Re: Restrict weapons for certain maps
 

Hey guys im a noob with amx. I managed to get csdm working ok with the gun menu etc. But like Darknightcze2 i also want to fix the awp maps so that you auto get a deagle and awp and cant buy anything else. I tried all the above that you said and i still cant get it to work. It will still say awp limit reached when i drop my awp and i cannot pick another one up untill i kill another bot. Even with the sniper commands at the end of the amxx.cfg file adjusted once im in the game it reverts to the default settings. Any ideas as ive spent days not getting any results.

*UPDATE*

Just incase you dont understand here is the error log:

Re: Restrict weapons for certain maps
 

I believe You are using some of my All-In-One packages with plugins I'm supporting (mapchooser4, maphandler06, sniperlimit etc). Form that what I can see from Your logs You have some troubles with loading even standard (original) AMX X plugins (like admin, admincmd, pluginmenu, imessage etc). That menas You may need to compile that locally against the AMX X version You are currently using.
About max_awps , max_autos, winspread_awp, winspread_auto, autolimit, awplimit, checkrebuy settings - they are for sniperlimit plugin and they have nothing to do to CSDM. If You want to disable this plugin for awp_xxx maps, all You need to do is put the settings for them in amxx.cfg (like for normal maps), but then - in amxmodx/configs/maps/prefix_awp.cfg You should just write
awplimit 0
autolimit 0

That should disable sniperlimit plugin working on awp maps, but it should work normaly on others.

Log messages You provided here about those settings are telling me one thing - You have put them in wrong place (I believe in amxmodx\configs\csdm\extraconfigs\ in some awp_xxx.cfg file and in section [items] or [item_restrictions]. But as I said - those settings have nothing to do with CSDM nor itemomode of CSDM - so they shouldn't be there.

#1 "If You want to disable this plugin for awp_xxx maps, all You need to do is put the settings for them in amxx.cfg"

The bottom of my amxx.cfg file reads:

// ***********************
// Custom plugin settings
// ***********************

// gore plugin
// a - Headshot blood
// b - Extra blood effects
// c - Bleeding on low health
// d - Gib explosion (knife, HE, high damage only)
amx_gore ab

// mapchooser4

amx_mapchooser_type 1
amx_mapchooser_mapsfile maps.ini
amx_nominfromfile 0
amx_maxnominperplayer 2
amx_map_history 5

amx_rtv 1
amx_rtv_percent 0.6
amx_rtv_min_time 10

amx_extendmap_max 5
amx_extendmap_step 3
amx_ext_round_max 5
amx_ext_round_step 3

// sniperlimit
max_awps 90
max_autos 90
winspread_awp 0
winspread_auto 0
autolimit 0
awplimit 0
checkrebuy 1

Correct me if im wrong.

#2 "Log messages You provided here about those settings are telling me one thing - You have put them in wrong place (I believe in amxmodx\configs\csdm\extraconfigs\ in some awp_xxx.cfg file and in section [items] or [item_restrictions].

Where should they be then ? As I really want to solve the awp maps problem. All i want is auto awp and auto deagle for every player/bot and to restrict buying completely.

*Update*

I found the compile thingy in scripting folder and used the .exe seems to have fixed somethings as there is less in the error log. Take a look for yourself:

I think it has fixed the awp limiting problem and buying seems to be restricted. The few things above I have no idea about. And I think that leaves the last thing to be fixed for everyone to have a deagle by default(auto).

Cheers for your help and patience with me so far mate,

Re: Restrict weapons for certain maps
 

That means - more than likely - You are using original CSDM module with my stripper plugin. You should use CSDM module (csdm_amxx.dll or csdm_amxx_i386.so) provided by me in beta package (or in All-In-One package - they are the same).

Re: Restrict weapons for certain maps
 

Yeah I tried the csdm module in your all-in-one package and it still gave me the same error log.

How do i set it that everyone gets a deagle automatically on all awp maps ?

Andy.

Re: Restrict weapons for certain maps
 

CSDM can only automatically equip player with grenades or armor, but it doesn't automatically equip them with any primary or secondary weapon. The only thing You can do with CSDM is to let players have in their gun menu only deagle available (but the players still have to choose it from the gun menu) for awp maps. You may need to create in addons\configs\maps\prefix-awp.cfg with this line:
Then - in addons\configs\csdm\extraconfigs\guns_awp.cfg You should write such lines:

You can also try to make the section [primary] empty.

Re: Restrict weapons for certain maps
 

Ahh right ok that makes sense mate. Ok scrap that how do I go about making csdm to automatically equip players with grenades and full armor then ?

Re: Restrict weapons for certain maps
 

Do You mean on all maps or only on awp maps?
If on all maps, then You need to have these lines in csdm.cfg:
If You are just talking about awp maps - then You should have those above lines in guns_awp.cfg file.

Remember - in guns_awp.cfg file You should have to have only settings for differences between normal maps and awp maps (don't write there everything).

Example - on normal maps You want to let the player choose everyting from gun menus, but no flashbangs:
The responsible part of csdm.cfg looks like:
But for awp maps You want to have players automatically equiped with nades (including flashbang), armor and helmet, but no primary weapon menu (only secondary). Then the whole guns_awp.cfg file looks like:
Instead asking - just read the config and play a bit with settings.

Re: Restrict weapons for certain maps
 

I tried all variations of that gun_awp.cfg in the extraconfigs folder but no luck so I give up. The other mainly annoying problem im getting is node errors in the waypoints and maps like sa_treetops aint working properly. That might not be in your area of expertize though.

Andy

Re: Restrict weapons for certain maps
 

The only thing I cannot be sure is this prefix awp thing, I mean if this file is whole interpreted by AMX X:
addons\configs\maps\prefix-awp.cfg
To make sure the contents of it is called, rename the file name to awp_bycastor32.cfg (leave everything else as You did it untill now whole testing those configs described by me above) then try to play some map to see if settings for standard maps are working, then call changelevel for Your awp_bycastor32 map. Check how CSDM is working on that map (if there are any differences with equiping players, showing menus etc).

BTW - waypoints problem for podbot mm is also somehow in my scope, byt this is not the right forum to ask such things.

Go there to ask the question related podbot mm waypoints.
