MetaMod

From HLSW Wiki

Metamod is a plugin/DLL manager that sits between the Half-Life Engine and an HL Game mod, allowing the dynamic loading/unloading of mod-like DLL plugins to add functionality to the HL server or game mod. Metamod is developed by willday

Metamod-P is enhanced version of Metamod. It has dynamic link-entities and automatic detection of Mod DLL and other improvement to allow it work with future Half-Life Engine updates and new Mods and updates. Metamod-P is developed by Jussi Kivilinna (evilspy)

What is special in this version of Metamod-P?

• Hardcoded linkents have been replaced with dynamic linkents. No large list of entities that get outdated fast as new mods come and old ones update.
  
• Extra enginecallback function slots, for future engine updates. Valve have to add 128 new functions before Metamod-P gets out of date.
  
• Autodetects gamedll for unknown/new mods (so you don't have to use metamod-config to make Metamod-P work on those mods).
  
• Because of reasons above, you basicly never need to update metamod again anymore. This works all future mods and updates.
  
• Better performance/less CPU usage than original Metamod.
