AccelDefault T 1.52 by Equalizer
A new scripting format for pretty much the same strategy as the default terran AI in an attempt to make it faster. Focuses on using many units and completing tech tree.
|
AI scripting is entry level modding and its simplistic nature is what makes it so accessible. These scripts were created by everyday Starcraft players with little or no programming experience whatsoever. They simply wanted to have fun rearranging the computer's build orders. While you won't find a mind-boggling computer opponent that will "out think" you or present some in depth gaming experience, you will find a fun and challenging opponent for all skill levels.
Non-Cheating: The following mods do not receive any free money whatsoever and are a testament to the hours of time spent manipulating lines of code in hopes to produce a better Ai using scripts alone. While every one of these scripts is a far stronger opponent than the default Ai, without the extra income, these Ai's will probably not be much of a challenge to the average starcraft player; at least not 1v1. Adding a second computer opponent however may surprise you AccelDefault T 1.52 by EqualizerA new scripting format for pretty much the same strategy as the default terran AI in an attempt to make it faster. Focuses on using many units and completing tech tree.
Ashara Ai Hv1.2 by AsharaA complete Ai that features random builds for all 3 races. A favorite among our own BWAI family, this Ai is extremely well written as would be expected from a Computer Science student. If you're looking for the ultimate non-cheating script, then you have just found one of the best ever. Don't be fooled by the fact that this Ai doesn't receive any free money. You will be pleasantly surprised at how challenging this opponent can be under the right circumstances.
CounterZerg v1.03 by Avance70A Zerg-only Ai that is featured in our BWAIWar II & III. This Ai will catch a lot players off-guard with its rush-like aggression and proven zerg build orders. If you're looking for a decent non-cheating Zerg to try out, this is one of the best
Easy_Chat TvP v1.1 by Easy_ChatFrustrated by the computers inability to use small attack forces effeciently, Easy_Chat set out to build a sleeping-giant-like Terran Ai in which the initial attacks were postponed in favor of a more substantial army. Play this Ai 1v2 and be prepared for when all hell comes knocking. As with Queen of Blades, Easy_Chat has implemented a random final attack_loop that will keep your Protoss guessing at what could possibly be coming next; You might want to invest in some observers.
Peppe's Protoss v4b by PeppeThis Protoss only script is designed to be an all-around AI, and is capable of playing on both ground and land maps. It will fully tech, mix units, and reach the unit cap.
Kryose T-AI v1.1 by KryoseA newer Ai still under construction and needing testers, this Terran only AI features three random build orders with random rushes. Theoretically you might not be attacked by the AI once when it's teching up, or you might be rushed quite often with few breaks. The AI also has random types of attacks. One game might comprise of a healthy blend of Medics, Marines, Firebats, and Ghosts, while another army might consist of 90 Firebats supported by a bunch of medics. Kyrose's main goal was to make the AI a fun and dynamic one.
Myk AI v3.5 by MykA new and upcoming AI. It contains a powerful ZvT AI that focuses heavily on lurker aggression and using them to secure a strong economy. Defilers may appear late game to wreak havoc on the terran. Beware of the ambushes! Also contains Terran and Protoss scripts that utilize more modern strategies.
Panda AI 0.2 by PandaBBPanda AI is a new, powerful ZvT AI vs AI script. It focuses on heavy ling aggression and fast hive tech. Nothing worse than a ultralisk swarm attacking when you are not ready yet! Also features a fast expanding Protoss script.
Raynor 2.1 by bajadulceOriginally created as an Ai vs. Ai script, this Ai has been adopted for human play, but still maintains its original aggressive "all-in" approach. If you're looking for an aggressive non-cheating opponent, this might be one of the most efficient and most pestering one you will face. The latest PvT addition features 5 random build orders to pester you TvP players. Unique to this mod, an FMP switch is included that allows the computer to detect Fa$te$t type maps. It will then adjust its build orders accordingly!
Racine no$ 1.0 by Emmanuel RacineMost know only of Racine's insane Ai's, but he also wrote a non-cheating Ai vs. Ai script back in 2005. This script was amazingly built from scratch literally overnight. Imagine what he would be capable of had he been able to put some time into this? What separates this Ai from others, is that Racine set out to write a standard pro build order. So expect to see the Ai build exactly what it is supposed to... and a lot of it.
