How to Insall if using the SDK base fix
« on: November 25, 2006, 10:13:46 PM »
OK so I started playing Gmod and I wanted to get some admin commands and I found this one on the Garrys mod forums.  So I downloaded it and extracted it to where it told me to in the read-me then followed the directions on the front page of your website but where it says
"IMPORTANT:
If you are using the fix for the earlier VALVe update (found here), then you must copy and paste the addons folder to the
(Your Steam Account Name)/source sdk base/hl2/ directory as well."
but i dont have a source sdk base folder nor does it work the way i have it installed now.  Could anyone guide me through the installation of this?

This also applies to ULX i just figured double posting in both sections would be useless

You can't play it with the fix without the source sdk directory...

Make sure you're looking in the <your steam account> directory and not the SourceMods directory

I found a better way to do it anyways. Go to ulib_plugin.vdf in gmod9/addons and replace the text in there with this:
Code: [Select]
"Plugin"
{
        "file" "../../../sourcemods/gmod9/addons/ulib_plugin"
}

(You'll have to open the file in notepad)
