BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

I think i have looked everywhere, and i hope i am putting this in the right place but can someone tell me how to install BSPEdit_mm it did not have a read me with the download on where to put stuff so any help would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.???:(

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

This example will be for installing on window and counter strike.

This may look like a lot of steps and be complicated but it isn't.
Really all you are doing is creating two new folders.
You place the metamod dll and the bspEdit dll into one folder.
You create one line text file called plugins.ini and place it into another folder
and you modify two lines in your counter strike liblist.gam file.

1) Go to metamod.org and download the latest Metamod.
You need this because BEPEdit_mm is a Metamod plugin.

2) Install Metamod.
I will refer to your cstrike directory.
For condition zero installs just replace "cstrike" with "czero" and "counter strike" with "condition zero" in the paths below.
Your cstrike directory should be found somewhere like:
\Program files\Valve\Steam\Steam\SteamApps\<your steam user name>\counter-strike\cstrike
Ok got it? When I say cstrike directory this is the directory I am talking about.

It will have a text file in it called
liblist.gam

Open it up in notepad or any text editor and look for this line
gamedll "dlls\mp.dll"

comment this line out by putting two // in front of it and add this line
gamedll "/addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll"

If you ever want to go back to a clean cs install not running Metamod and (also disabling all plugins you installed too)
just comment out the Metamod line and uncomment the original line.

For example to run Metamod and its plugins have this in your liblist.gam file.
//gamedll "dlls\mp.dll"
gamedll "/addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll"

To go back to plain cs not running Metamod have this in liblist.gam.
gamedll "dlls\mp.dll"
//gamedll "/addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll"

You don't have to uninstall any files to turn off Metamod.

3) Now create this folder structure by creating three folders (addons \ metamod \ dlls)in your cstrike directory.
\Program files\Valve\Steam\Steam\SteamApps\<your steam user name>\counter-strike\cstrike\addons
\Program files\Valve\Steam\Steam\SteamApps\<your steam user name>\counter-strike\cstrike\addons\metamod
\Program files\Valve\Steam\Steam\SteamApps\<your steam user name>\counter-strike\cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls

4) Put the metamod.dll file you downloaded into:
\Program files\Valve\Steam\Steam\SteamApps\<your steam user name>\counter-strike\cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls

5) Put the BSPEdit_mm.dll file into this directory also.
\Program files\Valve\Steam\Steam\SteamApps\<your steam user name>\counter-strike\cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls


and put a text file in the metamod directory that has this line.
win32 addons/metamod/dlls/BSPEdit_mm.dll

Call this file plugins.ini

When you are done you should have this:
\Program files\Valve\Steam\Steam\SteamApps\<your steam user name>\counter-strike\cstrike\addons\metamod\plugins.ini
\Program files\Valve\Steam\Steam\SteamApps\<your steam user name>\counter-strike\cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll
\Program files\Valve\Steam\Steam\SteamApps\<your steam user name>\counter-strike\cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls\BSPEdit_mm.dll


That is it.
Start a LAN game and go to the console and type
meta list
If everything was done correctly you should get a listing from Metamod of all plugins running.
BSPEdit_mm shoud be in the list.

Good luck!

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

god i dumb ok i got all the first part but the BSPEdit_mm has these files
vcproj, dsw, rc, dsp, where do i need to put them? (those are the extensions)
thanks again for your help



ok 10 min later it working! do i need to even mess with these files b/c it seems i don't need them. Thanks again.

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

Those are the source code files you would use if you were going to do some programming and enhance BSPEdit_mm. You dont' need them. All you need is the one file BSPEdit_mm, as you have found out...

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

hey, trying to get this and forceteams working, did it just like that on windows listen serv and still getting badf load. Any ideas. I got the dll in metamod/dlls and I even copy and pasted the line off this forum so I know its in there right. Should it go above podbot or hookmod or amxx, is there any order it should be above these plugins, or has steam just broken more good plugins? pm'd PMB but havent heard back yet. Its for CS 1.6 windows.

