Hello.
I'm programming a bot for
International Online Soccer mod (IOS) as a
metamod plugin, for IOS3.0 which run under
Steam. I'm using
Mingw and Dev-C++ for IDE.
So of course I need metamod.dll. From what I understand the official release of metamod (1.7) doesn't work with the latest engine update and you need to recompile the sources yourself, after patching HL SDK2.3 and Metamod sources.
I applied both patches and managed to compile metamod.
To avoid possible problems with IOS I run my tests with CounterStrike instead, since I assume it's better supported and I just want to get a working metamod first before adding my bot. But when I start a CS listen server I got
"Host_Error: Couldn't get DLL API from q4".. The official unpatched metamod.dll gives the same error, so I guess the compilation somehow failed somewhere...
So I would be gratefull if someone could:
1) Point a link where I could download a metamod.dll that is certified to run with the latest HL/steam.
or better:
2) Ideally if someone has managed to compile the patched metamod with mingw and it works fine, the sources or at least some concrete info on how he did it (makefile,dev-c++ project...). Since I guess I'll have problems for my bot dll plugin too this would be cool.
Right now I can compile and run metamod and my bot plugin for the non-steam hl for IOS2.0, but I would of course love to make it run with steam and IOS3.0. I can toy a bit with that but its not so cool to develop an obsolete bot.
Thanks!!
