Beta Tester Jay_ suggested I post this here, so I am ^.^

Updated for SA-MP 0.3.7-R2.
For this to work we will use the SampSharp - Write gamemodes in .NET plugin created by ikkentim.

Detailed Step-By-Step Instructions (with Screenshots):
Ubuntu users! Scroll down to see the Ubuntu instructions.
I am on Windows 10 64-bit, if you are on a different version of Windows some things may be different.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/8204b...fc01b6e60d.png

1. Make sure your Windows updates are up-to-date. (Control Panel > System & Security > Updates)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/23acb...dd3fd4920d.png

2. Make sure .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.6 are activated from the "Turn Windows features on or off" menu. (Programs and Features > Turn Windows features on or off)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/13826...1c7ae814fe.png

3. Make sure to have the latest Visual C++ Redistributable installed.
< No Screenshot because of update. >

4. Download and install Visual Studio 2017 RC. (You can use any .NET Framework IDE you want, suggested VS 2010+).
http://image.prntscr.com/image/75316...af9920ec97.png

5. Download the SA-MP 0.3.7-R2 Windows Server files. (Source: www.sa-mp.com/download.php)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/1d61e...cbe5a474eb.png

6. Download the SampSharp-0.7.6221.37952.zip files. (Source: https://github.com/ikkentim/SampSharp/releases/)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/ce063...e9acabc795.png

7. Download the mono-4.6 files. (Source: http://sampsharp.timpotze.nl/installation)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/b961b...5b87810e39.png

8. Make 'C:\MyGamemode', 'C:\MyGamemode\env', and 'C:\MyGamemode\src' folders.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/607c2...d3cce57a9f.png

9. Extract SA-MP files into the env folder so that the SA-MP executable is located 'C:\MyGamemode\env\samp-server.exe'.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/d1ee3...57a0837a62.png

10. Extract Mono files into the same env folder so that the mono-2.0.dll is located 'C:\MyGamemode\env\mono-2.0.dll'
http://image.prntscr.com/image/3120b...e7ae0ddb0e.png

11. Extract SampSharp files into the same env folder so that SampSharp.dll is located 'C:\MyGamemode\env\plugins\SampSharp.dll'
http://image.prntscr.com/image/d07b0...7b7eacaeab.png

12. Your env folder should look like the below screenshot.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/d07b0...7b7eacaeab.png

13. Now I would open 'C:\MyGamemode\env\server.cfg' and edit it to look similar to the below quote:
http://image.prntscr.com/image/58a5b...547645d5ec.png

Quote:

Detailed Step-By-Step Instructions on Ubuntu 32-Bit:
I am on Ubuntu 16.10 32-bit (should work for 64-bit too).
http://image.prntscr.com/image/cc4bb...097b46a95c.png
I created a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.10 just for this tutorial

1. Download and install MonoDevelop from the Software Center. (You can use any .NET Framework IDE you want, suggested Xamarin or MonoDevelop)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/0ec15...cd7958944f.png

2. Download the SA-MP 0.3.7-R2 Linux Server (x86) files. (Source: http://www.sa-mp.com/download.php)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/497e3...6df153482c.png

3. Download the libSampSharp.so.
(If you want to build the plugin yourself, download the source and follow these instructions)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/e2c71...d538132777.png

4. If you didn't download the SampSharp source on Step 3, download it now. (Don't worry you don't have to do any C/C++ compiling)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/0b38b...e52a8d481f.png

5. I'm going to put the 'MyGamemode' folder on the Desktop ('Home/Desktop/MyGamemode')
(NOTE: File and folder names on Linux are case sensitive!)
Within the 'Home/Desktop/MyGamemode' also create 'Home/Desktop/MyGamemode/env' and 'Home/Desktop/MyGamemode/src'
http://image.prntscr.com/image/1c358...90595b0f59.png

6. Extract the SA-MP files into the 'Home/Desktop/MyGamemode/env' folder.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/9a01b...9854f65df6.png

