server configuration

[mattb]

1. There's something wrong with the server keeps resetting my admins.cfg and
admin_groups.cfg

2. And now when I bring up the server its a console not that valve thing
anymore.

I've spent all day trying to figure out why its doing this.

Are you editing the admins.cfg file outside the game? If so, your plugin is probably overwriting it later, if you aren't doing it with the server off.

As far as the GUI, make sure that you're not starting the game server with the -console option.

First what I did I edited the admins.cfg when the server is off, the config is ok, but when i turn on the server I go to check the admins.cfg and admin_groups.cfg it shows

"Groups"{} - admin_groups.cfg

"Admins"{} - admins.cfg

for the GUI I have:

Code: Select all

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c start /high /d"c:\game installs\sourcebase\orangebox" "Game server" "c:\game installs\sourcebase\orangebox\srcds.exe" -game cstrike -ip 0.0.0.0 -port 27015 +map de_dust2 -maxplayers 24 -console -nocrashdialog

GUI doesn't really matter?

If those files are being blanked, it is because the plugin is writing out empty ones. Have you updated your plugins since the latest game release? If not, this is something that you should try first. If you have, then it is possible that your files aren't in the correct format or something similar; checking the logs for your plugins and the game server itself should give you more information.

To see the Valve GUI, you'll need to remove the -console option.

I'm running the latest sourcemod and metamod version

sourcemod 1.3.4

metamod 1.8.3

If you're running the most recent Orangebox release, you need to go beyond that version of Sourcemod, and run the latest snapshot: http://www.sourcemod.net/snapshots.php
