EPB still not loading.

[woot woot]

Hi guys,
I've installed epb correctly into my ded. server\cstrike directory. I also have Metamod and AMX(X) installed as well, so I was hoping that when epb loads, it would load metamod since it is a metamod plugin. But nothing happens. Epb doesn't even load when my server starts, and in turn does not load my other plugins. There is nothing wrong with AMX(X) and Metamod coz they work fine without epb installed. I've searched through the whole forum, did that +localinfo thing, but to no avail.

Here is my liblist.gam:

game "Counter-Strike"
url_info "www.counter-strike.net"
url_dl ""
version "1.6"
size "184000000"
svonly "0"
secure "1"
type "multiplayer_only"
cldll "1" 
hlversion "1111"
nomodels "1"
nohimodel "1"
mpentity "multiplayer_only"
trainmap "tr_1"
gamedll "EPODbot\EPB.dll"

I can install other bots fine but I can't seem to install epb and I know I did everything right. Also, I've tried loading metamod first and added epb in plugins.ini. That works: all plugins are in. But then epb doesn't work even though it says it does. None of the commands work, like the menus and such.

Help is appreciated. Thank you.

Download EPBv5 and try again.

It is the latest version of EPBv5. And it still won't work.

EPB now is a real metamod plugin(like AMX). Just configurate your plugins.ini to load EPB.dll and all will be OK.

Ok, I reinstalled AMX(X) and then reinstalled EPB again. I already did try that by putting it in the plugins.ini. It works like I said.. except the menus don't work. I press p and it doesn't show. I've already added titles.txt and still to no avail.

When it did work, not the menus, my server was automatically filled with the bots and then it crashed my server. It went over the maximum of 16 bots as I configured, when it did, it crashed it. So, I turned off auto fillserver. When I try to access the menus, it says unknown command .. it's already binded and epb is loaded. I tried going through the console but nothing worked.

Don't reinstall AMX and metamod. The problem is not there. Maybe you are not installed EPB in to the correct dir?
Let me explain. So run the EPBv5 installer and after that select your counter-strike dir like this exsample here:
X:\Games\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\your_account\counte r-strike\
Where X:\ is the your HDD drive.
Now just select install and start the server. The bots must be OK.

Ya, it's installed correctly. It's in C:\PFiles\Steam\SteamApps\name\dedicated server\cstrike.. I'm sure that's right. But it's still not working.

Ok whatever, I can't get this to work. All I wanted to do was see if it will work with mean mod and I'm sure it can. I just wanted to test if I can get it to work without meanmod else I might run into more problems. But, I'm gonna go ahead and try to get it working with mean mod.

[woot woot]

Ok, I have mean mod installed like this.
In my liblist.gam: gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll"
Target line for DS: +localinfo mm_gamedll mean/mean.dll +localinfo mbotmod epodbot

This is the only way mean mod would properly work with metamod and amx(x). The other methods just crashes my ds. Everything is working perfectly. All plugins are in, epb is ready to be used until I check the console in my ds.

It does not load any bots on ther server. ??? Any ideas? I'm about ready to quit on this bot and go back to using Podbot. -_-"

I can't understand what do you want.
First I have never used meanmod so I can't help you for it.
But I'm sure that you don't need by
"Target line for DS: +localinfo mm_gamedll mean/mean.dll +localinfo mbotmod epodbot"
because EPB is a real metamod plugin. Just add it to the plugins.ini(like amx).
It must look like this:

win32 EPODbot\EPB.dll

What so hard it that?

[woot woot]

It isn't and that is what I did! >.> It will not work trust me, I just can't get it to work. I just wanted to try meanmod if it would be any better.

Even without meanmod, it won't work, and I don't know why. It's in the right directories, it's in plugins.ini, my liblist.gam is right, what else could it be? Everything loads fine, but the bots will not join, it doesn't even go in spectator mode and the menus don't even appear let alone work after I put the fix in.

When I put auto fill on, the bots will fill my server but, it goes over the max of 16 bots and just fills my server, I can't even get in coz there's 24 bots out of 24 spots. Then it crashes coz it's overloading. So then what? I turn off auto fill, and I can't add any bots.

How specific can I get other than that??
