Hi. Work only for the gamemode listed in the main page or it is possible to create a cfg specific for every gamemode? I need 1 for the mutation15 and i have not seen mentioned anywhere.

Update: edited by myself to add the mutation15

Been using this plugin on both L4D and L4D2 and it is very useful. Thanks Thraka

Just one question, is it possible to have (or add a feature) a way to have CFG files for a specific game mode to be triggered only based on the number on connected players? That would be extremely usefull since I want to load commands based on the mode and number of players.

Hello! I am attempting to raise versus into expert difficulty but I am having absolutely no luck whatsoever.
I created three different .cfg files in the /left4dead2/cfg/ directory, named coop.cfg, survival.cfg, and versus.cfg. Each one has these settings:

PHP Code:

sm_cvar z_difficulty impossible
z_difficulty impossible
sm_cvar gamemode_resetconvars 0 


Since that wasn't working, I decided to put the following in my server.cfg:

Spoiler

exec versus.cfg
exec gamemode_config_versus versus.cfg
sm_cvar z_difficulty impossible
gamemode_config_versus versus.cfg
gamemode_config_coop_easy coop.cfg
gamemode_config_coop_normal coop.cfg
gamemode_config_coop_hard coop.cfg
gamemode_config_coop_impossible coop.cfg

That wasn't working either, so I finally tried to put this in my autoexec.cfg:

Spoiler

log 1
sm_cvar z_difficulty impossible
map c5m1_waterfront
z_difficulty impossible
versus.cfg

As expected, this resulted in no changes. So I read each post in this thread, copied the code from #119, recompiled- that didn't work either. Lastly, I downloaded #115, and that didn't as well! Dmg stayed consistent at normal dif for all attempts at versus. I'm at my wits end, what am I doing wrong?

@Thraka - Thank you for this plugin. May I make a suggestion? Please change OnMapStart to OnConfigsExecuted. If you use OnMapStart, then any plugin with AutoExecConfig will "win". If you use OnConfigsExecuted, then this plugin will "win" since that is called after all plugins have executed their auto configs.

Also, I can confirm that the plugin works just fine, I have no issues with it. It takes effect on the first map and every map thereafter, and it works immediately when I change gamemodes.

By default only certain game modes obey the z_difficulty cvar. You need Left4Downtown2 and the Difficulty Override plugin, which can be used to trick the game into thinking that every gamemode has a configurable difficulty. https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=1340484

I have also experienced this weird behaviour.
1) Infected spawn distance is greatly increased (fixed with manually using convars in the config files)
2) Smoker tongue recharge on miss time greatly increased (fixed again with manual convars in configs)
3) Infected stumble is greatly increased to 3 seconds or so ( i am unable to fix this, all the infected stumble have a massive stumble duration, i cannot find convars to manually change them)
I am not sure if there are others there might be but it would be good to hear from others about this, please post and let us know
I also have had to edit the code to disable the reset convars cvar.
Does anyone else have any input on this, I would like to re enable this , and fix the problems manually with convars in the relevant cfg files.
Many thanks in advance

This is purely speculation but I would imagine that any scripts that are executed by the engine when the gamemode is switched could be wiped out by the resetconvars.

For example, when mp_gamemode is changed to Realism, the engine executes a script that sets a few cvars, one of which is z_non_head_damage_factor_multiplier. Consider the sequence of events:

Gamemode is set to Realism
Engine executes Realism scripts, setting z_non_head_damage_factor_multiplier to 0.5
This plugin runs, calling resetconvars and restoring the default value of 1.0

EDIT: You should not have to edit the code. Just set gamemode_resetconvars to 0, which is the default. Make sure this is the value it is set to in ....\left4dead2\cfg\sourcemod\plugin_gamemode _script.cfg

Does this support "Realism Versus" mode?

[kot4404]

Doesn't gamemode_resetconvars 0 fuck up gamemode changes? Like the versus spawn si distance, respawn times etc?

This plugin would be very useful, but it is not working for me.

I created 4 .cfg files and put them in the (.CFG / sourcemod) folder, I made a test and checked that the HP of the Tanks does not change according to the configuration of the files I made, so I believe nothing works.

Below is the setting, did I forget to do something? Need some _cvar in sever.cfg ?
