After installing and running the Counter Strike server, you need to take care of its administration. The built-in tools lack functionality and flexibility, so it's best to use a third-party plugin to make managing your server easier.
Necessary
a computer with a CS server installed
Instructions
Step 1
Download the latest version of the plugin to your computer. To do this, go to the browser at the link https://mani-admin-plugin.com, scroll down to the first news, select the full version of the plug-in for the game from the list of links. Download the file to any folder, unzip it. Copy the resulting folders to the directory with the Counter Strike server installed to install the mani admin plugin. If everything is done correctly, then in the c: / server / cstrike / addons directory you will have the mani_admin_plugin.dll file.
Step 2
Reboot the server to run the mani admin plugin. Then enter the plugin_print command in the server console. A list of installed plugins will be displayed, including the Mani Admin Plugin. If not, check that the files were copied correctly.
Step 3
Configure the Mani Admin plugin. To do this, go to the cstrike / cfg / mani_admin_plugin directory, open the actionsoundlist.txt file using Notepad, and write down the actions that will cause the players to play a certain sound file, for example, when they enter the server. To add admin menu items, edit the cexeclist_all.txt file. Add a list of server administrators, user groups and clients in the clients.txt file. Use the basic action scheduler in the crontablist.txt file to automatically execute certain commands.
Step 4
Open the mani_server.cfg file with Notepad. It contains the basic settings for server administration. Decide on the desired settings and enter them in the appropriate sections of the file. For all the parameters to take effect, add the line exec mani_server.cfg at the end of the configuration file and save the changes.
