How to Setup the Deathmatch Game Mode on your CS:GO Server

The Deathmatch plugin allows server owners to create a more polished Deathmatch game mode on community servers.

Important: Your CS:GO server must be using the SourceMod + MetaMod server type to use admin permissions. Please follow this guide, for instructions on how to accomplish this.
