Hosting Your Own Server

[PNCL Paralyze]

Hey, i would like to ask if someone or anyone know what the others are using for kind of hosting program? For the moment im using the "Zombie Panic Source Dedicated Server" but i know on other server they have like auto things that says things and other stuffs.

They have something so people can say like "!rules" and they see a list of rules..
Alot of other things then, so if you know what they are using please let me know.

I like the ZpS - Dedicated Server, but i would like to have these auto message and commands things. :*

Those are Plugins, optional extensions of the server.

Here's a start.

I followed all the steps there were and installed at the right place.. I think -.-' They don't explain so good :S But nothing work as i typed into the server "meta listed" or "meta version" and nothings happend just says
- Commands meta does not exist

I tried his tutorial but that does not work either. A video would be great!

So what should i do?

Read the documentation

http://wiki.alliedmods.net/Installing_Metamod:Source

I have done it many times over and over again. I went to this site [ http://wiki.alliedmods.net/Installin...d_%28simple%29 ] and followed the instructions there. I installed everything right and such at the right place (i think..) but when i type into the consol..

When i type in this i get this respond
meta version ->
Unknown command "meta"

Why does it not say Unknown command "meta version"

I have done everything as it says and still !1 WHY!!

What about the detail that the link I sent you is different than the one you replied saying you followed and didn't work?

Make sure to put your topics in the right section.


Console returning "Unknown command "meta"" instead of "meta version" is not a problem. That's just simply saying metamod is not loading for some reason. If you have all the files in the correct place, the problem probably is that metamod.vdf is not pointing to the correct directory. You can open it up using notepad and see what it says. Mine says:

"Plugin"
{
    "file"    "../zps/addons/metamod/bin/server"
}

Which is probably what yours already says, if not change it, save it and try again. Make sure that metamod.vdf IS placed in "../zps/addons/" and NOT in "../zps/addons/metamod/".
