The same way that you did it during the install of Metamod.

Bailo: Think it's time for a sticky for people to check their gameinfo.txt after each update? Never fails...

@disconnect81
ther is a TXT File in the "ctrike" Folder off your Server. Itīs named "gameinfo.txt" if you open it with a Texteditor like "vi" "joe" ( under Linux) ect.. or a real Text Editor unter Windows like "PSPAD" "Notepad++" ect..
you found something like this.
Code:
"GameInfo"
{
    game    "Counter-Strike Source"
    title    "COUNTER-STRIKE'"
    title2    "source"
    type multiplayer_only
    nomodels 1
    nohimodel 1
    nocrosshair 0
    hidden_maps
    {
        "test_speakers"        1
        "test_hardware"        1
    }
    nodegraph 0


    FileSystem
    {
        SteamAppId                240        // This will mount all the GCFs we need (240=CS:S, 220=HL2).
        ToolsAppId                211        // Tools will load this (ie: source SDK caches) to get things like materials\debug, materials\editor, etc.
        
        //
        // The code that loads this file automatically does a few things here:
        //
        // 1. For each "Game" search path, it adds a "GameBin" path, in <dir>\bin
        // 2. For each "Game" search path, it adds another "Game" path in front of it with _<langage> at the end.
        //    For example: c:\hl2\cstrike on a french machine would get a c:\hl2\cstrike_french path added to it.
        // 3. For the first "Game" search path, it adds a search path called "MOD".
        // 4. For the first "Game" search path, it adds a search path called "DEFAULT_WRITE_PATH".
        //

        //
        // Search paths are relative to the base directory, which is where hl2.exe is found.
        //
        // |gameinfo_path| points at the directory where gameinfo.txt is.
        // We always want to mount that directory relative to gameinfo.txt, so
        // people can mount stuff in c:\mymod, and the main game resources are in
        // someplace like c:\program files\valve\steam\steamapps\<username>\half-life 2.
        //
        SearchPaths
        {
            GameBin                |gameinfo_path|addons/metamod/bin   
            Game                |gameinfo_path|.
            Game                cstrike
            Game                hl2
        }
    }
}
the red line is missing if you make a SteamUpdate ( evertime you update your Server !!! ) You have to insert this Line in your "gameinfo.txt" than restart your Server and then "metamod" is running and all other metamod plugins you have korrektly installed.
"GameBin |gameinfo_path|addons/metamod/bin"

if yopu installed your Metamod to a other lokation you have to adapt the path.

The same thing happens every single update, honestly. Read the Metamod:Source documentation and make sure it's running.

I just mark that file as READONLY and the updates dont effect it. Seems to work fine.

My worry of that is if there actually does need to be a change, you may screw up your install and not be able to figure out what caused it for a while.
