valve breaks everything.. why do you think few people develop mods for the source engine?

It's like they "unintentionally" target what people like, then break it... I say "unintentionally" because if you ask then why they break it, they usually respond that it was "unintentional".

Guys, don't just complain about it. I mean, I know your pissed and I am too but lets try to find some constructive solutions. Someone already said that the update edits your gametypes or gameinfo txt file. So reediting your gameinfo/types would fix it.

Uh its actually your gameinfo.txt for clarification's sake. It is located in your server's cstrike folder.
If your gameinfo.txt is not set to "Read Only" then the new update would've rewritten it. Now all you have to do is put:
GameBin |gameinfo_path|addons/metamod/bin

before your "Game" entries and save. Now, go into the file's properties and check off read only. Now just restart your server.

I sincerely hope this helps.

That doesn't do anything on Windows servers. I have already re-installed metamod and zombiemod from scratch because they weren't working. Metamod is working, it shows up in HLSW, but when I type 'meta list' it says [03] [][][failed]. I really hope a new Zombiemod gets released soon.
I hope this post helps. Probably more so than the people that just said 'OMG teh z0mb133 m0d is brok3ddd.'
