Author: R. Jung

The zBlock addon become stable and restored the compability with the latest source engine updates from valve. We restored the addon on all gameserver. If you ecounter any problems with the latest plugin please report to our root admin General.Jung or any game administrative member of our Community.

zBlock 4.5 released

We finialized the Stability Tests, we decided to remove ZBlock for while till the devs reworked it. But we will try to run the server with the MAP loaded via metamod instead of VSP. We hope the server will run stable. Thanks for you patience.

It seems that the MAP (Mani Admin Plugin) and ZBlock cause the problems in conjunction with the latest Engine Updates. We removed these plugins and finalizing the test. Tanks for your patience.

Update: The Developers of MAP released a new version of its favorite Plugin.

Updated gametypes.txt to reenable support for HL2- DM and all other gamemods

zBlock RC crash with latest game update

We just started the MAP (mapvotes), for further testings in the next hours till 1900 UTC. Next steps would be the ban and the ranking system. Thanks for your patience.

Update: The server crashed again, so it seems that the MAP is causing the problem. We will now do test with sourcemod. If all stability test fails then we will let you play over the weekend without any plugins, because it seems that the server runs stable without plugins.

We currently testing the metamod for the next 4 hours, if the complete with no major problems, then we will restart the server around 1800 UTC with Mani Admin Plugin. Stay tuned for the next blog after the test completed. Thanks for your patience.
