Failed to load Dll

[Thomas123]

I download and installed YaPB recently. When I tried to start a server, it said:

Failed to load Dll. :'(

I checked that everything was fine. I had YaPB installed in

counter-strike\cstrike\addons and podbot.dll in /dlls

This is my liblist.
game "Counter-Strike"

Hi, try this line :) :

gamedll "addons\yapb\dlls\podbot.dll"

I tried it, but it did not work! I think I will change to other bos:(

the problem is the YaPB dll is successfully loaded, but the CS mp.dll can't be loaded.

have you tried using Metamod ?

@Thomas123

Here are some tips on loading the YaPB DLL correctly. As far as to your CounterStrike versions this should apply to CS 1.5 (WON which is now dead), and 1.6 Steam:

First off you should go get yourself Metamod 1.17.2 (supported version from http://www.metamod.org) or 1.17.2p10 (http://forums.unitedadmins.com/index.php?showtopic=39088-this is a stable shrinked version of 1.17.2.

This dll should follow this directory structure:

C:\Sierra\Counter Strike\cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls

also add this file plugins.ini inside this folder:

C:\Sierra\Counter Strike\cstrike\addons\metamod

inside of that plugins.ini add this line:

addons\YaPB\dlls\podbot.dll

last but not least go to your lbist.gam and open it with notepad and go to the line that says this:

gamedll "dlls\mp.dll"

change that line so it says this "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll"

close save it and start your LAN game and it should work just fine.

I did everything you mentioned. Now, I still cannot create a server.

Stean created a errorlog and said:

Error:Failed to load dialog file Resource/UI/ClassMenu.res

Function trace:
CGameUI::Start
CGameUI::Initialize
CBaseUI::Start

CFileSystem_Steam::Mount()
How can I resolve the problem???

I don't think that is a bot problem. try reinstalling CS.

Problem resolved. Thanks.:)
