Domain admin-mod.de gone for good
|
19.08.2006
|
The German web presence for Admin Mod used to be reachable under two domains: adminmod.de and admin-mod.de. In the beginning neither of the domains were registered by the Admin Mod Team but by other individuals. Although this worked well for some years, we have gone through quite some trouble over the last years as those people started to lose interest and eventually sold the domains. This has led to the web pages being unavailable from time to time under either one or the other web address. In the meantime the Admin Mod Team was lucky enough to acquire the adminmod.de domain (thank God for that) but wasn't able to get into possession of admin-mod.de, too.
Which brings us to today where we're once again facing the situation that the current owner of admin-mod.de has no interest in using that domain for Admin Mod. In fact, we were lucky enough to copy the German web presence to a backup server since it was hosted on a server owned by the same guy which is now gone. So we now have the German web pages hosted on our own server and under adminmod.de owned by us. Unfortunately the owner of admin-mod.de got a little greedy and is asking a ridiculous price for admin-mod.de which we are not willing to pay. That means that we have to say Good-bye to admin-mod.de once and for all.
So the domain admin-mod.de is no longer a valid address for the German Admin Mod web presence. I presume that noone will pay the price asked and thus it will one day go the way of all domains: hogged by some domain grabber presenting dubious ads under it.
Please change any links pointing to admin-mod.de that you still have to adminmod.de and let us know if you find any old links on our web pages or in the forums that still point to admin-mod.de. Sorry for the trouble. That's what you get sometimes for relying on other people. |

Metamod 1.19 has been released. This release supports the new HL engine interface functions QueryClientCvarValue2() and ClientCvar2(), adds support for "Move In! 1.0" and "Special Death Match Alpha 2.0" and fixes a few bugs, one of which prevented the use of Metamod 1.18 on older servers e.g. CS1.5.
As ususal you can download it from the Metamod website or the Metamod SourceForge page. |

Metamod: Thanks for you help

Thank you everyone who helped analysing that bug we had in Metamod by sending in server logs. We consider the bug now found and successfully squished. If you were among those who had problems running a listenserver on an older version of HL with Metamod 1.18, you may want to download some preview binaries of the upcoming Metamod release 1.19 and see if these fix your problem. If not, let us know by leaving a comment here. |

A new plugin and an updated one
|
25.03.2006

After promising Br5dy for weeks to publish it, here is his latest plugin:
plugin_planned_shutdown (scheduled server shutdown)
Furthermore, Whiteman told me that there is a bug in the CW Creator 3 which prevents admin_war_switch from working:
plugin_cw_creator3 (admin_war_switch fix)
Like always, have fun! |

Metamod: Help squish the bug
|
11.01.2006

If you are running an old HL server or have an old HL/CS/etc. installation, you can help investigate a bug in Metamod. "Old" here means anything pre-Steam, since if you are running Steam then you will have had the newest, latest version pushed upon you anyway. Now, if you managed to somehow have skipped the last Steam updates in the past, say, two to four months, and your server is actually still running, then please read on, too! Everyone else with up-to-date versions can now go back doing whatever you did before you came here. =)
There is currently a bug in Metamod that unfortunately only manifests in a visible form in old servers. We're mostly talking 1311x and 411x servers here. Older, too, if you really still run such a beast. We need some info on the engine interface from all the different variations out there. So the more info about different server versions and installations we can gather, the better.
If you are willing to help out and spare a few minutes and can afford to restart your server or fire up a listenserver, here's how. You will have to download a special version of the Metamod DLL which will dump lots of gibberish into the servers log file. (You will have to run the server (i.e. client for a listenserver) with logging turned on.) Add info on your servers version and build date and Mod version to the logfile and send it to us via email. The download is an archive that contains a Readme.txt file with instructions on what to do, what info to gather and where to send the log file to. There is a Windows and a Linux version available.
In case you are worried about sharing information from your logs, we're really only looking for the additional info that Metamod spews out. That is on most cases confined to one log file during server startup which usually contains no private info like passwords etc. That is the only logfile we need. If you're still concerned, the file is in plaintext format, so you can edit out anything private. |
