Milko: /* FTP Installations */

This guide will help you install [[AMX Mod X]] using the automated installer. The automated installer can install to a local server (listen or dedicated) and even servers over FTP.

=Downloading=
#The automated installer is downloadable from [http://www.amxmodx.org/downloads.php AMX Mod X Downloads], under "AMX Mod X Full with Installer".
#Run the executable. It will unpack itself and a few tools (such as [[AMX Mod X Studio]]).

=Running=
*Go to Start, Programs, AMX Mod X, and click on the "AMX Mod X" item. The installer will launch as seen below:

*Click "Next" to continue.

==Choosing an Install Method==
[[Image:Installer_Types.jpg|right]]
You have an option of five different installation types. These are:
*Steam Dedicated Server - a server started from your Steam Dedicated Server menu
*Steam Listen Server - a [[listen server]] whereby your client is the server
*Standalone Server - a local server not started from the steam menu (for example: C:\HLServer)
*Select mod directory - manual installation selection
*FTP - your server must be accessed through FTP
 
 
===FTP Installations===
If you use [[FTP]], you will be presented with a dialog to enter your [[FTP]] information. If successful, you will then have to choose your mod folder. In the example on the right, "cstrike" would be selected for "Counter-Strike". Also, make sure to select the correct operating system and verify the addon name.

===Local Installations===

If you install to a local computer, you will simply get a list of the detected mods. Select which one you want to install to.
 
==Upgrading==
If an AMX Mod X installation was already detected, you will be asked if you want to upgrade. If you upgrade, only binaries will be updated (your configuration will be preserved).

==Addons==
After the installation, if your mod has a supported addon package, you will be asked if you want it installed. It is recommended that you choose yes.

=Finalizing=
After the installation is done, check to make sure AMX Mod X is working by restarted your server and typing "meta list" in the [[server console]]. If it doesn't work, look to [[Troubleshooting AMX Mod X]]. Otherwise, move on to [[Configuring AMX Mod X]].
