ENT Gaming

Can someone explain how the bots work at the moment..

Some reason, some games I can join, some games I cannot join.

Sometimes, I have to jump from different realms to join said game, EG, moving from West to East, or Europe.

Here's an example on ENT hosted game I cannot join.

So what's going on here? Is there Garena exclusive games or something? Thought we could join them all. :<

Hi @SoulxReaver,

Hosting bots use a program called Ghost++. In the settings they are configured to connect to all servers specified, and this allows games to be joined cross realm. Now, if a bot runs into an issue where it cannot connect to let's say USEast, but the bot can still connect to the other servers, people from USWest/Asia/Europe/Eurobattle will be able to join the games. Now since the bot did not connect to USEast properly, people from that specific server will not be able to join games hosted on that bot specifically. The bots run on different instances and all use different CD-keys/configurations to host the games we all enjoy playing.

These types of errors take time to resolve since they can appear for very different reasons.

I've made a spreadsheet if you'd like to see what bots are on what server. Do note that this spreadsheet is not real time and I update it at my leisure.

Google Sheet : ENT bot status

Let me know if you have any issues with the link.

Awesome Table, though it seems to be very out of date (as you mentioned not being live) at the moment.. almost all bots named like this "Ent.Hosting# #=Number does not work.

So far 2, 11, 13, do not work for Battlenet

How do you connect to EuroBattle specifically? Is it a separate Battlenet?

EuroBattle is a private server and you require their special launcher and a client patched to 1.28.2. If you google them their main page has a basic guideline of how to connect to their servers.

Some bots don't actually share the naming scheme mentioned on the spreadsheet. It is only meant to display their general names as posted in the games list. I update the spreadsheet maybe once per day, but the only thing that really changes are the Asia bots. The others seem to be much more consistent with staying online.

If you're trying to add the bots to your friends list try a variety of options such as the following:
Ent.Hosting1 or try EntHosting1

If you're looking to add bots and are unable to find their names let's me know.
