-Place the 3 .cfg files in Team Fortress 2’s tf/cfg directory.

-Launch Team Fortress 2.

-Load up the map with the command: map pass_brickyard

-Join a team and pick a class.

-Use the command :exec tvtune1.cfg
This sets up all the bot stuff.

-Use the command: exec tvtune2.cfg
This teleports one bot to red’s side so that the secret goal is open.

-Go to the center of the map and pick up the jack. Bring it to blue’s side where the secret goal is and launch it into the goal. Go back to spawn and go through the now open private door. Take the teleporter. Stand behind the tv and shoot the power outlet.

-Use the command: exec tvtune3.cfg
This teleports all the bot into their spots triggering the achievement before they attempt to kill eachother.

Done.

Troubleshooting
Can’t get the achievement because it says cheats are on?
  • The problem is likely because you already have cheats on going into this. Disable your autoconfig file or edit it to temporarily remove the part where it turns on cheats (remove “sv_cheats 1”). Revert changes when you’re 100% done.
The game can’t find the files? How do I make .cfg files?
  • There are 2 ways to fix this. When you save the files in notepad select “All Files (*.*)” and manually name the files [filename].cfg.
  • The second way is to enable showing file extensions in windows and then just rename the files [filename].txt to [filename].cfg. You’ll get a popup from windows asking if you’re sure. Yes.
It says both teams have to ready up
  • Use the command mp_tournament 0 to disable tournament mode. TF2’s a weird game and it remembers if the last server you were on had tournament mode on. It's best to start the game fresh and try this guide over joining servers and playing around before attempting this guide.
My problem isn't here
  • Most likely someone else has had your problem. Read the comments. If you can't find the solution in all the pages of comments then post a comment.

Weird request but sure. If you want to simply teleport a bot somewhere: go to the location you want to put the bot (by noclipping or spectating) and use the command getpos. This puts your coordinates and angle into the console, copy the values but not the extra text. Spawn in a bot and then use the command bot_teleport [botname] followed by the 6 sets of numbers. The first 3 are coordinates and the last 3 are the angle of the camera (pitch, yaw, roll). They can be set to 0 0 0 for simplicity and if you don't care where the bot is facing.

I would like to spawn a bot on powerhouse in the water, similar to this, where do i get the corrdinates, what is pitch, yaw, roll?

For me it also says that it can't make bots name, name2 etc., and it kicks all of them from the server. The same error Endżyn majster has.

EDIT: got this to work. Turns out, TF2 sometimes is a little wonky. Restarting the game made this guide work as intended for me.
