I can help you... but first can you help me by telling me why you're posting this thread exactly here?

*EDIT*
AFAIK, you don't need botaim with PB mm at all...

Exactly since some release (I don't remember the number) - You don't need to use botaim, becuase it is already included in bot code. You need to take the latest build (instead of some official release like R2.1). Read some stickies , then You will know where You can find it.

Ok, since there's been no reply from moboerotica today, I'm speeding up things a little and moving the thread to where it belongs.

mobo, I know you were trying to use Podbot mm when this plugin problem occurred to you - nonetheless, next time please bear in mind that in the end, you are having problems configuring metamod and metamod plugins... and this doesn't go into the general PODBot forum. Remember that the more metamod-experienced people see your thread, the higher are the chances someone will know your problem and help you out. And you're just more likely to find metamod experts in the metamod forum than here, ok?

Now back to topic:

I presume that you have metamod itself and PODBot mm running already and want to know how to add other plugins, right?

If this is the case, here's what you need to do:
1) If you want to add a plugin, you DON'T need to recompile metamod!
2) Install/Unzip the plugin into a metamod sub-directory. Let's say you d/l a plugin called "example". Unzip it into cstrike/addons/metamod/example.
3) Now if you want to get this plugin to be loaded, you must find its dll. It will be called "example_mm.dll" usually, and you will find it in the "example" directory. If it's not there, it might hide in a sub-directory like "cstrike/addons/metamod/example/dll/" or something.
4) Once you know where the dll is, go to your metamod directory (cstrike/addons/metamod) and open the file "plugins.ini" with Notepad.
5) Enter the path to the dll, starting in the cstrike directory - like this:
win32 addons\metamod\example\example_mm.dll (for a windows PC)
or this:
linux addons\metamod\example\example_mm.i386.so (for Linux)
Don't overwrite existing lines.
6) Save your plugins.ini, fire up CS, start a game, open the console and enter "meta list". This will bring up a list of all plugins metamod has loaded. Does your new plugin appear? Fine, then it should work. If not, you screwed up somewhere...

NOTE 1: Add plugins one by one, never 5 at a time! If you get problems, you will immediately know which plugins caused them.

NOTE 2: If you have a plugin that seems to cause bugs with PODBot mm, try loading that plugin before the bot plugin. You can do that by opening metamod's plugins.ini and putting the lines in the order in which you want to load the plugins. The topmost line in plugins.ini will be executed first, the bottom line last.

Hope this has been a tiny bit of help...

Ok first off all sorry about my posting i knew from the first place
that moderator will move my forums hehe but i did that because
i was so puzzled by doing this plugins add with compiling things
because i'm a noob in that but i made my own waypoints and work
hard making some nice maps, i really love counter-strike it's been
apart of my life. Maybe might sound funny or even stupid but real
cs lovers do knows that . Well thanks guys but one thing still
confusing me that Kwo said Podbot 2.6 mm doesn't need botaim
well ok but i think their aiming it's not as great as Realbot does
i'm not trying to seize how good between them because everything
has their own + n - so that's ok i played with Pod 2.6 mm they really
kick ass,they do! better but aiming still a bit lack sorry i mean maybe
future bot coders can mix things better so the next Pod generation will
have great combination on great Pod nav and good aim as Realbot does.
About Kwo, i downloaded the beta P21 and why did u say better find others
is there any newest version?? Thanks

[KWo]

Yeah, there IS a newer version.

First two topics (sticked) in that subforum have the newest build (R2B43 or R2B44 - exactly this one is the newest).

And in code of it already botaim exists - so try one of these versions and let us know if pod aiming is OK for You.
