Tutorial: How to add Admin Skins in Mani Mod. -HD-

[fuzygamer]

i have much better video right here

wwwDOTyoutubeDOTcom/watch?v=Xx­nG5tl96fk

[NPHaintgay]

and lastly there is no skins section in mani_server.cfg it must have changed i think its located in mani_skins.cfg, but i still cant seem to downlaod the files? can anyone help me plz

[NPHaintgay]

also what if the skin only came with the material folder for ct_urban, would i add the default ct_urban models in the ct_admin.txt "or as you would have it BlueMC.txt for downloading? ive tried without adding the default models but it doesnt seem to downlaod when i join the server? , i can provide link for skin if needed, it is a ct_urban skin, but i assume you already know that lol

[NPHaintgay]

I have a question, is it possible to downlaod a ct_urban skin and extract it to a custom folder so you dont have to replace the original ct_urban.vmt, ct_urban.vtf, ct_urban_glass.vtf ect for a custom admin skin?(with SRCDS ofcourse)

[joke788]

it gives me the option to use them in game but when i push 1 to use them they don't appear

[flendten]

[beefjerkygamingTV]

@02llewellynk

Sounds like you don't have every file to the skins linked.

And you must do the same thing you would do for the Admin skins but for the bots (the skin addon will come with the bot files).

[dutchkiller66]

[beefjerkygamingTV]

@dutchkiller66

1: Hmm, sounds like you're having a error in one of your CFG files on your server.

2: Make sure you have all the files for the skin in the correct folders and you have all the right paths pasted into the .txt file.

[MusicF4]

[uifr279]

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Make sure in the BlueMC.txt there's no slash / in front of the paths.

And in the Admin_CT.txt, make sure there's no slash / in front of the paths also.

[MapleGenesis]

My skin shows up as "Error" when in game, any solutions?

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Yeah, I know some.

Make sure that all your skins' files are installed in the correct areas, and check that there is no missing files.

[killervalonz]

Or your server isnt setup for Skin downloads.

Check mani_server.cfg

[tuguro3030]

hey i just bought a server and need help setting up my player/admin skins i got the halo mc skins and need help lol

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Alright, for starters watch the video from start to finish. Then comment back if you need any support.

[tuguro3030]

i did watch the vid did everything but then my server died and i sent in a support ticket and they said its because i installed the skins wrong lol

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Hmm, you most likely messed up on one of the parts of installing the skins. Tell me what happens when you run the server, or if you can't even start it.

[Simulki]

Give me the link of the skin Downloader please. Thank you !

[jikva]

That when you go in under Bic Map, and find all those ct_sas ehm how do i find them?

[beefjerkygamingTV]

You need to put those files in there to find them in the first place. So, I added them there.

[Spimatta]

I realy need help i installed a skin and did do that you did do but then i started server and that the skin only was an error!!!!

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Hmm, make sure you have all the files in the right spots and that you're not missing any.

[re4isfrickinawsome]

ive got mani admin plugin but mine didnt come with a skins file do u know y

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Well, you must download it off the Mani Admin mod site.

mani-admin-pluginDOTcom/mani_a dmin_plugin/skins/cstrike_skin s.zip

That's the full URL link to download the Zip File that contains the Skin Addon.

Make sure to replace the DOT with a period, like any other URL.

Oh yeah, make sure to take out the Spaces between some of the Text in the URL.

[Silenthawk98]

How would I add skins for the entire server, not just admin. so T and Ct have different skins?

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Same way but using the Public txt files and Folders in the Skin Addon, plus changing mani_skins_public 0 to mani_skins_public 1 in the cfg file named mani_server.cfg.

Oh yeah, we'll be making a Tutorial video on Adding Public skins soon.

[greenpwnies]

How to use the skin?

[alanaz123]

is there a way to install admin skins if your not the server owner.I have full admin

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Sadly, there is no way to add them if you don't got any sort of access to the FTP or Server files.

[Terroorr]

i dont get an skins menu to choose the skins BlueMC i must do setskin

[soulmate93]

in css i want to download death match to my server, can you please tell me how and where to get the file? thanks :)

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Sure! How about I make a tutorial video about it?

[soulmate93]

that would be great :D

[Maftec]

Aah that whould be awsome, thanks mate. (You got my Subsciption)

[Maftec]

Hello mate. I got this admin stuff realy great. All works, but there is somthing i wounder about. How do i make Reserved skin for only one player?. Ive tried everything but nothing :/ Would be great if you chould help me:)

[MaxCheesy]

how do you install public skins.

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Same way but using the Public txt files and Folders in the Skin Addon, plus changing mani_skins_public 0 to mani_skins_public 1 in the cfg file named mani_server.cfg.

[beefjerkygamingTV]

I'll make a video sometime soon about adding Public skins to a server.

[MaxCheesy]

Can you please make one real soon. Thank You.

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Sure thing, buddy.

[abcd616]

is this only for srcds servers. i have a remote server

[beefjerkygamingTV]

It's for any Counter-Strike Source server.

[UWLPancakes]

hey i have tried to add admin skins onto my server like 96 times but i have never worked so i just wonder wefer you can use "team viewer" to do for me?? (sorry my bad english - i am lithuanian)

[nikndyay]

i got the same problem! just that people can download it but i just cant acces it!

