Install MatchZy
MatchZy requires Metamod, you can simply install MM in the webinterface (see picture). After you have installed and activated MM, you can install CounterStrikeSharp and MatchZy.
Activate CSS + MatchZy
The following image shows that after activating Metamod, CounterStrikeSharp (CSS) and MatchZy can now be installed. Please click here once on “Install” and the respective plugin will be activated and installed.
Note: To use all commands, you now only need to assign admins in the panel (alternatively, see MatchZy options “Every player is admin”). More on this under “Become a MatchZy admin”.

MatchZy Options
You can customize certain settings directly from the webpanel to your liking, see screenshot
- Knife Round: This can be used to deactivate the Knife Round by default, otherwise you can also deactivate the Knife Round for Match Mode yourself at any time using the .rk command and the .settings command can be used to check whether the Knife Round is active
- Every player is admin: This would give every player in the connected full admin rights.
- Smoke Color: If selected, every smoke in Prac/Tactic Mode will be thrown in the respective player color.
- Playout: So that you can play all rounds in scrim, you can preselect the settings here, otherwise you can also adjust the settings to your wishes in the game with the .playout command.
- Prac/Tactic mode: If you only play trainings, it might be useful if the server automatically starts in Prac/Tactics mode.
ADD Admin (become Admin)
You can become a MatchZy admin by adding yourself as an admin at CKRAS BOT, see here how you can do this: become admin
Example Webpanel - here you can add your Steam ID3 or SteamID64
[Example: HOW TO ADD ADMINS IN THE PANEL]
The admin.json can also be edited manually, you will find it on your FTP in the folder: /cs2/game/csgo/addons/counterstrikesharp/configs
If you have already added admins to the CKRAS BOT, you can skip this step as we have automatically added you as an admin to the server.
>> Note: MatchZy offers a variety of different admin options (root, map, prac, chat...), you can see them for yourself in their WIKI. << We recommand to use our CKRAS BOT ADD ADMIN because its fully integrated.
Disable Admin Function
The admin query (requirement) can also be toogled on/off in the panel or edited manually in the config.cfg (folder: /cs2/game/csgo/cfg/MatchZy).
If you want to deactivate the admin query, you can use the toogle as mentioned or manually edit this line in the config file.
matchzy_everyone_is_admin <true or false>
- true everyone is admin
- false only admins added in the admin.json or added via ADD ADMIN can execute cmds
Configuring Warmup/Knife/Live/Prac CFGs
If you want to integrate your own configs into MatchZy or edit the existing files, we will show you below what you need to do. (FTP)
Advanced:
You can edit the Configs from the Plugin, inside csgo/cfg/MatchZy (FTP), files named warmup.cfg, knife.cfg, live.cfg and prac.cfg
These configs are executed when Warmup, Knife, Live and Practice Mode (!prac) is started respectively.
You can modify these files according to your requirements.
If these configs are not found in the expected location, MatchZy/CKRAS BOT executes the default configs which are present in the code.

(Screenshot CKRAS BOT !help output in Chat, by Default available)
(Screenshot: This is the default display of the commands of MatchZy without our CKRAS BOT, command .help or !help)
Bindings
TIPP: To use bindings for cmds you can use the following examples.
bind <key> css_rcon sv_rethrow_last_grenade
bind <key> say .clear
NOTE: If you do not want to activate the CKRAS BOT and do not need the additional HELP Chat menu, you can also deactivate the CKRAS BOT in the webpanel at any time, so the full range of MatchZy functions will still be available to you (expect !nade menu).
Additional Information Regarding Demos:
TIPP: Demos are recorded automatically with MatchZy installed/activated if your TV is activated, but you can start demos manually via Chat CMDs aswell!
For CSTV demo we added the Commands to manually record with !tvrecord (alias: !record) !tvstop to start/stop a CS2 Demo (see commands above) (please get sure that tv_enable 1 is set in your server.cfg), the demo is stored in the default ftp-folder: /cs2/game/csgo or in the MatchZy folder regarding your Settings.
Please note that the CSTV / GOTV server can crash, we hope that Valve will bring a fix here soon.
