How To Install Plugins For Your CSS Server

Installing plugins on your Counter-Strike: Source server can enhance gameplay and add new features. Game Host Bros makes it easy to enable SourceMod, which is required for most plugins.

How To Enable SourceMod

1. Log in to the Game Host Bros Panel and select your server.
2. Navigate to Configuration > Startup Parameters in the left sidebar.
3. Find the Enable Sourcemod option and change its value to 1.
4. Restart your server.

How To Install Plugins

Once SourceMod is enabled, you can start adding plugins to your server:

1. In the sidebar go to Management > File Manager.
2. Navigate to the cstrike/addons/sourcemod/plugins/ directory.
3. Upload your plugin files (usually ending in .smx) to this directory.
4. Restart your server or use the sm plugins refresh command in the server console.

How To Install Extensions

Some plugins require additional extensions to function properly. Here’s how to install them:

1. In the file manager, go to the cstrike/addons/sourcemod/extensions/ directory.
2. Upload the extension files (ending in .so for Linux) to this directory.
3. If the extension came with a .cfg file, upload it to cstrike/cfg/sourcemod/.
4. Restart your server.

Always make sure you’re using extensions compatible with Linux and your SourceMod version.
