Hi, is there currently a way to load and unload plugins in game, without the use of another plugin to do so? I've searched and found some old forum posts going back to 2008 or so that indicate you could use "sm plugins unload <name>" , but that doesn't seen to work for me using the later versions of Sourcemod. Thanks for any help.

Works like a charm:

sm plugins unload mapchooser
[SM] Plugin MapChooser unloaded successfully.
sm plugins load mapchooser
[SM] Loaded plugin mapchooser.smx successfully.

To be clear, that is a server command, and not a client command. You must pass that through RCON.

in your rcon client (hlsw or what have you)

sm plugins unload mapchooser

in your game client, with rcon_password set (and possibly rcon_address)

rcon sm plugins unload mapchooser

in your client, while connected to a server where you have the RCON admin flag

sm_rcon sm plugins unload mapchooser

etc, etc, etc

If you have plugins what you want load it on example: specific map

Move your plugin into
...addons/sourcemod/plugins/disabled/pluginname.smx
- From this folder only, plugin would not load automatically when server start.
However you can load plugins from here manually.

Then, if want unload that plugin on "every" map, add in ...cfg/server.cfg
sm plugins unload disabled/pluginname

And in map config, what Cs:s have own system, not every HL2 game.
...cstrike/maps/cfg/de_dust2.cfg
sm plugins load disabled/pluginname

That makes sense. Thank you guys very much for clearing that up for me, I really appreciate it. I will try all of this out.

I do not understand... If the plugin is already in disabled folder, why

sm plugins unload disabled/pluginname

?

to unload it if it was enabled, but you now want it disabled

[Bacardi]

...after you have loaded plugin from disable folder, it will stay loaded after map changes.
I was telling in my post to load plugin on specific map, load it on one map only, not else maps

*edit
Of course! Use plugin cvar preferably if exist to enable/disable plugin.
