MANI ADMIN HELP

[rubberduckie84]

Hi,

Im running a dedicated server for CS:S and would like mani admin plug in installed.
*i have downloaded mani from the mani website
*extracted it into the dedicated server/cstrike folder, made sure the VDF is present also
*restarted the server

and when i try use mani it sais unknown command admin

I tried repeating this process and same again "unknown command".
so i removed my username profile for steam, re-downloaded dedicated server, and used another version of mani (1.1) and still the same again

If in server console i type exec mani_Server.cfg i get a huge list of unknown command

So again i deleted everything, downloaded mani AGAIN extracted to cstrike folder created a new VDF restarted server and yet it still sais "unknown command"

PEASE help ive read the install notes on mani's site and many others so it must be somthing simple im missing

thankz

If you are renting your server you can contact your server provider. If not then make sure you have clients.txt as thats where you add the admins.

[trewq]

do you have a vtf in your addons dir thats called mani.vtf of somthing like that?

Here's a link of a srcds guide. Go to the part about mani admin plugin and follow the instructions.

Did you forget to put exec mani_server.cfg in server.cfg?

none of you actually read my problem!

Therfor having the exec mani_server.cfg in server.cfg or autoexec.cfg wouldnt make a difference, its just manually running the command

Yes the VDF is present in the addons folder!!

Anyone one with inteligence please help!

[blik]

Does plugin_print say its even loaded? Anyone with any intelligence would have checked that first

[trewq]

this is normally caused by an VDF being ether invalid or not their.
Can you please put in the content of the VDF file?

More info pls... OS/ What did MM version/ config/ VDF file etc... I realy think you've made a mistake ...

[Ghost Assassin]

exec mani_server.cfg is supposed to be in the server.cfg

FYI....there are two ways to install mani admin plugin...

the normal way and the one where you can load it as a meta mod source plugin.

[rubberduckie84]

OK!
Let me break it down for all u retards...
ill tell u step by step what ive done

*downloaded srcds to c:\
*followed the on screen instructions to update and download all files needed
*run srcds to test-works, people can join
*downloaded mani 2.1 beta s
*extracted to c:\srcds\cstrike
*run "create vdf" in addons folder selected cstrike nd save in same folder

[for king goilio]>>> heres whats in the vdf

Quote:"Plugin"
{
"file" "../cstrike/addons/mani_admin_plugin"
}

*downloaded clientscreatortool v2.1 and put in c:\srcds
*run clientcreator tool, hiit enter and copy and pasted the clients.txt into c:\srcds\cfg\mani_admin_plugin
*rebooted server
*logged on to server through css

When i go to ingame console after pressing admin button it sais
"unknown command" "admin"

*so i go back to my sever console, try manually executing the cfg files
*so i type exec server.cfg - this is good
*i next type exec mani_server.cfg - not good

When i type exec mani_server.cfg i get a big list [as i said in my 1st post] which i will copy n paste for u

Quote:Connection to Steam servers successful.

Unknown command "mani_advert_col_green"
Unknown command "mani_advert_col_blue"
Unknown command "mani_adminsay_anonymous"
Unknown command "mani_adminkick_anonymous"

the list is much bigger but its unknown all the way down

SO JUST TO CLARIFY

SRCDS DOWLOADED FROM PARENT SITE
MANI DOWNLOADED ROM PARENT SITE
4 MANI FOLDERS addons materials cfg sound are in c:\sdrcs\cstrike
VDF IS PRESENT
CLIENTS.TXT IS PRESENT

as for my operating system im using win xp - and yes i downloaded srcds for windows and even if i didnt its only the vdf that makes the difference - which is present!

mani mod is latest version from mani website!

so overall i think that for the srcds console to say unknown command to all the cfg files in a big list must mean that they are in the right place otherwise it wouldnt known its an unknown command.

this leaves the dll and the vdf to cause problems both are present and both have been reinstalled.

So, please if u r trying to help dont just ask.... " is the vdf present?"

oooh and btw FYI!!!!!!

Quote:exec mani_server.cfg is supposed to be in the server.cfg

FYI any exec command put in autoexec will run sam as if it was in server.cfg

Even if i was wrong ... manually typing exec mani_server.cfg would solve that minor disbute...

YOU ARE A DUNCE PUT YOUR HAT ON!

OK for the retard who ignored my post!

Does plugin_print command even say it's loaded?!

[trewq]

We are just trying to help you, their is no need to call us retards!

[Spartanfrog]

This thread made me laugh . Anyway calling someone a retard is not necessarily the best way to get help.

[Arjen]

Lol calling us retards. You've got a serious problem ... read the mani read me files ...

[asundrus]

Allthough i'm pretty new here, and just recently got mani working, I actually would have added my ideas and suggestions in this topic, but reading the latest post from the dude in need of help, this is all i'm going to post in this topic:

And it's raining.
