Hi i am new to this forum and i was just wondering am i allowed to edit the classes file to make the power levels so i can transform easier?
But not release it as like my own mod just so i can play around on my lan severs?

**IF YOU SAY YES READ THIS**
I go into the classes folder and i choose the player i want to transfrom easier
do i change the starting powerlevel e.i Cell Starting powerlevel 900,000 transform level 1,900,000 do i change it to starting power level 1,899,999
transform 1,900,000 and put the powerlevel multiplier to 0? (wateva that is)?

**IF YOU SAY NO READ THIS**
Sorry for wasting your time and esf rocks are you guys working on new transforms and people maybe? if so will they be in the next version?

Heh, the classes folder only contains information on each player class. The starting PL and PL multiplier values aren't read from this file, rather, they're hardcoded into the game. This file is just read and displayed in the class selection VGUI.

Nice poking around, though.

The multiplier is how much your transed pl is, relative to your untransed PL. In otherwords if you have a PL of 2,000,000 and a multiplier of 2 then your transed PL would be 4,000,000. If you set it to 0 then your transed PL would be 0 and you'd die instantly =D

It's policy to make you work for your powerlevel. There is, however, a third party powerlevel editor that uses AMXX.

If you can't find your answer here then you're probably better off on the AMXX forums themselves. I'd reccomend continuing discussion on this matter in that sticky.

So you don't piss your pants, I'll update this post with a over view how to set up an AMX mod, the old fashion way (how I do it).

It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

But I'm really tired + karate tournament tommorrow, so I'll update with a step by step guide on how to do AMX mods

Heh, maybe i'll even throw in pictures. Just wait until tommorrow : )

Editing....

K, heres the guide.

Step one:
Go to the download section in http://www.amxmodx.org and download the full install.


Step two:
Get done installing, blah blah blah. Run it, and get to the point where you see this:


I'll give you a quick low-down of what the main things are.

Steam Dedicated server: This is where when you want to run a server where you can have the server up using a program, and not ESF.

Steam Listen Server: This is where you open up ESF, goto create new game.

Step three: Select one of the dedicated or listen server. For this example, I used listen server. A menu of games will pop up. Select Earth's special forces.


Hit Next.

Step four: Let it install. After installation, goto your ESF folder and look at your amx folder (Steam/steamapps/youremail/half-life/ESF/addons/amxmodx)

Step five: To make things easier on yourself, goto the configs folder, and open the modules file in notepad.


Take off all the ; where theres a module. Heres mine.

Code:
; AMX Mod X Modules
; You can specify both linux & win32 modules here
; To enable a module, remove the semi-colon from the line

; ------------------------------
; Fun - provides extra functions
; ------------------------------
fun_amxx_i386.so
fun_amxx.dll
fun_amxx_amd64.so

; ----------------------------------------------------
; Engine - provides engine functions core to Half-Life
; ----------------------------------------------------
engine_amxx_i386.so
engine_amxx.dll
engine_amxx_amd64.so

; ----------------------------------------------------------
; Fakemeta - provides a massive interface into the HL engine
; ----------------------------------------------------------
fakemeta_amxx_i386.so
fakemeta_amxx.dll
fakemeta_amxx_amd64.so

; -------------------------------------------
; Database Access - only enable one of these
; -------------------------------------------
; MySQL
mysql_amxx_i386.so
mysql_amxx.dll
mysql_amxx_amd64.so
; PostgreSQL
pgsql_amxx_i386.so
pgsql_amxx.dll
; Microsoft SQL
mssql_amxx.dll
; SQLite
sqlite_amxx.dll
sqlite_amxx_i386.so
sqlite_amxx_amd64.so

; ---------------------------------------------
; GeoIP - determines the country of ip adresses
; ---------------------------------------------
geoip_amxx_i386.so
geoip_amxx.dll
geoip_amxx_amd64.so

; --------------------------------
; Sockets - network socket support
; --------------------------------
sockets_amxx_i386.so
sockets_amxx.dll
sockets_amxx_amd64.so

; --------------------------
; Regular Expression support
; --------------------------
regex_amxx_i386.so
regex_amxx.dll
regex_amxx_amd64.so

; --------------------
; Binary Vault support
; --------------------
nvault_amxx_i386.so
nvault_amxx.dll
nvault_amxx_amd64.so
Step six: Now we got to go get you a plug-in.

I wrote numbers, so follow along:

1. Click Plug-ins.
2. Go to Mods.
3. Go to Earth's Special Forces.
4. Click Search.

Step seven: For the example I'm using, I'm using the plug-in "ESF Powerlevel changer"


Step eight: Download both of these:


Step nine: You're almost there.

Go to your configs folder, shown above, and open the file plugins in notepad.


Step ten: In this folder, at the bottom you want to add the name of the .amxx file you downloaded earlier.

Code:
; Custom - Add 3rd party plugins here
esf_powerlevel_changer.amxx
It should look like that on the end.

Step eleven: go to your plugins folder, and put esf_powerlevel_changer.amxx in there.

Step twelve: Last step.

Go to your scripting folder, and put the esf_powerlevel_changer.sma in there.

Congradulations, you have it.

How to work this particular plugin
Inside console, you want to type:

esf_powerlevel "name" "number of PL you want"

So for example, if my name was Kaination in-game, and I wanted 10,000,000 PL, it'd be:

Esf_powerlevel "Kaination" "10000000"

And there you go. Have fun.

Also note... When you get other plugins, they usually tell you how to work it inside the description.

--------

There you go : )

Damn, took me 30 minutes to make but damn, do I feel accomplished o/

And so you should, that was quite a comprehensive guide =)

I was wondering though, why is your Steam folder called Steam-Down? o_O

I was never too sure, it was always like that for a long time. I was changing esf models one day and I realized that it was Steam-Down. =S

@swift - SHHHH1!H!

Just keeding, I play legally. How else would I have played ESF with others :O

@Barney's Soul - say you want to fool around with a friend and do PS. Or you can test yourself with high pl and experiment. Or have an unfair advantage, whatever you want :)
