TF2, How fast respawn?

[killerbot]

Hey!

Some servers use fast respawn option. Can someone explain to a noob how to activate or to set up a fast respawn on a Linux Server?

(I got shell access)

Please help me
Thx guys!

I think the only way to set this up is to use Beetlesmod. There is certainly no cvar for setting this.

Only plugins can modify the respawn rate.

i don't get why people think that buggy pile of crap beetlesmod is the only thing that works on tf2.

install sourcemod, and you can use
"sm_cvar mp_respawnwavetime 5"
there IS a cvar for it, but it's hidden.

You could look into an event scripts plugin too, but sourcemod works just fine. I wouldn't touch beetlesmod with a 50 foot stick.

no need to crap on other mods goerge, it works fine for me and a lot of other people as well.

Sorry I'm really a noob, but can anyone tell me where i get Sourcemod or "Beetlesmod" from? Or where to install it. Thx

Would be really nice

http://www.beetlesmod.com/comm/ then to install http://qoda.net/cssource/minimumadmin/doc/

ok now i installed it and the commands work!

But can anyone tell me what to do now with "sm_cvar mp_respawnwavetime 5" should i use it as console command or can i write it down anywhere so that it stays for ever?

TFTrue is another mod that does it as well: http://www.trypants.com/showthread.php?s=941fd20a6e0a6823b08f2bc2d5d6a28b&t=130

[Spartanfrog]

Well which one did you install killerbot?

[killerbot]

i installed Sourcemod...and it worked until the update yesterday...now nothing works again...

i hat the orangebox metamod installed and the sourcemod...but since the update this night sm does not work anymore...
it tells me always that all those sm_commands are unknown...and i thought it would work now!

Edit: I updated Sourcemod, but it still does not work...

[Paria]

when the server updates the gamedata.txt file gets overwritten have you re-added the |gamebin| entry for metamod ?

[Spartanfrog]

that makes sense

[killerbot]

it works again thx!

[Drocona]

Set it to read only so it won't get overwritten again
