==Adding an Admin==
+
{{LanguageSwitch}}
−
First, open the amxmodx/configs/users.ini file with your favorite text editor.  Scroll to the bottom.  Admin entries are stored with four options: Authentication, Password, Access Right, Connection Properties.
+
 
 +
 
 +
=Admins=
 +
See the section on [[Adding Admins (AMX Mod X)|Adding Admins]] for more information.
  
−
In the early days of [[Half-Life 1]] it was common to have admins authenticate by name.  However, now it is recommended to auth by steamid.  An example of a typical admin entry is:
+
=Plugins=
−
<pre>"STEAM_0:0:123456" "" "abcdefghijklmnopqrstu" "ce"</pre>
+
==Installing==
−
Entries are one-per-line, and each of the four options are space separated, contained in double-quotes.  This one means:
+
Often, plugins will have their own directions if they need special installation requirements.  However, this will instruct you on the basics of adding a plugin.
−
#The user has [[SteamID]] STEAM_0:0:123456
+
#Follow any directions the plugin author has given you. If the plugin requires extra steps or special files, make sure you have them in the proper place and order.
−
#The user has no password (steamid-authentication)
+
#If you are given a .sma source file instead of a .amxx, you must compile the plugin yourself.  For more information, see [[Compiling Plugins (AMX Mod X)]].
−
#Access rights are levels <tt>a</tt> through <tt>u</tt>
+
#Place the plugin's .amxx file in the addons/amxmodx/plugins folder.
−
#The user is a steamid ("c") and has no password ("e")
+
#Add the plugin's name to addons\amxmodx\configs\plugins.ini. Example: <pre>myplugin.amxx</pre>
 +
#Change map or restart the server. If the plugin has any load errors, see [[Troubleshooting AMX Mod X#Plugins|Troubleshooting AMX Mod X]].
  
−
It is also possible to authenticate by username:
+
==Removing==
−
<pre>"BAILOPAN" "mypass" "abcdefghijklmnopqrstu" "a"</pre>
+
#Remove the entry from addons\amxmodx\configs\plugins.ini by deleting it or prepending a semi-colon to comment it out.
 +
#Delete any associated files.
  
−
To authenticate, BAILOPAN would put this in his client's autoexec.cfg, where "_pw" is the value of "amx_password_field" in [[amxx.cfg]].
+
==Default Plugins==
−
<pre>setinfo "_pw" "mypass"</pre>

=Modules=
 +
Modules add additional functionality for plugins to use.
 +
==Installing==
 +
#Figure out what operating system your server is: Windows, Linux, or Linux using AMD64 (64bit).
 +
#If the module is 3rd party, download the module corresponding to your OS.  It will end in .dll for Windows, _i386.so for Linux, or _amd64.so for AMD64.
 +
#Place the file in addons/amxmodx/modules/ and follow any additional instructions.
 +
#If the module is already in addons/amxmodx/configs/modules.ini, remove the ';' next to its name to enable it.
 +
#Otherwise, add the module's name to modules.ini. [[AMX Mod X]] supports generic notation, for example: <pre>mysql_amxx</pre> ... will automatically detect the correct module to use.
 +
#To see if the module is working, you can type <tt>amxx modules</tt> in your [[server console]].
  
−
{{qnotice|'''Note:''' It is important that you do not use the 'z' flag for admins.}}
+
==Removing==
 +
#Remove the entry from addons\amxmodx\configs\modules.ini by deleting it or prepending a semi-colon to comment it out.
 +
#Delete any associated files if you don't need them.

+
==Default Modules==
−
Find the admin's entry in your amxmodx/configs/users.ini file, and put a semicolon in front of it. For example:

AMX Mod X lets you store admin accounts in a MySQL database.  This is ideal if you have multiple servers with common administrators.

=Maps=
 +
 +
==Map Cycle==
 +
If you use the mapsmenu plugin, you can either use "maps.ini" or "mapcycle.txt" to manage map rotations.
 +
 +
Delete "maps.ini" to use mapcycle.txt, otherwise, simply add a list of map names to maps.ini like so:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
; Maps configuration file
 +
; File location: $moddir/addons/amxmodx/configs/maps.ini
 +
; To use with Maps Menu plugin
 +

</pre>
 +
 +
* Note: This is the default maps.ini for the CS package 1.76d
 +
 +
==Map Config Files==
 +
For each map, you can also add a configuration file that will execute when the map loads. This is useful to set certain settings for 3rd party maps, say, removing the freeze time on fy_iceworld.
 +
 +
To do this, simply create a folder in amxmodx/configs called "maps" and place a .cfg file named after the map with the settings in it, for example, you might have amxmodx/configs/maps/fy_iceworld.cfg:
  
−
Make sure your username and password have access that to the given database and table.  Then, open your amxmodx/configs/plugins.ini.  Comment out "admin.amxx" and enable "admin_sql.amxx":
+
<pre>
−
<pre>;admin.amxx
+
mp_startmoney 16000
−
admin_sql.amxx
+
mp_freezetime 0
−
...</pre>
+
mp_timelimit 20
 +
sv_downloadurl "http://YourFastDownload1.com/cstrike"  //for different Download URL other then default
 +
</pre>
  
−
==Maintaining Admins==
+
Be sure to include the following line into your server.cfg. This ensures that you go back (or fall back on) to your default server settings. It is suggested that anything you place in custom config files are also put in your server.cfg or amxx.cfg (at default settings) for best use of this feature.
−
Once the server loads for the first time, it will automatically create the table specified with <tt>amx_sql_table</tt>.
 
