FAQ (Important!)

Q: I get errors when the extra-items are being registered. What should I do?
A: These errors appear if you're coming from another version of Zombie Plague or an older version of Zombie Plague Shade (lower than 1.1) due to the Item Limiter system. The solution to this problem is to shutdown the server and replace the configs/zp_extraitems.ini file with a blank one. Restart the server after the previous step and start enjoying Zombie Plague Shade.

Q: Why is the Buy Classes plugin (for buying a special gamemode) malfunctioning?
A: Zombie Plague Shade doesn't allow playing a mode if the last one wasn't a normal one.This is why the players will loose ammo packs and they will not be transformed when they will buy a mode.The only Buy Classes plugin that is compatible with this ZP build is the one edited by ROKronoS: https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=243148

Q: If I'm going to use this version, do I have to edit the extra-items and the zombie classes?
A: Because a new mode has been introduced, some subplugins will have to be edited (example: to verify if the user is a Bombardier).

Q: The Bombardier has access to some extra-items and it can use the powers of the zombie classes.What can I do?
A: Check the question above.

Q: What do I have to do if I encounter bugs or some resources are missing?
A: All the problems must be reported in this topic in order to be fixed.
