A little Help Please.
 

I have the lastest update for hlds.exe (steam cs 1.6)

My liblist.gam looks like this.

gamedll "mean/mean_cs16.dll"

What do I add to my shortcut? I did get the bots to load BUT it was just podbot not meanbot.

Some of the text that I have read tells me to place the podbot directory inside the addons directory? Like so... addons\podbot\podbot_mm.dll

Some other text tell to to place podbot in the cstrike directory. (this is where its always been)

Any help you could provide you will have my "Thanks". I've been reading everything I could get.

I have the lastest metamod and my admin_mod from last year.

If you could steer me in the right direction!

Thank you,

[KAC]Target_Pratice

BTW: I've noticed the meanbot guys have moved over to united.com. I hope that all of you are well. Peace!

The new metamod podbot goes in the metamod addons folder as stated in the documentation. You can fully remove the old podbot.

To see if mEAn is loaded, type m_version at the console. If it's loaded the version info will be displayed.

Thats what im confused about i have installed PMB's podbot and it works well, but how can I make meanmod work with it. I have heard that if you insert this in ur autoexec it will work:

log on
localinfo mm_gamedll mean/mean_cs16.dll
localinfo mbotmod podbot_mm

But it didnt work I have been trying to get meanmod work with PMB's podbot for a long time, i just dont know how?

Re: A little Help Please.
 

What you have is correct, except you have to tell mEAn to load metamod, change this line

localinfo mgamedll "addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll"

(assuming metamod is installed in the usual folder as shown)

Re: A little Help Please.
 

ok i tried that but no luck! can you plese tell me step by step wht to do. Either in my liblist or in my command line of cs 1.6 shortcut. Currently I have started Metamod in my liblist and the bot works but it never loads mean.

Re: A little Help Please.
 

My files:

Autoexec:

fullserverinfo
log on
maxplayers 10
localinfo mm_gamedll mean/mean_cs16.dll
localinfo mbotmod podbot_mm

Liblist:

game "Counter-Strike"
url_info "dmzepsilon.ca"
url_dl ""
version "1.6"
size "184000000"
svonly "0"
secure "1"
type "multiplayer_only"
cldll "1"
hlversion "1111"
nomodels "1"
nohimodel "1"
mpentity "info_player_start"
gamedll "dlls\mp.dll"
gamedll "addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll"
trainmap "tr_1"

This way should work. The only problem is that the bots don't retaliate when shot at. If I try to have mEAn load metamod, bots do not load. Hope this helps.

Re: A little Help Please.
 

Technically you should have mEAn loaded from liblist and then have mEAn load metamod, otherwise not all the features will work.

Re: A little Help Please.
 

heres how i did it-

in liblist.gam:
...
gamedll "addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll"
...

in addons/metamod/plugins.ini:

win32 addons/podbot/podbot_mm.dll

and in my startup command line :

...
+localinfo mm_gamedll mean/mean_cs15.dll +localinfo mbotmod podbot_mm
...

works for me.

Re: A little Help Please.
 

Basically I have what Rob stated. I hear what you are saying but to run mEAn from liblist just does not work for me. mEAn loads and all the plugins load but bots do not join. If I try to pb addbot says that there are no waypoints. If I run through autoexec no prob. Just no added features.

Re: A little Help Please.
 

oK I TRIED both methods, rob's way and SGT_pAIn's way, didnt work, is it because im using cs 1.6, it doesnt even seem to load it. I tried m_version but it says its a wrong command what should i do?

Re: A little Help Please.
 

mEAn works with both CS 1.5 and CS 1.6 provided you use the correct dll (the file name tells you which if for 1.5 and 1.6).

If you are having problems getting mEAn to work with metamod, I suggest you try this procedure:

Step 1 Get metamod to work correctly with your favorite bot, but without mEAn. You should learn how to load up both a non metamod bot, and a metabot plugin bot.

Step 2 Get mEAn to work correctly with your favorite bot, but without metamod. You'll have to install a non-metamod bot of course, but it is important to get a bot installed so you can learn how it all works.

Step 3 After step 2 is completed (mEAn + Bot, no metamod), configure your system to make mEAn load up metamod instead of the bot (metamod without any plugins). You can check to see if metamod is loaded by typing "meta" in the console. If nothing happens it did not load.

Step 4 After step 3 is successfull, configure metamod to load up your favorite bot. You have two options which you have already learned how to do from step 1, a) have metamod load a non-metamod bot, or b) have it load a metamod plugin bot.

Re: A little Help Please.
 

I understand all of that and have just 1 question how do i configure my system to make mEAn load up metamod? I have loaded metamod easily but how do i know if metamod is loaded through mEAn? and not by itself?

Re: A little Help Please.
 

i think i have tried this and failed as well.

in order to make mean load metamod, mean must be loaded first.

you can do this in liblist.gam

gamedll should point to mean_csXX.dll

then, in autoexec or command line you need to tell mean to load a .dll

m_gamedll should point to metamod.dll

pretty sure it doesnt work tho

Re: A little Help Please.
 

Second that Rob. Ammar, what cvars are you using in the server.cfg for mEAn?

Re: A little Help Please.
 

If it does not work for you, then we should figure out why. I think you are using CS 1.5, perhaps that is the problem?

Re: A little Help Please.
 

Ok now i know what the problem is. I think ive been playing long enough to know that its cs 1.6. Ok so i put gamedll "mean\mean_cs16.dll" in the liblist and put mm_gamedll mean/mean_cs16.dll in my autoexec. The game loaded mean, but metamod did not load, therefore mean being unable to apply the podfixes. I tried putting -dll addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll in my target command line, but this time the game loaded metamod, but did not load mEAn mod. So the problem is that whenever or however i load metamod, it seems to load metamod first, before loading mEAn, therefore mEAn does not load.
1 problem is clearly shown that my autoexec does not seem to take any affect on the game. Whats wrong? If i can get my autoexec.cfg to work, then im good to go, but how?

Re: A little Help Please.
 

if you put :
and
where does metamod get loaded?

try changing the autoexec to :