7. Move (or copy&paste) the libSampSharp.so file from your downloads to the 'Home/Desktop/MyGamemode/env/plugins' folder.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/92485...fcfe4f85d8.png

8. Open the SampSharp files and navigate to 'SampSharp-master/env', extract all the files into 'Home/Desktop/MyGamemode/env'.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/753d0...c17dec6496.png

9. In Ubuntu, open your Terminal and follow these instructions to install Mono on your machine.

Quote:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-xamarin.list sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install mono-complete

After following the instructions use the Terminal command 'mono --version' to check your version, it should match mine or be a higher version (v4.6.2+).

10. Open 'Home/Desktop/MyGamemode/env/server.cfg' and edit it to look similar to below:
http://image.prntscr.com/image/9e153...2264140430.png

Quote:

http://image.prntscr.com/image/b3834...0a7fcc0096.png

15. Right-click the second MyGamemode in the Solution menu and select Options.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/e1ccb...c3ad6dc345.png

16. Go to Build > Custom Commands, in the drop down select After Build, and match the screenshot's options.

23. Select SampSharp Framework and click Add Package. (Make sure Show pre-release packages is ticked!)
(Optional: If you are using Streamer Plugin by Incognito install SampSharp.Streamer extension for SA-MP# too)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/12074...dcbb4937b2.png

24. Rename 'MyClass.cs' to 'GameMode.cs'.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/83258...f8404ddb91.png

25. Replace the contents with the same contents from the Windows instructions [Step 29]. (I'm not double copying the code)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/5e967...c7e18c26a9.png

26. Press F7 on your Keyboard to build the project. CONGRATULATIONS it should have worked.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/071cd...df0b39d59c.png
(You can verify if it worked by going into 'Home/Desktop/MyGamemode/env/server_log.txt' where you will see the server output.)

27. Scroll down to see TIPS or if you're new to C# .NET programming.

OPTIONAL:
This option may only work on Windows, have not tried Ubuntu.
To make the Start button more useful in your code you can modify the OnInitialized override:
http://image.prntscr.com/image/57f7f...4ef2b69150.png
This will start the SA-MP client for the localhost every time samp-server.exe executes.
http://image.prntscr.com/image/2ec45...23f1591425.png

Код:

using System.Diagnostics;

Код:

        protected override void OnInitialized(EventArgs e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("\n----------------------------------");
            Console.WriteLine(" Blank Gamemode by your name here");
            Console.WriteLine("----------------------------------\n");

            /*
             * TODO: Do your initialisation and loading of data here.
             */
            base.OnInitialized(e);

            /*
             *   Start the client for localhost.
             */
            Console.WriteLine("Attempting to open the SA-MP client...");
            
            try
            {
                Process.Start(@"samp:\\127.0.0.1:7777");
                
                Console.WriteLine("SA-MP Client opened.");
            }
            catch(Exception ex)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("SA-MP Client did not open: {0}", ex.Message);
            }
            return;
        }

TIPS:
IntelliSense is available on Visual Studio and MonoDevelop The examples are in Visual Studio though.

Use IntelliSense (Visual Studio) to see what you can override ("callbacks"):
While in between the brackets {} of the GameMode : BaseMode class, type 'override ' and this will pop-up,
http://image.prntscr.com/image/8d183...9abe73b6b3.png

Use IntelliSense (Visual Studio) to see class methods (functions):
Type the instance of the class I.E. player and a period, 'player.', like so,
http://image.prntscr.com/image/0b1f4...4300ab4cc3.png
http://image.prntscr.com/image/542f9...51c7f16ad8.png (I used player.SendClientMessage)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/2e7eb...e01341e43c.png (In-game screenshot)

IntelliSense (Visual Studio) to customize OnPlayerDisconnect example:
http://image.prntscr.com/image/9d2be...b5640b040a.png (OnPlayerDisconnect)
http://image.prntscr.com/image/4c882...20bdbcbaba.png (Console)
