In modern computer games, 'bots' -Intelligent realistic agents play a prominent role in success of a game in market. Typically, bots are modeled using finitestate machine and then programmed via simple conditional statements which are hard-coded in bots logic. Since these bots have become quite predictable to an experienced games player, she might lose her interest in game. We present a model of bots using BDI agents, which will show more human-like behavior, more believable and will provide
more » ... e realistic feel to the game. These bots will use the inputs from actual game players to specify her Beliefs, Desires, and Intentions while game playing. _________________________________________ 1 A Half-Life MOD' is a modification that someone has made to the single player or multiplayer version of the game Half-Life.
