Yes it does.
Put the files of the add-ons in the folder of your gamemode
In the server.cs of your gamemode execute all those add-ons

Gamemode.txt enables add-ons in your add-ons folder, not in your gamemode folder. Or at least doing it the way in the reference does.

well that's not just putting them in the folder... And again that requires at least a little scripting knowledge, which I have zippity-doo-da of

If that is how it works though, what would I put in the server.cs? Do I just put the zip files of add-ons in the gamemode folder and then execute it with some line of code?

Zeblote:
You would extract the contents of the zips in subfolders, I'm not sure whether zips work, try it out
And because we have a ton of add-ons in there and are lazy we would put something like this in the server.cs

--- Code: ---%path = "add-ons/gamemode_stuff/*/server.cs";
for(%f = findfirstfile(%path); isfile(%f); %f = findnextfile(%path))
exec(%f);

--- End code ---

awesome, I'll try that. Thanks!

Mysteroo:
Didn't work :/
I replaced the asterisk with the add-on file name, and I tried both a zip file and a normal file. Then started the gamemode and checked to see if the item I enabled was there and it wasn't

Any other ideas?
