The VIP plugin enables the assassination style game play from
Counter-Strike in the Counter-Strike:Source environment. (See
Info for Players.)
| 1. |
Download and install MetaMod:Source.
MetaMod:Source is available at
SourceMM.net with
full instructions for installation.
|
| 2. |
Start the server and type
meta. If you receive
an error because the command is unknown, go back to Step 1. |
| 3. |
Unzip the files/folders from the cstrike
folder in the zip package to the cstrike folder on your
server. If you use a sv_downloadurl for fast downloading,
upload everything except the cstrike/addons directory to
the sv_downloadurl web server. |
| 4. |
Open cstrike/addons/metamod/metaplugins.ini
and add the following line: For Windows,
addons\metamod\bin\vip_mm
For Linux,
addons/metamod/bin/vip_mm_i486.so
|
| 5. |
Start your server and type meta list at the
console. You should see something like this:
meta list
-Id- Name
Version Author
Status
[01] VIP mod 1.0
L. Duke RUN |
If you see ERROR or FAIL
instead of VIP mod, the plugin didn't load. Check your server logs
to determine why. If you have a Linux server and get
find an error message in the logs about libstdc++.so.6,
try the alternate Linux so file.
If you see NO FILE instead of VIP
mod, either your
path is setup wrong in metaplugins.ini or the file is
not in that location.

| 6. |
To test the operation of the plugin,
download an as_ map or the as_test map
provided on the VIP plugin mappers
page. |
| 7. |
VIP Plugin cvars:
- vip_dropweapons 1/0 (default 0) 0 use default
weapons handling, 1 VIP drops primary weapons
- vip_t_sniper_awp 1/0 (default 1) 1 use awp, 0
use scout (this was added so the T's can still have a
sniper weapon on no AWP servers)
|
| 8. |
Sign
up for the VIP plugin mailing list. You will only receive
email when the VIP plugin is updated or a Valve update
requires an plugin update. (Historically, most updates
haven't required a fix, except for Valve's July model
changes.) |
