L4D Mod

[Sn00ks]

This is the one I was considering. It goes through each of the Hunter techniques, like vert and kai jumping (he says knowledgably!)

Looks like it should work as a server based map.

Uploading that and 'Coal'd blood' campaign now...............Done


changelevel l4d_coaldblood01 thru' 04 if you want them
or
changelevel hunter_training, hunter_training_c21 or hunter_training_map

Looks like the original mod is still lurking. Last night we had seven players and got double tanks and then another tank later in the level. :blink:
Might need something a bit more drastic to remove it?

I've rebooted t'server.

I tried a reboot of the server again yesterday late afternoon. Did it make any difference, I couldn't get on last night. Were there enough players, i.e. six, to trigger the double Tank?

still doubling up.....I think it may be the startup shortcut....

Here's what it's using

Code Select Expand

start /wait C:\Servers\27031_L4D\l4d\srcds.exe -game left4dead -autoupdate -console +ip 77.108.129.45 +hostport 27031 +log on +servercfgfile "server27031.cfg" -maxplayers 10 -tickrate 100 -nocrashdialog +mp_gamemode versus +map l4d_vs_hospital01_apartment
Let me know if it needs changing.

hmmm....that ain't it.

Bugger, pass me the drawing board once you've finished with it.

[Benny]

Right, I think I found the offending file in the config.
it's the pieces with 'downtown' in that screw the player code. I've left the original UNREST folder in place for reference, but I think I've got rid of the installed files.

There's a .dll in the addons/sourcemod folder that I've renamed to .OLD if we ever want it back.

Also restarted the server using '_restart' which I think does it unless anyone fancies giving the server a proper kick..... If anyone gets a chance to test tonight, that would be helpful.

feck, DA reckons it's still duping infected spawns although he's not seen two tanks yet.

This mod is like a particularly advanced virus. I think it's self aware.

[Benny]

Ok, so once I flush out the offending file or we give the server a proper kick, this may be the way to go.

the leftfor downtown is the mod that's on there to allow multiple players above 8, but it also allows you to modify the smoker range.

I'll play locally but may need some help on ColdSotre, whilst it's working ok at the moment, it may need some love. I'd like to keep Meatlocker completely vanilla other than the new maps.

Speaking of which, can someone copy across the coal'd blood vpk from coldstore to meatlocker.

[Benny]

Right........found it! (I think)

In addition there's one more file I want to delete/rename but I'm not 100% so won't just yet. l4dscores.smx in the sourcemod/plugins directory.

No idea what it does but it was definitely added.

Will see.


EDIT - all done bar the file above.......server '_restart'ed, dunno if that does the trick. Let me know if anyone does get a chance.

Definitely found it. Long tongues and all the other gubbins can be enabled and disabled by renaming the unrest.smx file in the following path;

addons/sourcemod/plugins

fairly obvious when you think about it.
To restart the server I've been using "_restart" in rcon and it works a treat.

/breath out. It's currently enabled.

As a side note if you want to practice your hunter skills there's a map on there called hunter_training_map which walks you through some basics which is pretty good.