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

If you are getting badf load then metamod is installed ok, so...

Do you get badf load on all plugins or just BSPEdit?
Make sure the dll is in the metamod/dlls folder and you have a line in plugins.ini EXACTLY like this:

win32 addons/metamod/dlls/BSPEdit_mm.dll

AND you would NEVER ever run BSPEdit with ANY other plugin.
You use it ALONE, with NO other plugins running, to edit a map.
Once you have your maps edited, disable BSPEdit by putting // in frount of the line in plugins.ini, like this...

//win32 addons/metamod/dlls/BSPEdit_mm.dll

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

not just bsp, I'm trying to get forceteams working, too. Hookmod, podbot, and statsme all work. Here's my line for forceteams addons/metamod/dlls/forceteams_mm.dll and I have bspedit written like u posted

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

here's what my ini looks like. cant get monster to load either.

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

There is really no way I can debug this for you.
You are goign to have to check everything.

1) you do know the file is plugins.ini NOT plugins.txt right?
2) You have paths in your plugins file so you know you have to have those paths setup correctly where your dll files are.
3) All I can say is go here and read all of this on how to install and test Metamod.

http://wiki.bots-united.com/index.php/Main_Page

Scrool down to the Metamod section.
Good luck!

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

ya, I had to paste it in a text file because for some reason I couldnt upload the ini. Metamod works fine, just cant get certain plugins working.

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

got it working, just got a problem with the forceteams plugin, when I turn it on, real people get stuck in spectator and bots dont do anything when I put in command.

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

Hi,
I try to download the bspedit_mm file but all I get is a zip-file containing some source files and an bspedit.exe file.
No bspedit_mm.dll file to be found :(

What have i missed? What am I doing wrong?

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

You would never run BSPEdit_mm on you server o rwith any other plugins.
It is mean tto be used as the only plugin and only use dto edit a map and then that is it, turn it off.


"I try to download the bspedit_mm file but all I get is a zip-file containing some source files and an bspedit.exe"

Well this is weird. We are getting BSPEdit the stand alone program in the dl instead of the BSPEdit_mm project. Who changed what in the file downloads?

I don't have that zip file anymore. Can some one send me the zip file they downloaded and I will replace what is on the server or can some admin fix this?

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

Thanks for the answer, thought I was doing something wrong :p

I downloaded the standalone program and actually figured out how it was working, very nice program as well :D

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

Hmm, not able to edit posts? Ooh well, nevermind I'll doublepost then :P
Austin, I have not had the time to test it but I found another plugin in the filbase, maybe it's that one?

http://filebase.bots-united.com/index.php?action=file&id=71
(Mapedit plugin)

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

Nope, that is the one from PM.
I don't think he has kept up dev. on it.

I just re-upload BSPEdit_mm.
Look for BSPEdit_mmV2.8 under the Metamod section.

Let me know how it works.
I am crashing now on CZ when I have just metamod installed (no plugins running.)
Anyone else have this problem?

BSPEdit_mm how to install SDK's ?
 

i have downloaded your archive to use it with non cs1.6 mods and maps , so it does load because : urban.mdl no precached . i try to compile it to adjust the player problem and create a new menu but it does not happen well .
to preent my problem in order :
+ i open the msvc6 enterprise , i open the source control project but i do not know the user , his password . if i bypass i have a message box : unable to connect to source .../CS/DEV/MMTOOLS/MAL/MAPHACK
it opens the workspace
+ the mapHack_mm.cpp have
#include "HLUtils.h"
that is not included , so i find 3 files with http://www.webcrawler.com/ and i test with one because it was 2 / 3 files ;] , i upload it to let austin or friend's of him tell if it is the good
+ from metamod i have downloaded : metamod-1.19-win.src.zip and hl_sdk_v23.exe , i also have zhlt sdk : zhlt33-src.rar and zhlt34f-src.zip .
where do i must install the right files of them ?

