What I posted below has some problems

Well, I have done very stupid thing in creating my deathmatch server. Since i had some problems in an earlier installed mod I have put gun game mod on top of the CSDM mod. After that the DM mod also worked fine. If you do the installing according to the below instructions you will get a gun game not a deathmatch server. You can make the below gun game mod a deathmatch but the mod doesn't contain any preset spawn points so you'll be re spawned in the original spawn points. This will be a disadvantage for one side.
To avoid this I recommend coping the preset spawn point configs(whole csdm folder inside configs) from the CSDM mod(You can get this mod from this link I think CSDM core files will be enough if you have already installed amxmod, but if you have not installed it just download the CSDM with AMX and just extract it into the cstrike folder) and pasting it in the configs folder in the amxmodx.
Then put this line inside the gungame.cfg.
spawnmode = preset
Make sure that
gg_dm 1
gg_dm_spawn_random 1
If you do these you will have a gun game deathmatch mod. Which is really cool!!
If you want only deathmatch I think that putting CSDM mod will be enough.
Make sure that gg_dm_spawn_random is "1" otherwise you will spawn in the original spawn points.
Hope this solved the problem.

How to Create a Deathmatch Server in Counter Strike 1.6

  When i wanted to make a Deathmatch server (DM), I found out that there is no proper site to tell how exactly to do so. With great difficulty I gathered information from various site and put it together and created a DM server.
  There is a software called AMX Mod X you can download the latest version(1.76d).
  • Download "AMX Mod X Full Installer" from http://www.amxmodx.org/
  • When installing select the "Select mod directory" and install it in cstrike folder.
  • Then go to this site - http://mods.counter-strike.com/
  • There you can find many mods for CS 1.6 and CS:S
  • If you want create a Deathmatch game I would recommend to get the gun game mod since CS Deathmatch that i got from a another site gave some problems (I don't know if this gives the same problems)
  • Then extract this to cstrike folder in CS.
  • In the gun game page you will find all the necessary adjustments that you have to do in simple and understandable manner.
  • You'll also find the quick commands that you can do while in the game.
Well, hope this gives the information required to put up a DM server. If you have any problems just put up a comment.
