updated to latest files, followed all instructions word for word but when I type meta or meta version in the console it says unknown command.

What is the output of plugin_print in your server console? Can you attach the addons/metamod.vdf file?

[Gmbrdilos]

I'll do that tonight when I get home. May I also mention that the only metamod plugin I run is BAT. I think I've read somewhere around here that someone else had a problem too.

[Gmbrdilos]

this is what I get when I type plugin_list

Loaded plugins:
---------------------
---------------------

as for the vdf, its attached below

Make sure you downloaded Metamod:Source 1.6 and not 1.4.

[Gmbrdilos]

it is 1.6

works fine with gameinfo.txt but not with vdf

[BAILOPAN]

What happens if you (having disabled the gameinfo.txt mechanism) try:

plugin_load "../tf/addons/metamod/bin/server_i486.so"

In your server console?

[Gmbrdilos]

this is what I get

Unable to load plugin "../tf/addons/metamod/bin/server_i486.so"
Unable to load plugin "../tf/addons/metamod/bin/server_i486.so"

Oh dear, that's not good. Are you sure your server is linux? I don't mean to say that insultingly, just that a few times people have made this mistake and when they change _i486.so to .dll it starts working.

Otherwise, Valve's plugin system does not print helpful messages. I'd probably have to get shell access and use GDB to diagnose the problem further. Though if you have shell access you could try this for me:

cd <orangebox>
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=".:bin:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
ldd -d -r tf/addons/metamod/bin/server_i486.so

I am pretty positive that its linux but I am not completely sure since I am renting it and I never asked. I will try to use the windows one and see what happens. As for shell access, I definetly don't have that, not my rig
