File not Found liblist.gam in AMX Mod X installtion and Editing liblist.gam file for Metamod installation

AMX MOD X Installation Error:
What:
Firstly when you see an error like this "File not found liblist.gam". This mostly means that you are making Amx Mod x Installtion.

Why:
And in this installtion you have given the wrong directory while installation. You should give the correct path. That is Cstrike or Czero or Valve, which ever you want to install in.

Verify:
The result of the installation is a creation of folder called addons in which ever parent folder given. The addons folder should be in Cstrike or Czero or Valve.

Editing liblist.gam file:
What:
You need to bother about this when you are trying to install metamod yourself, with out any installation package.

How:
You might have copied the metamod.dll in "cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls\", if not do it. If you are not able to see those folders. Create them from addons to dlls.

Now open the file liblist.gam in cstrike folder or czero folder, based on the mod you are installing, whether CS1.6 or CSCZ. Open the file with notepad or wordpad.

You will see a line like this gamedll "dlls\mp.dll". Change it to this gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll". Thats it. And Both lines must not be kept in the file.

This step is optional
Add a file plugins.ini in addons\metamod folder. This will be useful later for other package installations which run over metamod like podbot, statsme, amx mod, admin mod, clanmod etc.