Rocky AI 2.05 by Jh24This AI contains three separate non-cheating AI scripts for Terran, Zergand Protoss. These scripts are very basic, but will adapt their strategy depending on the race. Several random choices are put into the script for the AI. Currently mainly regarding attacking. In some games the AI will leave you alone for a while, while in other games the AI will attack and rush you throughout the game. Usually the result will be something inbetween. If you enjoy intense battles with large armies, Rocky AIs will always be ready to play and give you a fun time!
Unleaded AI v3.3 by Archon_WingUnleaded Ai is the combination of three non cheating AIs that complement each other in style. The scripts are based on the default Blizzard AI's theme of showcasing a large variety of units and delayed larger attacks with better econ. As with all other AI-only mods, unit behavior and micro cannot be changed yet, so it is best played 1v2, 2v3 , etc on limited money maps.
Zelduck Ai v0.3 by ZelduckZelduck was the first to use PYAI to construct a complete Ai consisting of 12 scripts that use typical builds from the current metagame (and some not-so-typical ones). Be on your guard, this AI can sometimes be very passive, and at other times just want to humiliate you. I know from first hand experience in a 2v3 bnet game.. ouch that hurt!
Pro: There seems to be a little confusion as to how the term "Pro" relates to Ai scripting. While no pro gamer will waste his time playing against silly computers, BWAI's goal has always been to provide the veteran player with a challenging 1v1 opponent for standard resource PRO-like maps. Ideally the computer should not cheat, but this is simply not possible utilizing SC's hardcoded internal Ai engine and the modification of scripts alone. Free resources are thus alloted to the computer to compensate for these inherit weaknesses. The use of these free resources and the subsequent build orders however have to be presented in a credible and realistic manner in order to maintain players' respect. This is especially true for opening build orders where instant 2k minerals and gas must not be exploited. The scripts below have done a masterful job in limiting their openings and have adhered to sound Ai principals. These pro scripts are hallmark scripts recognized by "pro" community forums such as gg.net, teamliquid.net, ICCUP, yaoyuam, etc. As a result, their fan bases are huge; HUGE! These are BWAI.com's best scripts. Some of these Ai's may be extremely difficult and some may even seem unbeatable under certain circumstances, but all will have high replayability and all fall within that limit of being a FAIR challenge. The makers of these scripts have varying ideas of what constitutes a stern test and the degree of difficulty can vary accordingly. Try them all! Adun's Fury II v1.0 by bajadulceA complete 3 race Ai which began in early 2004 and was featured in a replay contest @ SEN. It has been revived and overhauled for BWAI Gold in 2008. The difficulty probably leans more towards the extreme end of the spectrum. This could be bad or good depending on what you're looking for in a challenge. There are a few random branches, but mostly the scripts are one-track. This is definitely intended for veteran 1v1 play.
Ahzz v1.12.5 by AhzzA very challenging and very complete Ai featured at Warboards.org since early 2006. The mod's primary goal is to emulate a pro-like build-order while maintaining a realistic approach. If you wanted to play a good team Ai w/ some friends, this would be a great choice. This Ai is very replayable and a must for your hard-drive. Join the fan club and get ready to play one of the funnest mods of all time.
Rama v1.0 by BSW_RamaBSW_Rama basically modifyed Blizzard's standard script by adding some money, increasing the size of the attacks, and strengthened a few of Blizzard's weaker points. The end result is a damn tuff mod and considerably better than Blizzard's "insane" attempt. This is what they should have done!
Racine Ai Kit by Emmanuel RacineBy far the most well known Ai of all time with well over 1/2 a million worldwide downloads it has been a favorite among several top players. If you haven't experienced the mod for yourself, then you are missing out on a part of Starcraft history! This kit has 3 Ai's of which vary in difficulty, 3.0 being the most stern challenge. The other 2 are somewhat easier. Each version was made increasingly harder by demand and the final 3.0 version is probably the best 1v1 challenge you will find. gg!
