Extract to /tf/addons not just tf. Basically, the vdf and sop_stb folder must end up in your addons folder. You will have to restart your server if you want it to automatically load. You can load it without restarting by issuing the following console command: plugin_load ../tf/addons/sop_stb/bin/sop_stb
If you load it from the console command, you will have to change map before it has any effect. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chris Oryschak Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2009 10:48 AM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Possible Host_Error crash fix Do I just extract all the contents of the zip to the /tf/ folder and changemap so the mod loads? ________________________________ From: [email protected] on behalf of Chris Sent: Thu 2/26/2009 1:29 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Possible Host_Error crash fix All 11 of my tf2 servers (rotation, dedicated pl servers and other cp maps) have not crashed after installing this plugin.