[beefjerkygamingTV]

You should go to your Counter-Strike Source game files on your computer and check if you don't have some of the files already installed in your game files. If so, delete them.

[nikndyay]

it didnt work..

i followed your tut straight away. except i used the fast config fom ics where all the text files were there.. i uncommented the admin_ct and admin_t and putted it into the right folders.. still doesnt work..

[lildave1258]

Dude Nikndyay, when your done typing the things he told you in your mani_server.cfg you have to launch your server then you hae to type this in console exec mani_server.cfg

After his is done make sure you go to your server, as soon as you join a menu will pop up, if it dosent just type settings in chat. Once the menu appears just Enable your skin.

[beefjerkygamingTV]

So you're asking if I would do it for you?

Using a FTP or something.

[Kuzimokol]

Dude when im doing it do i do this:

Put batman materials and models in the cstrike then i put it all the Materials and Models name thing. then i put it all in adminct and then put like this

// "Batman" Batman.txt

do i add the // or \\ please help me

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Hello there, let's see.

Remove the // in front of it, then it'll work fine most likely.

[Kuzimokol]

Ok umm thanks ill try it out if it dosent work ill tell you

[Kuzimokol]

It says Host_Error: Bad String:

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Hmm, another one of those errors. So let's fix it.

Make sure you have all the skin's files install on the server. And make sure Admin Mod and Skins Addon our both installed correct.

Plus check if the skins you're using are on the right teams.

[nikndyay]

I dont have acces to my skin menu i dont see the menu but people still download my skins!? wtf :///

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Okay, well make sure you have all the settings turn on in the mani_server.cfg file.

So go to part 4:30 of the video and follow all the steps.

[Kuzimokol]

I put mani admin plugins to Source Dedicated Server And then put the admin skins thing in there but it still dosent work

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Hmm, make sure the skins you're installing are in the right team. Nothing like a CT Skins on T Team.

[vaamaap]

can i install weapon skins on the server?

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Well, you can't really install weapon skins on a server. But you could most likely find a way around it, such as a script that forces players to download and use the skins.

Here's the thing, most people wouldn't really be happy if you force them to use your server's weapon skins.

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Please everyone rate this video five stars if it helps you out or if my support helps you out. Thank you!

[Bellebub]

Where do i download Mani Skin Addon?

[beefjerkygamingTV]

You can download it from Mani's Admin Mod main site. You'll see a link that says "Skins Config Addon Info (Link)", and it'll bring you to a forum with some links and click on the one for Counter-Strike Source (Cstrike) or which ever game you want it for.

[Bellebub]

But what is the URL for the main site? plz paste here ↓

[beefjerkygamingTV]

mani-admin-pluginDOTcom/mani_a­dmin_plugin/skins/cstrike_skin­s.zip

That's the full URL link to download the Zip File that contains the Skin Addon.

Make sure to replace the DOT with a period, like any other URL.

Oh yeah, make sure to take out the Spaces between some of the Text in the URL.

[Bellebub]

no matter, i found out how to do it myself! :D but thanks enyway

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Congratulations! Enjoy your newly added admin skins.

Oh yeah, you're very welcome.

[vaamaap]

Host_Error: Bad string:

And source dedicated server shutting down whats the problem?

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Okay, let's try to fix it.

Do you use Fast-Download?

Make sure you have all the skins' files install on the server. And make sure Admin Mod and Skins Addon our both installed correct.

Plus check if the skins you're using are on the right teams.

[TrummBandLomm]

What is these Extra path files?

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Which ones?

[VelocityGamerz]

Honestly  This video is all right,

[kaynettesheim]

yeah i mean te folder

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Alright then!

Well what you need to do is download it from Mani's Admin Mod main site. You'll see a link that says "Skins Config Addon Info (Link)", and it'll bring you to a forum with some links and click on the one for Counter-Strike Source (Cstrike) or which ever game you want it for.

[kaynettesheim]

mayb this is one lil problem but i don't have a skins map in my mani-admin map

what do i do now?

[beefjerkygamingTV]

What do you mean "Map"? Do you mean Folder?

[kiko1234974]

where can i download skins !

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Well there is a few great sites for skins. Such as Fpsbanana, and for Admin Skins go to ics-base. Enjoy!

[laterjongen]

hi,

I have a problem, I installed everything like in the vid. and when i'm on the server playing all i get is a ERROR sign instead of a skin..

Do you know how to fix this?

grtz

Ben

[mheedi2009]

you have a shity graphic card.. that is why .. or you instaled something wrong.. take a good look in the video and what u are doing.. : )

[beefjerkygamingTV]

Well there is a few things that could be wrong with the installment of the skin on the server.

But the one you should try first is to check if you have every file installed and if you have all the correct paths in the skin text file. And make sure that your clients can download the files, since it may be that no one can download them. Feel free to comment again if you still need help.

[Cal0wnsU]

Um ok

[tmnmingger]

where can i download mani skin addon?

[sirman125]

At Mani-Admin-Plugin Website

And it should be at the top-right

[beefjerkygamingTV]

You can download them by going to their main site and clicking on the link that says "Skins Config Addon Info (Link)", and it'll bring you to a forum with some links and click on the one for Counter-Strike Source (Cstrike) or which ever game you want it for.

[OlimnarStudio]
