I am proud to present, Superhero: Source. First off, I would like to thank {HOJ}Batman and JTP10181 for their development on the Superhero Mod for AMXModX, without his tremendous work, I would have never started on this plug-in. Also, everyone give BAILOPAN and the rest of the SourceMod development team a big hug for their spectacular progress on SourceMod the past couple of years.
This plugin may be referred to as either of the following: Superhero: Source, SH: Source.
Please note, this is a development release, it is fully working, but it is not considered complete. You may make suggestions and report bugs with this release either via this thread, or PM.
Superhero: Source
Written by Anthony Iacono
Gameplay
When you first join the server, you are given an amount of levels (see convar "sh_startlevel"). With these levels, you are allowed to choose the same amount of heroes to add to your arsenal. Each hero has a unique power, or advantage that will help you while playing. Remember, you aren't the only ones with powers. Now that you are ready to play, complete objectives and kill enemies to gain XP points to drive you closer to the next level.

Installation Instructions
Extract the .zip file into your SourceMod directory. (By default, addons/sourcemod/)
Next go to the "extensions" forum and install "SHVector".
At this point you have the actual plug-in installed, but you do not have any heroes installed. See the other post for the hero pack. Remember, if you don't have the hero pack nothing will work!
As of the post time, there isn't a hero pack release yet, but you can get heroes from the repository (http://svn.alliedmods.net/viewvc.cgi...uperherosource), which will compile fine.
Configuration
The default configuration file (sourcemod/configs/shsource.ini) looks as follows:
Code:
"SHSourceSettings"
{
"options"
{
"savetype" "mysql" // Use mysql or local
}
"mysqlsettings"
{
"host" ""
"user" ""
"pass" ""
"database" ""
"port" "" // Leave blank for default
}
"levels"
{
"maxlevel" "20" // What should be the max level a player can achieve?
"longtime" // Configuration if sh_savexp is set to 1
{
"required_xp" "0 100 200 400 800 1600 3200 6400 12800 25600 51200 61200 71200 81200 91200 101200 111200 121200 131200 141200 151200"
"kill_xp" "6 8 10 12 14 16 20 24 28 32 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140"
}
"shorttime" // Configuration if sh_savexp is set to 0
{
"required_xp" "0 100 300 600 1000 2500 4000 6000 8000 10000 12000 14000 16000 18000 20000 22000 24000 26000 28000 30000 32000"
"kill_xp" "60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 240 260 280 300 320 340 360 380 400 420 440 450"
}
}
}
For the time being, if you use sh_savexp 1, you MUST USE MYSQL!