Extreme: The following mods were written specifically to fully exploit the use of the give_money command at the cost of realism and meant to destroy you as quickly as possible. Most of these scripts will probably be far too unfair for standard resource maps and you can expect relentless hordes of units from a furious computer. Some scripts will be so unbelievably fast to attack, that you may cry foul. We simply don't care! As with our pro scripts, there are varying levels of difficulty with each of these as well and some may be damn near impossible. While we at BWAI are more interested in emulating a human-like opponent for standard resource play, we rose to the challenge to accomidate for these off-center setups. Good Luck.. you're gonna need it! Ashara P$ v1.0 by AsharaThis Protoss script was designed as an Ai vs. Ai script and uses complex multirun threading like no other! Extremely well written code + flawless execution make this Ai by far the toughest Protoss Opponent available! So player beware! So grab some friends as you will need to play as a team vs. this Ai if you want to stand even the slightest chance.
High Powered Mutants by MykOne of the newest additions to the extreme AI section, a very powerful and unfair AI that can easily take on two players on a Fastest type map. It has no concerns withbeing balanced, fair or realistic in any way. He's also included a Protoss and Terran AI, but these are more for soaking up early rushes so you don't lose to the first pack of zerglings if you're playing alone.
M_K III by Michel KlabbersMike has always focused on a high-tech build up, and his mods are guaranteed to be nothing less than a FUN experience. If you play long enough, the computer may just mindcontrol your peons and start building a second race w/ their newly acquired builder. Be prepared for the unexpected!
QOB v1.8 "Queen of Blades" by Easy_ChatBe prepared for a psycho Zerg! This lightning-quick Ai features a random final attack loop that promises to keep you guessing at what's coming next. If you make it that far! Easy_Chat's Ai has been featured at Starcraft Dream.net since early 2007.
ZBath II by bajadulceZBath II is the final chapter in this fun little mod designed entirely for those wacky Fa$te$t maps but with a small twist. There are no vespene geysers to harvest from! Instead, you the player will receive 500gas per minute and will be rewarded thereafter with additional gas by means of a kills2gas currency cycle. The more you kill, the more gas you are awarded. The maximum being 5K gas/ minute.... which should be plenty for all you gas hogs! NOTE: This mod is ONLY playable on FMP maps and is exclusive to this type of play. So if you enjoy FMP, THIS IS YOUR MOD! Features all 3 races.
ZBathWar v1.1 by bajadulceThis robotic version of Zbath was created to be pitted against other computer opponents in our BWAIWar III contest. Be warned; this probably isn't something humans should be trying to conquer. No complaints please!
ZONS v3.3 Final by Iskatu_MeskA complete Ai featuring all 3 races by the veteran modder Iskatu_Mesk, who has tinkered with Ai scripts for as long as they have been around. Despite frustrations at not being able to overcome SC's internal hardcoded Ai issues, this mod has been tirelessly reworked and undergone numerous overhauls. The result is his final 3.3 version and simply described by it's creator as the "Best mod in the Universe!" So prepare yourself for the unexpected! If you're still hungry for more punishment, then look for the next incarnation of this in Armageddon Onslaught in our modding section.
October 07 2008, 12:21 AM BWAI Gold Final![]() Introducing BWAI Gold, our latest update for the BroodWarAI Project. The mod includes 2 versions that showcase our best Starcraft AI scripts over the project's history. Both utilize PyAI and it's special ability to perform external jump calls allowing the computer to randomly select from a database of scripts. More randomness = more replayability = more fun! Every game will be a different experience and there's something for every skill level. ![]() Racine's Rebels features our best insane AI's. The scripts vary in difficulty and no two will be alike. Be warned! Some games may be extremely difficult, especially for those new to the experience. The majority of players will have difficulty dealing with a single cpu opponent, and we truly mean the majority of players! If you're a nutcase or just a badass, give 1v2 a try. ![]() Entropy II is a non-cheating opponent which some may already be familiar with. The mod receives no extra money whatsoever and is intended for the casual Scraft gamer as well as newcomers. A 1v2 game however may just surprise you.
