Hi! can anyone help me?
 

Hi, could anyone please help me install Podbots or joebot (or even both) on my pc with metamod and headshot mod. I have tried to install these but my game always crashes when i try to start. My pc runs on AMD64 and Windows XP home, so i tried using metamod_amd64.so and metamod.dll but that doesnt work either. so please anyone help me install it?

- any reply would be appreciated :]

JoeBOT and podbot mm doesn't want to work together , so until Aspirin will not find free time to look at it - You may forget to get them together to work.

About metamod and podbot installation procedure - look at this topic - it should help You a bit.

Then - if You will done everything like in that topic - get the linux AMD64 build of PODBOT mm R2B46c posted here:

[EDIT]
About this podbot mm and JoeBOT problem - maybe it's even not the problem in JoeBOT, but without help of Aspirin we can't solve it.

>You may forget to get them together to work.

... or you run a debug version and see where it crashes.

anyway, alone they should work. now it'd be interesting if it still crashes when loading only joebot, or only podbot, and if it doesnt crash, that 'meta list' command it was I guess, to know if the plugin even runs properly.

There might also be some information when crashing, e.g. where it crashed. might be hl.exe, joebot_mm.dll, podbot_mm.dll, or whatever other place.

The info already has been posted...

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

I know, I was referring to the startpost of this thread, KWo. he said it crashed with "Podbots or joebot (or even both)". Therefore it'd be new information if Kai' would take a look at this.

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

thanks guys i'll post once i've done those things :) appreciated.

[edit]
- right i changed the dll in liblist.gam to gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod_amd64.so" and get this message when i try to start a game with PODbot, also i downloaded "PODbot mm R2B46c x86-64 (AMD64) Binary" But iam not too sure what to do with those files :s ^_^ help.

message when using metamod_amd64.so :
"Host_Error: Couldn't get DLL API from c:\Valve\Steam\steamapps\bo0_kai\counter-strike\cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls\metamod_amd64.s o"

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

Look again what I wrote that topic about metamod

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

ah didnt realise it :S sorry ^_^ cause iam running on windows ^_^

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

Now I see the mistake - since you are using Win Xp, AMD64 linux podbot mm will not work for You because it's only for linux. Also for metamod.

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

does that mean no bots for me? :(

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

No - It means You need to follow again that topic I've showed You but only the part for Windows (skip all info I wrote there for linux).
You need to install "normal" metamod.dll and get Podbot mm fullpack R2B46c from filebase, as it's mentioned in that topic.

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

right done that but game crashes when i try to start one :s i get a error log:

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


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

Host_Init

^_^

- thanks for bearing with me ^_^

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

Show us Your plugins.ini file from metamod directory. Check the version of Your metmod.dll (click right button of mouse and look at the version number of the file metamod.dlll You are using).

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

ok here goes: this is all in my plugins.ini
win32 addons/podbot/podbot_mm.dll

metamod version : 1.17.4.0

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

You are trying to start the game CS1.6 Steam, right? Are You sure Your Steam is correctly installed (I hope You didn't try to install any linux version or something). You told something about headshot mod (but I guess You want to install it later - I didn't see the call for it - it's OK).
Does Your CS start without metamod (I mean with a call in liblist.gam for standard mp.dll file)?

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

yeah i have CS1.6 etc. correctly installed, this happened before witht he error log so i've reinstalled CS/Steam a few times before hand. i deleted headshot mod.dll cause i figured if i just get metamod working first then i can go from there. so i guess my steam is buggered :@ :[ although earlier today my friend installed PODbot +metamod +headshot mod with no problems, he even made me a ZIP to extract into my Cstrike, his works fine :/ i think it may be do with my PC being AMD64 i dunno. any views?

[edit]
my cs works fine without metamod, plus joebot (I have joebot without metamod, that works fine)
[/edit]

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

Do You have any file in ..\cstrike called autoexec.cfg ? If so - post also its contents here.
Show us also Your CS launch options (fire-up Steam, Click "Play games", then right button mouse click on "Counter-Strike" and then - at the window You will see - in the middle of it - there is a button "Launch option" - click it and show us the contents of it.
Make sure in the liblis.gam now You have the call for metamod like this

gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll"
and without gamedll "dlls\mp.dll"
and You really have the file metamod.dll in ...cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls directory.

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

i have no autoexec.cfg
and in my liblist.gam:

"game "Counter-Strike"
url_info "www.counter-strike.net"
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 "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll"
trainmap "tr_1""

also i have no launch options

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

The first line You have in liblist gam - it's a typo only or You really have a quote (") at beginning of the line
"game "Counter-Strike"
(I mean the quote before 'game')

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

quote was deliberate. ^_^ - i honestly dont see what could be wrong :(

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

Make sure Your plugins.ini file (in metamod directory) isn't really plugins.ini.txt (but txt as hidden more known for WIndows extension - make sure You have under Windows unmarked option "Hide extensions for more known file types".
Try laso without podbot_mm (with empty plugins.ini file) - I would know if the game would whole start with metamod for You.

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

Without plugins.ini CS crashes and this is in error log again:

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


Function trace:
CGameUI::Start
CGameUI::Initialize
CBaseUI::Start
CBaseUI::Initialize
Host_Init
CFileSystem_Steam::Mount()

Also, plugins.ini is not plugins.ini.txt :(

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

delete your liblist.gam
goto your play game list and right click on Counter-Strike and goto properties
click on Launch Options
and put try this and see if it can load metamod without any plugins.

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

:( that doesnt work either :( game still crashes :S

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

At this point I'd suggest to reinstall Steam correctly because there must be something very wrong with your setup.

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
 

going to do that right now.

Re: Hi! can anyone help me?