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

to correct my previous post
so it does not load because : urban.mdl no precached .....
to present my problem in order :

i also find the p3 update file for hlsdk and hlsdk-2.3-p3.zip at another metamod location of their site .

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

You need to have the hl sdk and the zoner's hl tools sdk installed to build this.

I have been thinking about re-writing this so you don't need the zoner's tools. The parts I use to edit the bsp file are not very well written any ways.

Eamil me and I will send you a zip file with everything setup to build.
When you unzip the file I send be sure to tell winzip to use the folder names.

This way you will get the correct directory structure you need to build it.
If you unzip to c:\ everythign wil lbe in
c:\cs\Dev......


Here is my eamil. Replace the <at> with @ to get the correct address, obviously

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

Why don't you try adding those models to your existing directory structure to try to get it to run?

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

i added the urban , gsg9 , guerilla and terror folders from cs1.6 in the mod player folder . it did not work . i also tried to precache model with stripper2_mm.dll and stripper2.cfg :
PRECACHE_MODEL(models/player/urban/urban.mdl)
PRECACHE_MODEL(models/player/terror/terror.mdl)
PRECACHE_MODEL(models/player/gsg9/gsg9.mdl)
PRECACHE_MODEL(models/player/guerilla/guerilla.mdl)
despite the fact i read it wants it in models folder .
the mod i use , only precache player.mdl , if i can use BSPEdit_mm like it is , i would have to do a search and replace on the ent file of map : that is quite easy .
ps : i send you an email named : BSPEdit_mm source file for sixcentgeorge , but i have no response by now , i shall wait .

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

I've recently tried to use the plugin and it crashes listen server (windows, metamod 1.19). Any ideas?

EDIT: Browsing my old files, I've found a bspedit_mm v1.4 that's working fine.

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

Hey commonbullet!
Does it crash on every map or just some maps?

If it crashes on every map remember this was written for CZ not CS so you
have to make sure the maps are in the

condition zero/czero/maps
folder NOT
condition zero/cstrike/maps

cz will find the maps in either folder but for BSPEdit_mm to edit them they have to be in the czero/maps folder. Just copy the bsp file into this folder.

I should really be checking to see if the map exists and give a warning instead of crashing ;-)

If you have the maps in the czero/maps folder and still -some- maps crash I am sorry this is how it works!

I wrote this plugin a looooonnngg time ago and was just learning and used source code examples that has fixed memory allocation sizes for the entities.
Maps with a large amount of entities will crash it.

(If this is your problem email me and I will do a special build for you...)

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

Hi Austin,

That was the problem - I use to place custom maps in cstrike/maps folder instead of czero/maps :o. It's working great now.

Thank you.

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

@ Austin - Maybe You can use just relative path or detect what is the mod You are running it from to get it working on both - cstrike and czero...

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

KWo,
I am no longer playing cz, only css now.
So I am not doing any further cz/cs development.

;-(

The problem is the HL engine finds the maps in either dir. so we would have to check both paths.
Just a few extra lines of code.

The source code is released with the plugin if any body wants to work on it.
It is a great plug for quickly adding more spawns fast and easy and a few other items to you maps.

Re: BSPEdit_mm how to install?
 

helo. i would like to know if this plugin still working under metamod 1.9

i want to change some maps we have in the server to 32 players. i was reading carefully the instructions how to install like you said in your guide here.

the problem is, the BSPEdit_mmV2.8 continue a ddl file name: (mapHack_mm.dll) when i start listen server and metamod try to reload it, the game just crash.

i checked that metamod is loaded by this command: meta list and its loaded and it says one plugin is found but failed to load,

the reason i belive its not loaded because the name should be:
win32 addons\metamod\dlls\mapHack_mm.dll and not as you mentioned it in your guide. (inside plugins.ini)

as fast the metamod try to load the plugin the game crash and i relly need to learn whats wrong.

/regards
