    Here, all updates/changes made to our ZE server will be posted.

    --- original post below ---
    The following changes have been performed:
    - Updated grenade effects (the one performing freezes when you throw a smoke) to a CS:GO version (fixes some issues)
    - Added !guns/!weapons menu, which automatically opens on spawn, allowing you to save weapon preferences.
    This should make "rollouts" faster

    Considering:
    - Adding a HP bars plugin - https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=274788
    Please comment below if you want to see this plugin!

    I think the HP bar plugin would be cool and somewhat useful, however I think it might become to cluttered according to the screenshots. I am sure up for a test if it is not too much effort to add this plugin :).

    I think it's a must-have plugin. Please, add it :)

    As for the plugin, won't probably happen before the holiday season is over, that's when I remove the santa model (and free up the precache table).
    Otherwise the server might crash a lot more frequently.

    This is strange.. I played on a server with full !zmarket working (~15 custom models, player/grenade trails, glasses, wings, chat colors) and HP bars plugin, and it wasn't crashing. There were lots of red errors in the console, but somehow it still worked :D

    The red errors occur when the model/material doesn't exist, so it (most likely) also doesn't get added to the table.
    Also note that the limit was reduced (well not actually reduced, but Valve added more of their stuff in) with the winter update.

    Franc1sco from AlliedModders released his improved version of the zombiereloaded plugin 5 days ago, you might want to replace the current one:

    EDIT: actually, no, don't use it. I'm getting errors with models and sounds (tried on a virtual machine).

    Others have reported problems with it too.
    May consider once it 's working properly (if not only for the countdown sounds).

    Oh, it was actually me being dumb. I updated all the files except the .smx itself, lol. Everything seems to work fine now.

    Also, how did you manage to fix "Can't create mixer" sound problems after the last CS:GO update if you're not using this latest plugin? Or you use some sort of old metamod/sourcemod/zombiereloaded combination?

    I will continue testing and tweaking my local server.

    Franc1sco franug, wow, good to see you here, man!

    n0name, may I ask what "gun menu" plugin you are using on f-o-g? I tried to find it on AM but failed.

    UPD: found it. I didn't know I can do "sm plugins" on other servers too xD

    "SM Franug Weapons" (3.0 by Franc1sco franug) by Franc1sco franug (https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=2358999)

    By the way, 3.1 is the latest version :D

    Hey, n0name, may I ask what these two of your plugins do?

    [CS:GO] Suppress Messages (1.1b) by n0:name
    [CS:GO] Map Message Highlighter (1.0) by n0:name

    If I'm not mistaken, the second plugin strips out "CONSOLE: " from output, looks for any special symbols like >>> and ** and automatically changes their color to red, right? And changes the color of the rest of the text to lime (or light green).

    Also, what happens if there are no special symbols around messages, do you add some default ones?

    The first one lessens the chatbox spam by stripping disconnect and improving connect messages.
    On the second one you are right. If it doesn't find any '>' or '*', it will just print out the message in default colors.

    That's great. I always thought those "ReadMe=>" or "INFO: " messages are unnecessary, they only eat the space and make it harder to read the instructions.
