• TF2 Server Mod Questions
    20 replies, posted
Because my friend is an [B]idiot[/B] he bought a year-long subscription for a TF2 server. We don't have a clue on how to do anything. Could use some help. :f5: [B][U]General goals - [/U][/B] To get custom sounds on the server, played when a certain word or phrase is entered. Rock the vote, roll the dice. Make certain mods admin only. Admins being able to place props on the map during a game. And an idea was to have an added weapon "The Banhammer" and ban people from the server on kill (admin only ofcourse). [I]Thanks in advance, Evil[/I]
[URL="http://www.sourcemod.net"]www.sourcemod.net[/URL] will help you do some of those. [URL]http://sourcemod.net/plugins.php?cat=0&mod=5&title=&author=&description=&search=1[/URL] is a list of mods for TF2. I'm not sure how to do all of those, but just look through that list and see if you can find what you're looking for.
Make your own weapons, hats and what not. Get stat tracking.

I'll see if I can find it for you. [B]Edit:[/B] Found it. It's called saysounds. [URL]http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=496226[/URL] [B]Edit 2:[/B] It only comes with 3 sounds. You'll have to add your own. If you want, I can PM you some sounds I've found on various servers so that you have some more sounds.

If you can't, ask the AM forums.

Tell us when you get your server up and running.
[QUOTE=pikzen;22745665]:downs: This plugin already exists, why would he make a new one ?[/QUOTE] Notice the edits in the post above mine? They found the link after I made my post. :downs: Not only that, making your own one means that you can customise it to the way you want and add whatever other features you like with ease.

I'm pretty sure that they all give the .sp file, which is the sourcecode for it. So if you have the know-how, you can edit the plugins for your own server. Though it [I]is[/I] polite to give credit to the original author for giving you pretty much all of your code.
You can modify the source code of many of the plugins, however many of the 'unapproved' plugins are there for the sole reason they don't have the source posted. Sometimes it's more fun to make it yourself anyway. ;)

I wanted to learn it, but it just didn't hold my attention. So I found something else, and it's really fun. Though for other people, it would be the most boring thing ever. It just depends on who you are, I guess.
Thanks for all the replies, guys. The server is almost ready for play, still testing. I got SaySounds, Cosmetic Leveling mod, and roll the dice working. Now to be able let admins place items on the map while noclipping..?

Meaning you have to be an admin. However, to place objects around the map, there's only one way that I know of. And that's by having cheats turned on. But if you turn cheats on, you leave your server open to attacks. There are some people out there that will purposely find your server and attack it, using exploits that only work with cheats. So it's not a good idea to turn cheats on. But if there is another way to spawn props and stuff without cheats, I don't know it. Though I wouldn't be surprised if there is another way, through modding.

[B]Or someone else?[/B] :fuckyou:[/QUOTE] You'd probably have a better time asking at the Allied Modder's forum. They're pretty nice, and you might be able to find someone willing to do it. Although I can't promise it'll be for free.
