Some Guidence Please.

I don't want to go through all the trouble of installing a Server for CS:S cause I've have had enough trouble as it is..... are the Tutorials on the Main Page of this Website up-to-date? I can basically get the server started.. my main issue is finding Mani-Admin-Plugin I go to the website I can't even find Mani Admin Plugin and it seems like they Favor Meta Mod more, so I find Mani off of other sites but I don't know if they are up to date. maybe if someone can give me a link to the latest Mani Version... do I need Meta for Mani? or what? most guides I find are out dated can someone help set up a server or point me to a nice guide I can trust?

http://www.mani-admin-plugin.com/mani_admin_plugin/v1_2_beta_s/mani_admin_plugin_v1_2_beta_s.zip

Thats the latest version. It contains both VDF and Source Meta Mod versions of the plugin.

Also might be an idea to read this: http://www.mani-admin-plugin.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=89&Itemid=1

Explains the difference between VDF and SMM versions and how to install the SMM version.

Thanks a lot BLIK!

Another Question....

I got a roughly 2 1/2 MB of Upload, and I want to run a 16 person server I heard that's more than enough Bandwidth to do so.

And I'm running it on a Server I made out of my old AGP Box it's running a AMD 64 3000+ @ 2.0 GHz with 1 GB of DDR 3200 2x512 ( Dual Channel ) with a Maxtor 320 GB IDE HDD (7200rpm).

What is the Ideal "maxrate" I should have it at for players to run smooth and get a generous amount of ping,not lag at full players but not necessarily eat all of my Bandwidth?

Current is at 10000

Sorry for the Bump, but now every time I star my server it closes right away.

And it creates a bunch of "Steam__194572__2007_12_5T2_37_15C78.mdmp" files.

I used that guide and installed MetaMod and Mani as a plugin exactly how it told me. any ideas?

*EDIT* Nevermind I fixed it. I put a Game in front of the GameBin |gameinfo_path|addons/metamod/bin line.

Ok boots up and does this.

And when I join, no sign of the Mods/Plugins working and I'm pretty sure I installed it right....

Sorry for all the bumps, trying to show my progress so it's easier to help me.

**EDIT** I went over the install and double checked, I put "exec mani_Server.cfg in my Server.cfg and it seemed to load Mani and if I type meta version in console it detects that but here is my problem... when the server boots.

type "plugin_print" at the console for vsp version and it will list it if it's loaded

if you are using the metamod they type "meta list" instead

I'm using MetaMod and I was told that with MetaMod you didn't need to make a VDF file for Mani but then I get unknown commands so I add VDF file and it recognizes them and works.

when I type meta list it's not detecting mani but when i type meta version it's detecting meta.

[blik]

If you created the VDF and then it started working, you are using the VDF version.

It will be listed under the meta list command it metamod succesfully loads it.

Make sure you have the correct entry in the metamod.ini file for mani admin.

[Evanonian]

It's in there.

\addons\mani_admin_plugin\bin\mani_admin_plugin_mm i've even tried it with .dll at the end still no mani detected under "meta list"

[fqdn]

what does your plugins.ini look like, or whatever the file is where you tell meta what to load.

Fixed it.... *feels dumb* overlooked something small... I had my metaplugins.ini file in the metamod/bin folder it was supossed to be in the metamod folder everything works 100% now. thanks for the help guys, sorry if I was any trouble.
