As a Happy New Year to all those people who continue to download and use Kaiou, I decided to upload a quick patch. This patch addresses a few minor bugs and adds a few new boost types for those GMs who just want to give something different to players. Added are: SSJ Legendary (what level of SSJ Brolli was in the movies), SSJ 4, Mystic (what Gohan achieved in the Buu arc of Z), and Consume (based on Cell’s transformations, only temporary instead of permanent). Please remember that you can always add multiple levels for Mystic and Consume like you would with Anger, Transform and the regular Boost powerups.  Click here and download it today!

The evolution of Kaiou continues with an unexpected patch, 7.2b. This patch completely revamps the gun/ammo system making it more realistic with clips and reloading. It also adds the internal courage system (that can be turned/off by bot owners and Kaiou-level players) that will affect a character’s ability to attack. It also adds the taunt command that will cause one of three things to happen, as well as a few bug fixes that were found after 7.2’s release.

Believe it or not, Kaiou has been updated to version 7.2. WHAT’S NEW? Lots of stuff! Kaiou 7.2 adds a new CAPSULE feature to the bot! Now winners of battles may have a random chance of being rewarded with a capsule that will unlock different things. There’s also a command to add multiple technique descriptions for those who want to spice up their characters a little bit, a new weapon type (“claw”), some minor tweaking to help balance things out and, as always, various bug fixes. Overall, this may be one of the stronger versions of the bot and I feel it’s finally approaching what it should have always been.

The Kaiou 7.1c Patch fixes several few bugs that were found in the rushed 7.1b patch (and several that have been in the system for ages) in addition to adding a few goodies: a command to let monsters fly, a new tech type (“ranged”), Elemental Immunities/Weaknesses/Strengths, and other things. Be sure to download and patch your Kaiou and read the patch information for more details. NOTE: This version also replaces the old Kaiou “equipment.lst” “items.lst” and “accessories.lst” with updated versions. If you have added your own equipment, accessories, or items, be sure to copy your version out before patching so that you don’t lose your work.

As always, keep reading for the complete changelog.

In celebration of the release of Kaiou 7.0 I thought I would go ahead and put up links to all of the older versions of Kaiou.  Note that none of these will be compatible with the new version, so please don’t mix and match files.  Continue reading for a list of links.

A long time ago, in an IRC channel far far away there used to be a #DBZRPG.  Not my #DBZRPG, but one of the FIRST #DBZRPG to ever hit IRC.  In it was a man who went by the nick Gohan_san.  He made the very first IRC Battle Bot named “Kaio” and all was good. 

Kaio was a neat bot that handled stats and had a DBZ-element to it to make the RPG run more like the show.  Inspired by this, I decided to start my own personal project to mimic and, one day, surpass “Kaio.”  

And so the Kaiou Battle Bot project was born.  It ran from 1999 to 2003 successfully with many versions, many improvements, and many new things.  In 2003 I thought that it would retire forever when I decided to start a new bot, Dai O-Rudofasshon Kaiou-Shin, better known as DORKS.   Unfortunately, it was never finished.  But lo-and behold, DORKS did not need to be finished as I started working on Kaiou again.
