is .conf a type-o its normally .cfg?

[RavenDan29]

i put these in server.cfg

CVARS
l4d2_loot_config_filename - The name of the config file located in the cfg-sourcemod folder.
l4d2_loot_enabled - Is the infected loot plugin enabled or not.
l4d2_loot_logging - Enable logging.
doesnt regonise them even with sm_cvar infront does it need rcon sm_cvar or rcon infront instead?

This conf file is different than the .cfg file you normally edit. They both exist. So there is l4d2_infected_loot_drops.cfg which is what you do with the CVARS and then l4d2_infected_loot_drops_loot_settings.conf which has the loot script config.

Hi there, big thanks for this add-on, really useful one! I liked to play on servers with it, but right now I'm having problems running it on my server! Maybe you could help me!

First of all, the "Get plugin" link in your thread didn't work for me, saying it couldn't compile and to contact the author. Instead, I downloaded from the link besides it "Get Source" as it seems to be the same thing. I've put the .smx in the plugins folder of sourcemod's one, the .sp in scripting folder and made the l4d2_infected_loot_drops_loot_settings.conf with the one you made in one of your last replies in the left4dead2/cfg/sourcemod folder. Now, when I load the dedicated server, I get in console the following:
[SM] Unable to load extension "config.ext" : Not found
[SM] Unable to load plugin "l4d2_infected_loot_drops.smx": Required extension "Config" file("config.ext") not running

Could you please help me with that? Would be awesome ^^ Thanks a lot!

At the top of the plugin there is a REQUIRED section which points to the Config SourceMod Extension. This is needed. I've updated the instructions to give more information on how to install this.

You cannot use the Get Plugin link because it needs the extension to compile. You don't need to put the .sp in Scripting unless you wanted to modify it and compile it yourself. If that was the case, you would need to grab the include file for the extension (tells the script how to interact with the extension when you compile it.

If you just want to run it as is, and modify the conf file, you just plop the attached .smx into your plugin folder and the extension .dll or .so (.so is for linux) in your Addons/SourceMod/Extensions folder. You may need to initiate the _restart command from the console so SourceMod loads the extension.

"l4d2_infected_loot_drops_loot_settings.c onf which has the loot script config" does this then go in the script's folder?

[RavenDan29]

lol yeah same error didnt know this sourcemod thing was something new

L 03/01/2010 - 19:266: [SM] Unable to load plugin "l4d2_infected_loot_drops.smx": Required extension "Config" file("config.ext") not running

[Thraka]

Like I stated, please reread the front page. It has information on what you need to do to get the plugin to work and where to put your .conf file.

ok thx, still havent seen a single item drop but i think i got the jist,

cvars tell it to load .conf file which sould have

// Executed anytime any of the normal classes die: smoker, hunter, charger, boomer, spitter, jockey
normal_infected:
{
repeat = 1;
dice = [100];

things = (
{ name = "weapon_pain_pills_spawn";
type = "item";
min = 1;
max = 85;
},
{ name = "weapon_pain_pills_spawn";
type = "item";
min = 1;
max = 85;
},
{ name = "weapon_pain_pills_spawn";
type = "item";
min = 1;
max = 85;
},
{ name = "weapon_molotov_spawn";
type = "item";
min = 1;
max = 85;
},
{ name = "weapon_defibrillator_spawn";
type = "item";
min = 86;
max = 90;
},
{ name = "weapon_vomitjar_spawn";
type = "item";
min = 86;
max = 90;
},
{ name = "weapon_first_aid_kit_spawn";
type = "item";
min = 91;
max = 100;
},
{ name = "weapon_autoshotgun";
type = "weapon";
min = 91;
max = 100;
}
);
};

This in it correct?

So how do i know it works if i havent seen a single item drop?

I put this in server.cfg
sm_cvar l4d2_loot_config_filename "l4d2_infected_loot_drops_loot_settings.c onf"
sm_cvar l4d2_loot_enabled "1"
sm_cvar l4d2_loot_logging "1"

should it not be "left4dead2\217.163.27.135:27015\left4dead2\l eft4dead2\cfg\sourcemod\l4d2_infected_loot_dr ops_loot_settings.conf ie telling exacually were it is?

[RavenDan29]

repeat = 0;

things = (

{ name = "weapon_pain_pills_spawn";
type = "item";

jockey:
},
{ name = "weapon_pain_pills_spawn";
type = "item";

spitter:
},
{ name = "weapon_pain_pills_spawn";
type = "item";

boomer:

{ name = "weapon_molotov_spawn";
type = "item";

{ name = "weapon_defibrillator_spawn";
type = "item";
