Please paste your liblist.gam here.

// Valve Game Info file
// gamedll "dlls\hl.dll"
//  These are key/value pairs.  Certain mods will use different settings.
//

Remove the ";" before win32 in plugins.ini and delete config.ini.

Ok, I have found reason for "DLL version is 140, engine version is 140" bug. Metamod isn't finding your gamedll. Make sure that 'valve\dlls\hl.dll' exists. If it doesn't, please start server with commandline options '+log on +localinfo mm_debug 10'. This way we see what goes wrong with metamod.

[person135]

first of all, have that in where? plugins.ini? liblist.gam? config.ini?

also, I can't start a server at all because of that.

can you just tell me what to do from the beginning. Do it as if i'm a noob XD

like tell me which file to open and what to edit and delete and all


btw@STORM: I had it removed and it didn't work, so I just added it so I could play regular HL

Ok. Are you trying to start dedicated server or installing metamod on listenserver?

If you are starting dedicated server through steam, follow as (mm installed):
1. Open Steam game list.
2. Select Dedicated Server and click right button and select Properties from list.
3. Open 'Set launch options...'
4. Write '+log on +localinfo mm_debug 10' to edit area (without ').
5. Close properties windows and start server.

If you are running server from within game (listenserver), follow as (mm installed):
1. Open Steam game list.
2. Select Half-Life and click right button and select Properties from list.
3. Open 'Set launch options...'
4. Write '+log on +localinfo mm_debug 10' to edit area (without ').
5. Close properties windows and start server.

Then post results here.

(If you are running dedicated server without steam add '+log on +localinfo mm_debug 10' on startup line or in shortcut with hlds.exe)

If you check your Half-Life/valve/dlls-directory and it's empty or doesn't exists, copy following file there: http://koti.mbnet.fi/axh/jk_botti/hl.dll
So you will have Half-Life/valve/dlls/hl.dll

If you get server running with copying this file in, go remove those launch options (will slowdown server).

the thing is I can't start the server! the server wont start! I get that error I posted!

[ghost of evilspy]

I know you are getting this error. "DLL version is 140, engine version is 140"


That's why I'm giving these instructions. This these instructions server will generate ALOT more meaningful text output for me to sort out this problem.

Did you try adding "+log on +localinfo mm_debug 10"? How did output change on server error?

[person135]

the same happened! there was the same output when I tried to start the server. I tried to start the server, I got that error even before the server started.

If you are using Steam delete the Dedicated Server folder and Start it again from tools, else delete liblist.gam and run hldsupdatetool.exe to redownload the stuff.
