Well, I'm assuming you mean "version," and if you want to play a game with bots, try Skulltag. Zdoom isn't really set up to use bots, as far as I know.

Okay, From where ZDoom.exe is at, Create a new folder called "zcajun", and put your "bots.cfg" in there. Then, load your game, then type in the consle "Addbot", and a random bot will be spawned.
The bots.cfg bots are very stupid. They remind me of playing like my sissy ;P

The bots.cfg file is no longer distributed with the newer ZDoom releases. (And probably for good reason, too) You can find the old bots.cfg in 1.22, extract it from there, and use it with .98. But there's a lot of bugs with the bots anyhow.
Make sure before you exit the level to type 'removebots' and summon them back in after you enter the new level. If you don't do that, your bots will become dolts that run in one direction or do nothing and you'll no longer be able to remove them without resetting your game.
