    You need to create an AI mesh thingo for the level. Problem is, EA haven't released any tools for this. So sadly, singleplayer support on maps isn't possible.

      And from reading another post, i think i may correct myself and say...It may just be possible. I've not heard of it bein done before, so excuse my rush to get in and say it's not. So if it is, go for it.
      As i said, i wasn't aware that it had been done before.

            There are other ways of doing such things, for example, i've got a script written in python which creates autobalancing for sides based on how many tickets are left. You can do that kinda thing. So, yeah, or changing your .ai files to include 64 players perhaps. Either way, it's an improvement if you're looking for something else.

              Sounds like what you want to do is just play co-op. THAT you can do. You just need to start an SP game and have the other person join by ip. You can increase the number of bots by editing aidefault.ai and change the team ratio by using sv.teamratiopercent in the console. What you can't do easily is add bot support to maps that lack it (like Mashtuur/Kubra/Wake). That's what [LoF]Phoenix was talking about.

                  Both on the same LAN or over the 'net? Did they try 'join local' or 'join internet'?
