1. Introduction

+ +

1.1 About The Plugin

+

Zombie:Reloaded remake of Zombie Mod with a lot of new features and improvements. It's made for +a Counter-Strike: Source server and runs on a powerful scripting platform called SourceMod.

+ +

1.2 Game Objectives

+

The objectives is to change the game into humans versus zombies. Humans try to survive by +camping, barricading and hiding. Zombies try to zombify humans by using their knife.

+ +

At a random time after the round starts, one or more random humans are turned into zombies. +Zombies have certain advantages as running faster and more health points. Humans have huge amounts +of ammo (or unlimited), and their bullets knock back zombies. A lot more attributes can be adjusted +for both zombies and humans in different classes.

+ +

2. Installation

+ +

1. Requirements

+

Zombie: Reloaded requires that the following stuff is installed on the server:

+
    +

  1. Metamod:Source - A simplified API for server plugins. It makes it easier for developers + to make plugins like SourceMod:

    +
    2. + +

  2. SourceMod - A scripting platform:

    +
    3. + +
  3. +

    ZRTools extension (bundled). Provides some extra functions needed by Zombie:Reloaded. + See Plugin Installation (2.2).

    +
    4. +
+ +

2. Plugin Installation

+

Extract the content of the zip file into "cstrike/" on the server.

+ +

This plugin is often confused by Zombie Mod, which is actually ovbious since +Zombie:Reloaded is a SourceMod alternative to Zombie Mod.

+ +

3. Test Run

+

The plugin should work with default configuration. Start the server and join a team. Once the +round starts there sould be some messages at the chat with "[ZR]". Or type "!zmenu" in the chat to +bring up the zombie menu to confirm that the plugin is running.

+ +

Next check error logs from SourceMod and look if there are any entries from "zombiereloaded.smx". +If the plugin doesn't work at all or there are error logs, see Troubleshooting at section 5.0.

+ + +

3. Configuration

+ +

1. Understanding Syntax

+

In this manual commands or paths may be written in a certain style that tells how to use it.

+ +

Note that the style itself is not written, but it's used as an indicator to tell if a parameter +is optional or not.

+ +

Example syntax of a command:

+

zr_class_modify <classname|"zombies"|"humans"|"admins"> <attribute> <value> [is_multiplier]

+ +

Some paths may look like:

+

cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/<mapname>.cfg

+ +

How to read syntaxes like this is explained below.

+ +

1. Optional Parameters

+ +

Optional parameters is not required and usually have a default value or action. They are marked +with brackets.

+ +

Example:

+

zr_somecommand [number]

+ +

Usage examples:

+

zr_somecommand
+ zr_somecommand 10

+

+ +

2. Required Parameters

+ +

Required parameters must be specified for the command to function. Usually if no parameters are +written the command replies with some info about the syntax.

+ +

Less than (<) and greather than (>) symbols marks required parameters.

+ +

Examples:

+

zr_somecommand <number>
+ zr_infect <target>

+ +

Usage examples:

+

zr_somecommand 100
+ zr_infect "unnamed"

+ +

3. Multiple Options In The Same Parameter

+ +

Some commands have parameters that support multiple pre defined options. +Usually it's specifying a name, a index or a predefined value. Each option is +separated by a "|" symbol. Only one of the options listed is used in a command.

+ +

Example:

+

zr_do_something <index|name|"all">

+ +

Usage examples:

+

zr_do_something 1
+ zr_do_something "all"
+ zr_do_something "unnamed"

+ +

4. Text As Parameters

+ +

Since parameters are separated by spaces, text (strings) should be quoted. It's a good habit to +do this on all string parameters to avoid parsing mistakes.

+ +

Example:

+

zr_infect "unnamed" "player"
+ zr_do_something "example text. test."

+ +

Example of bad usage:

+

zr_do_something example text. test.

+ +

The last example actually have 3 parameters while it should be only one. This may cause unexpected +results and is an example of why strings should be quoted.

+ + +

2. Configuration Files

+

These are the default configuration files. The paths are relative to the "cstrike" folder.

+ +
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
Type:File:
Main conf.cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/zombiereloaded.cfg
Map conf.cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/<mapname>.cfg
Post map conf.cfg/sourcemod/zombiereloaded/<mapname>.post.cfg
Hitgroup conf.addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/hitgroups.txt
Class conf.addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/playerclasses.txt
Weapon conf.addons/sourcemod/configs/zr/weapons.txt
Download listaddons/sourcemod/configs/zr/downloads.txt
Model listaddons/sourcemod/configs/zr/models.txt
+ +

The post map configuration file is executed after all features of ZR is done loading. Commands +that modify loaded data must be put in post configuration files. How to configure each file is +explained in their own sections.

+ + +

3. Logging

+ +

The log system used in Zombie:Reloaded is pretty powerful and customizable. It's based on +logging flags and a module filter.

+ +

The flags tell what kind of events to log. Those flags are stored as a numeric value in a bit +field where each bit tell wether to log a certain event or not. See +Bit field for technical details.

+ +

The module filter is a list of modules to enable log events from. This filter gives extra +control of what stuff to log. Use console commands below in the main configuration file to add or +remove modules to the filter.

+ +

These commands might not work properly until +bug 3828 in SourceMod is fixed. It's +a bug where console commands in plugin configuration files are executed late so a command like +zr_log_add_module is too late.

+ +

There are console variables for different log settings and exceptions. Place them in the main +configuration file.

+ +

Console variables:

+ +
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
Console variable:Default:
zr_log"1"
+

Enable logging of events in the plugin. Fatal errors or errors are independendt on + this setting and always logged.

+

Options:
+ 0 or 1

+
zr_log_flags"3"

+
zr_log_module_filter"0"
+

Enable module filtering. Only log events from listed modules will be logged. Use console + commands below to add or remove modules from the filter.

+

Options:
+ 0 or 1

+
zr_log_ignore_console"1"
+

Don't log events triggered by console that are executed by the console itself, like + commands in configs. Enable this command to avoid spamming logs with events like weapon + restrictions.

+

Options:
+ 0 or 1

+
zr_log_print_admins"0"
+

Print log events to admin chat in addition to the log file.
