 Existing SourceMod plugins are not guaranteed to work and may require special steps or patching to get working.
+==== Installing the patched TF Tools extension ====
+Many plugins depend on the built-in TF Tools extension that comes with Sourcemod. This isn't compatible with TF2C. Instead, we can use a patched version of the extension which enables the use of many plugins.
+There's currently no public download link for this extension. After joining the Team Fortress 2 Classified Discord server you can find the files you need in [this message https://discordapp.com/channels/196337717267791874/1011914229307166780/1467172013637636327]. Specifically, you need <code>game.tf2.ext.2.tf2.so</code> and <code>sm-tf2.games.txt</code>.
+First, we'll need to disable automatic game data updating to prevent our gamedata file from being removed.
+<pre>
+$ nano ~/classified/tf2classified/addons/sourcemod/configs/
+<pre>
+Replace <code>"no"</code> in this part of the file with <code>"yes"</code>
+<pre>
+        /**
+         * Enables or Disables SourceMod's automatic gamedata updating.
+         *
+         * The default value is "no". A value of "yes" will block the Auto Updater.
+         */
+        "DisableAutoUpdate"                     "no" // Change to "yes"
+</pre>
+Next we'll add both the gamedata file and the plugin to our installation.
+<pre>
+$ mv $WHEREVER_YOU_PUT_IT/sm-tf2.games.txt ~/classified/tf2classified/addons/sm-tf2.games.txt
+$ mv $WHEREVER_YOU_PUT_IT/game.tf2.ext.2.tf2.so ~/classified/tf2classified/addons/extensions/x64
+</pre>
+Finally, create an empty file so that the extension is automatically loaded.
+<pre>
+$ touch ~/classified/tf2classified/addons/sourcemod/extensions/game.tf2.autoload
+</pre>
