Empires mod & Mani Admin

Hi there,

I am from the Mani Admin forums. We have had some people asking for support for this mod with Mani admin, I am aware that Mani already supports it, but supports the Beta versions of the plugin. Since I have no idea about the plugin, can you please edit the gameinfo.txt file so the plugin is up-to-date with it.

This is the section you will need to edit please!

Code:

	"Empires"
	{
		// Specify the linux game binary location

		"linux_bin"		"./empires/bin/server_i486.so"

		// Set to 1 if spectator is allowed for this mod
		"spectator_allowed"	"1"

		// The internal team index for spectators
		// You can identify this by running ma_teamindex as a spectator
		"spectator_index"	"1"

		// The group name to identify spectators when running a ma_ command
		"spectator_group"	"#SPEC"

		// Set to 1 if amx style menus actually work on the mod
		"hl1_menu_compatible"	"0"

		// Set to 1 if team play is allowed, 0 if not
		"team_play"		"1"

		// Number of user messages to scan for. Too high a number will
		// cause the server to crash. 22 okay for all mods at the moment
		"max_messages"		"22"

		// Team manager entities pattern string
		"team_manager" 		"sdk_team_"

		// Offsets for voice control, do not change
		// If your mod has no voice server remove the
		// voice_control section or comment it out
		"voice_control"
		{
			"linux_offset"	"3"
			"win_offset"	"2"
		}

		// Offsets for spray hook control, do not change
		"spray_hook_control"
		{
			"linux_offset"	"29"
			"win_offset"	"28"
		}

		// Offsets for extra spawn points hook
		"spawn_point_control"
		{
			"linux_offset"	"2"
			"win_offset"	"2"
		}

		// Advanced visual effects offsets, linux should work most of the
		// time depending on how the server binary has been compiled.
		// The windows version will probably not work on non-valve mods.
		// The command ma_offset and ma_offsetscan is not applicable here

		"advanced_effects"
		{
			"enable_linux"	"1"	// Allow linux advanced effects

	}

The game looks great by the way... nice work

has anyone tried getting it to work yet?

 

couldnt get it to work, was anyone else able to not make it crash with this added at the end of the gameinfo file?

 

I'm pretty sure this topic is about getting the correct values from Krenzo, and putting them into the manimod game info file.

 

I don't know what exact variable they're getting the offset for.

 

Of course we want Mani Mod to work, but EKS (from the IRC channel) made a mod called BAT (Basic Admin) for meta mod that does almost everything mani mod does and is very easy to install.

Read about it here: http://www.thexsoft.com/index.php?page=basic-admin-tool

 

I had moderate success with it on a linux server, but it crashed at seemingly random times.
