MetaMod:Source Install Troubles

puppychow · 04-23-2008, 04:25 AM

Greetings,

It's just not seeming to take. Can I zip someone my addons folder for review? Thinking I mucked up something somewhere..ty!

You're probably better off trying reinstalls than looking through every file to see if 1 letter is wrong.

http://metamod.org/metamod.html
Make sure to follow the entire installation and configuration instructions.

reinstalls? fuck, i had enough trouble with attempting a single install

Jester · 04-23-2008, 04:36 AM

I meant it as in you might have to do it more than once

You still only need to reinstall 1 thing, the metamod.

Which version are you running, 1.4.2 or 1.4.3 ?

A;so you need to know what OS your server is.

If your on 1.4.2 you need to edit your gameinfo.txt file.

If your on 1.4.3 you need to create a metamod.vdf file and place in your addons folder.

thanks

can you suggest what version i should be running just to confirm?

also, there seem to be mutiple files that need to go into the addons folder. the zip package for metamod contains subfolders - do i eliminate those and just dump the actual files in the root of addons?

Thanks,

pc

I'm willing to bet your running 1.4.3 just b/c it's the first one on the list on the downloads page. Idk which is better, definitely a zip question.

WRT install no, just copy over the addons folder to your server's FortressForever/ dir.

When all is done you should see:

Code:

FortressForever/addons
FortressForever/addons/metamod
FortressForever/addons/metamod/bin
FortressForever/addons/metamod/readme.txt
FortressForever/addons/metamod/metaplugins.ini
FortressForever/addons/metamod/bin/server_i486.so
FortressForever/addons/metamod/bin/server.dll

First of get and DL http://www.hlsw.net.

Then add me to your friends lists and will walk you threw this one step at a time.

Then we can set you up with everything you need.

Steam friends= brokenballs

I'm working 7 days a week 12 hrs a day right now I get home about 6:30 am Pacific time (gmt -

.

With MM 1.4.3 you don't have to modify your gameinfo.txt file it uses a metamod.vdf file which means when you update a game your gameinfo.txt gets over writen meta mod will still work.

puppychow · 04-24-2008, 05:15 PM

I'm awaiting my confirmation email from hlsw so i can use the damn thing..tried 2 emails and checked junk, aint happening...

You'll want SourceMod, it's much more flexible.
