metamod-fallguys

This is a modified version of metamod along with a group of metamod plugins mainly to provide server-side feature expansions for Sven Co-op.

This metamod is based on Bots-United's metamod-p

• Any third-party plugins such as amxmodx are still compatible with this modified version of metamod.

• You are welcome to request for any new hooks or server-side features which is not implemented by Sven Co-op team yet.

• Compatibility with other games (e.g. Counter-Strike) is not guaranteed as it's designed only for Sven Co-op.

The differences between this metamod and Bots-United's one ?

1. An older version of glibc (iirc it's 2.24, which is literally the glibc that linux build of Sven Co-op is using) is forced to be used in the makefile. The compiled binaries (.so) are portable now. No need to recompile them when running on an up-to-date linux distribution.

2. A fallback solution was added to mitigate a problem that GiveFnptrsToDll could not be found in plugin dll (This used to happen when plugin was compiled by a newer version of Visual Studio like VS2022). see also Bots-United/metamod-p#24

3. A couple of new APIs were added to mutil API set.

Installation

1. Download latest build (-windows or -linux depending on your OS) from GitHub Release, then unzip it.

2. Copy everything from the previously unarchived build directory into \steamapps\common\Sven Co-op\svencoop

• (Warning: neither svencoop_addon nor svencoop_downloads is supported)*

• The directory hierarchy should be something like this :

-- Sven Co-op (Sven Co-op Dedicated Server)
---- svencoop
------ addons
-------- metamod
---------- dlls
------------ asqcvar.dll (asqcvar.so)
------------ ascurl.dll (ascurl.so)
------------ asusermsg.dll (asusermsg.so)
------------ asext.dll (asext.so)
------------ fallguys.dll (fallguys.so)
---------- plugins.ini
---- svencoop_addons
---- svencoop_downloads
---- svencoop.exe (or svends.exe / svends_run.sh / svencoop.sh)

3. If you had installed metamod and metamod-plugins (which was loaded by metamod) from other sources such as Bots-United's metamod-p or jkivilin's metamod-p, you will have to add those metamod-plugins back to plugins.ini which might be overwritten in step (1).

4. You should either

• Use -dll addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll(Windows) or -dll addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.so (linux) as launch parameter to launch the game (launch the dedicated server)

or

• Edit Sven Co-op/svencoop/liblist.gam

and change

gamedll "dlls/server.dll"
gamedll_linux "dlls/server.so"

to

gamedll "addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll"
gamedll_linux "addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.so"

The edited liblist.gam should be something like this

• addons must be installed into /Sven Co-op/svencoop, neither /Sven Co-op/svencoop_addons nor /Sven Co-op/svencoop_download

• All plugins from this repository are not binary-compatible with metamod-p from other sources. You should always use metamod from metamod-fallguys to load those plugins.

• Other third-party plugins ( e.g amxmodx ) are still binary-compatible with metamod-fallguys. You don't have to re-compile them. Just put them in the plugins.ini.
