HELP: How to install mm and podbot mm

[bigrockshow]

ok i downloaded and installed the "podbot_full_V3_B18c" file together with AMX metamod.

Following the instructions i start my game and type meta list and i get this :

Welcome to Counter-Strike
] meta list
Currently loaded plugins:
description stat pend file vers src load unlod
[ 1] AMX Mod X RUN - amxmodx_mm.dll v1.8.0.3 ini Start ANY
[ 2] Fun RUN - fun_amxx.dll v1.8.0.3 pl1 ANY ANY
[ 3] CStrike RUN - cstrike_amxx.dll v1.8.0.3 pl1 ANY ANY
[ 4] CSX RUN - csx_amxx.dll v1.8.0.3 pl1 ANY ANY
4 plugins,


this should mean the meta mod is installed properly right? i also put the podbot folder in the cstrike folder. now i tried PB_addbot,add_bot commands and its not working..

help please?

[KWo]

podbot folder has to be in cstrike\addons folder (like metamod and amxx).
The correct command to add a bot is:
pb add
(with optional parameters - more info in docs).

I have done everything you guys said to do but still wont work.
When i type in console: pb addbot it says pb is unknown command.

What should i do?

[KWo]

Try to use:
pb add
instead pb addbot. Next time please read the docs before asking the questions.

[Elias]

It still tells me that pb is an unknown command.
What should i do?

[Elias]

NVm..i restarted my server and saw that bots are playing. But when i still try that pb add it still does not work says unknown command.

[KWo]

If You are using:
rcon pb add
try to use just
pb add
(or vice versa - one of them should work).

[Elias]

Where is the file where i can set my rcon password because it says wrong rcon password

[KWo]

It's server.cfg
Add this line at the end of it:
rcon_password "your_password"
Then You need - after connecting from Your client's PC - write in the client's console the same line (to get access rights from the server), then Your rcon command should be working. Read also podbot.cfg file about using podbot menu on dedicated server and that topic related to it. Then You will not need to manually type any command to add/kick a bot.

Ok I'm having an issue here. I'm thinking its the plugins.ini section but I ready through your guide and I cant find the problem.

I downloaded the adminmod and then extracted the podbot. in my addins I have 3 directories. One is the adminmod, one is podbot, one is metamod.

In the podbot directory has the 3 core files needed

in the medtamod I have the plugins.ini and the dll directory which includes the metamod.dll


Win32 addons/adminmod/dlls/admin_MM.dll
win32 addons/podbot/podbot_mm.dll

is what I have in my plugins.ini in the metadata folder.

The problem is this. When I have just the first line with the admin_mm.dll and not the podbot one the file works and I can do the 'meta list' in the console. and it comes up. However when I add the podbot line the game crashes while its trying to load plugins.ini.

so its obviously the plugin.ini but its in the right directory and it looks correct. I'm at a loss.

EDIT: I just fixed the win32 in the plugins to be Win32 and copied the Case. I would have cried both happy and felt stupid if it was the reason it not working but turns out it still crashes.
