Hotfixed the mod, RC9Update compatibility fix. Bots should now work as originally intended.
Disclaimer: This is not my mod, I do not take ownership of this mod. All credits go to the Spiterbot Team:

I am responsible for recovering lost files, versions and prototypes of their work. It was a challenge to dig up without dates and it took quite a bit of investigation, in the effort to locate these files, most of the websites I pulled the file content off of are next to impossible to find anymore, pretty much everything leads to deadends. This version is comprised of a blob of different resources I found scattered across the web and different archived pages.

I needed to hotfix this mod because when I initially uploaded it, I had installed the RC9 Update (VM01) wrong. In this hotfix I merged some of the internal files of VM01 to the March 29th VM and it should now be completely functional.
This mod is running on Version .50 of the Spiterbot, the Prototype is Release Candidate 9 which was the notorious version of Spiterbot that people really enjoyed just prior to the Official Version .51, and Version .52. Basically, RC10 would be version .51 which is also finally available on ModDB, but is not as challenging. The March 29th Update is the base VM.pk3 that was included in this rendition. The March 29th Update should be everything including RC1-8, if I am wrong feel free to correct me. March 29th was hard enough to find, finding the Release Candidate 9 was even worse. All links expired, mostly FTP..

A few recommendations:
New players - Should play 2Pizza on lower than level 100, and avoid Spite due to the accuracy and dodge skill
Veteran Duelers - Try any bot, give level 100 a shot if you want. It's probably going to require a bit of perseverance knowing it's basically an aimbot, but if you can play duel well enough it should still be a walk in the park.
Btw, I highly recommend only playing this mod on vanilla Quake 3 and to avoid sourceports as they have been known to cause bugs with various versions of Spiterbot. I'd also recommend playing at 1280x1024 or 1600x1024 resolution which the mod should come as by default. If you need to reload the config file, just type 'exec SpiterRC9.cfg' in your console and hit enter.
Use this update and discard the older RC9 folder in your game.
