loading screen at the first launch of the client version 19968. A full-fledged PC that meets the requirements of the game, updated Windows 8.1, and all related stuff, such as VC or dotNet. I followed all the instructions step by step, tried different tricks. No results, empty logs. Bad luck, huh. I hope the problem will be fixed in the future (even though I have been waiting for more than a damn year, but I have no right to blame anyone)
I have 2 Bf3 accounts, one is on another laptop. I set up VU server in my desktop ,I can join to that server with VU client in same pc. but cannot join with my laptop as vu client with "failed to establish a connection to the server" , I see in my server that player from laptop try to join but can't. Also from client side can't see my server ping number but only that sign '-'
@@average-dev Sure, i have an Ryzen 5 5600x + GTX 1660S with 16GB ram. Idk why the low fps. Its sad cause i like to play BF3 and in my region doesn't have servers to play, only one.

Nice video tutorial man, I tried that before but I m not able to play because i dunno how but because of your video I can now play bot match. My only question is why I m laging (like high ping but whenever I check it's low ping) gameplay is smooth but its like an delayed action, oh it appears whenever i increase bot number but if its default like 5/6 its fine. I have an decent laptop so I guess system its not an issue? I hope you understand what I'm saying, sorry for my bad English :)
@@noodl3d Ohh hello I eventually fixed it by choosing 30 hz server and now i can make 20/20 but beyond that like 32/32 the gameplay is going to lag. And also the new fun bot mod update is also help to fix my issue. I hope in the next update there is some level progression
@@ЕгорВадимович-с6м Haven't used it since that post, i recall playing with bots and they were very OP but someone said u can reduce their difficulty stats.
@@noodl3d Thanks, man, I have it. Read in a forum that, we've to save waypoints and paths on those conquest maps then the BOTs will spawn. But I'm doing something wrong... still can't save a trace and waypoints, using the waypoints-editor, that works.
Hey dude, really nice video. For now I have a problem with my own server: People can't join it. It says: did not receive a reply from server some time. Some people said I have to add a permission in the firewall of my PC (because my PC is running the server). I did so, but there is still the issue. Do you know how to fix that problem? Thanks!
Unless you have an alternative way to add yourself as admin. You may be able to put the fun-bots admin command inside startup.txt but I’m not sure, maybe give it a try. Anyway, glad the video helped!

Venice Unleashed can currently only be played with an internet connection but if your hosting a server, you have a direct connection. Meaning there shouldn’t be any lag or high ping.
Hi guys I dunno why I m laging (like high ping but whenever I check it’s low ping) gameplay is smooth but its like an delayed action, oh it only appears whenever i increase bot number but if its default like 5/6 its fine. I’m using 60 Hz VU server with fun bots enabled and procon for server setting. I have an decent laptop and that lag doesn’t appear whenever I play on base game not on VU so I guess system its not an issue, please guys I can’t wait to play this since I since I found out I could play with bots (I m not noob but I tired to play with some tryharder in online match hahaha) Thank you Guys I hope you guys cam understand my situation
this dude talking as he discovered fire when hosting a server that is 100% dependant in some shady master server computer who knows where to grant him access with their user account to the platform. bro, bf3/bf4/bfbc2/mohw etc server emulators with actual master servers have been around for more than 10 years already. and these shitty bots only work in TDM. they are just zombie bots that roam and shoot, they dont know how to do shit. so even bf2 bots are better than these.

When i press f12, no menu shows up except that i can move my mouse
how do i get my friend to join my server? use a different port number in procon?
Thank you very much!!
I for some reason don't have a server file?
I got it off of EA (I have gamepass ultimate so I got it for free)
should I buy it off of steam instead?
you gotta make the server folders yourself