  
−
You can either add an admin through an SQL tool like an SQL Console or phpMyAdmin, or you can add an admin [[Adding Admins (AMX Mod X)#Through Console|using amx_addadmin]].
+
<pre>
 +
mapchangecfgfile server.cfg
 +
</pre>
  
−
If you choose to use SQL directly (or an interface), you must learn the table layout.  There are four columns, each corresponding to one of the four properties listed above in [[#Adding an Admin]]. For example:
+
As of [[AMX_Mod_X_1.8.0_Changes|AMX Mod X 1.8.0]], you are now able to create config files for map prefixes. To do this, create a file called prefix_<prefix>.cfg, where <prefix> would mean de, cs, awp, surf, ect. All prefix config files go in the same location as per map, the amxmodx/configs/map/ directory.
−
<pre>INSERT INTO admins VALUES("STEAM_0:1:23456", "", "abcdefghijklmnopqrstu", "ce");</pre>
 
  
−
{{qnotice|'''Note:''' It is important that you do not use the 'z' flag for admins.}}
+
<pre>
 +
configs/maps/prefix_de.cfg  - Would run on any de_* map.
 +
configs/maps/prefix_cs.cfg  - Would run on any cs_* map.
 +
</pre>
  
−
For information on what access levels mean, see [[AMX Mod X Access Levels]].
+
Configuration files are map prefix first (prefix_de.cfg) and map configuration second (de_dust2.cfg).
  
 +
For Counter-Strike, you can restrict certain weapons using these config files. It requires the restmenu.amxx plugin to be enabled on your server (usually is by default). You can find more information on how to do this here.
  
 +
http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=6516
  
−
=Plugins=
+
==Map Specific Plugins==
 +
Each map can have a specific plugins.ini file for which it will load on map change.  This plugins file will be loaded in addition to the standard plugins.ini file.
 +
 
 +
The file is to be located at ''amxmodx/configs/maps/plugins-mapname.ini'' For example, for de_dust you would create the file '''amxmodx/configs/maps/plugins-de_dust.ini'''
 +
 
 +
In addition, a plugin can be tagged as "''disabled''" which will prevent this plugin from being loaded.  You accomplish this the same way you tag a plugin as debug mode, by entering the word ''disabled'' after the plugin name in the file, which will prevent it from being loaded for that map. 
 +
 
 +
For example, if you wanted the map de_dust to disable the plugin ''ham.amxx'' and enable the plugin ''pickle.amxx'' you would put this in ''amxmodx/configs/maps/plugins-de_dust.ini'':
 +
 
 +
<pre>
 +
ham.amxx disabled
 +
pickle.amxx
 +
</pre>
 +
 
 +
'''Note:''' This feature was added in [[AMX_Mod_X_1.76_Changes|AMX Mod X 1.76]]
 +
 
 +
As of [[AMX_Mod_X_1.8.0_Changes|AMX Mod X 1.8.0]], you are now able to create plugin.ini files for map prefixes. To do this, create a file called plugins-<prefix>.ini, where <prefix> would mean de, cs, awp, surf, ect. All prefix config files go in the same location as per map, the amxmodx/configs/map/ directory.
 +
 
 +
<pre>
 +
configs/maps/plugins-de.ini - Would enable/disable any plugins for all de_* maps.
 +
</pre>
  
 +
Plugin based configuration files are loaded by map first (plugins-de_nuke.ini) and prefix second (plugins-de.ini).

Admins

See the section on Adding Admins for more information.

Plugins

Installing

Often, plugins will have their own directions if they need special installation requirements. However, this will instruct you on the basics of adding a plugin.

  1. Follow any directions the plugin author has given you. If the plugin requires extra steps or special files, make sure you have them in the proper place and order.
  2. If you are given a .sma source file instead of a .amxx, you must compile the plugin yourself. For more information, see Compiling Plugins (AMX Mod X).
  3. Place the plugin's .amxx file in the addons/amxmodx/plugins folder.
  4. Add the plugin's name to addons\amxmodx\configs\plugins.ini. Example: 
    myplugin.amxx
  5. Change map or restart the server. If the plugin has any load errors, see Troubleshooting AMX Mod X.

Removing

  1. Remove the entry from addons\amxmodx\configs\plugins.ini by deleting it or prepending a semi-colon to comment it out.
  2. Delete any associated files.

Default Plugins

Plugin Purpose
admin.amxx Administration Base
admin_sql.amxx Administration Base for SQL. Use only one base.
admincmd.amxx Basic administration commands (such as kick/slap).
adminhelp.amxx Help for admin commands.

Modules

Modules add additional functionality for plugins to use.

Installing

  1. Figure out what operating system your server is: Windows, Linux, or Linux using AMD64 (64bit).
  2. If the module is 3rd party, download the module corresponding to your OS. It will end in .dll for Windows, _i386.so for Linux, or _amd64.so for AMD64.
  3. Place the file in addons/amxmodx/modules/ and follow any additional instructions.
  4. If the module is already in addons/amxmodx/configs/modules.ini, remove the ';' next to its name to enable it.
  5. Otherwise, add the module's name to modules.ini. AMX Mod X supports generic notation, for example: 
    mysql_amxx
    ... will automatically detect the correct module to use.
  6. To see if the module is working, you can type amxx modules in your server console.

Removing

  1. Remove the entry from addons\amxmodx\configs\modules.ini by deleting it or prepending a semi-colon to comment it out.
  2. Delete any associated files if you don't need them.

CVARs

The base CVARs AMX Mod X defines are located in amxmodx/configs/amxx.cfg. You can edit these the same way you edit the server.cfg file:

CVAR Default Setting Purpose

SQL

Make sure you have mysql_amxx enabled in AMX Mod X's amxmodx/configs/modules.ini file.

Then, open amxmodx/configs/sql.cfg and edit the cvars accordingly:

CVAR Default Setting Purpose
amx_sql_host "127.0.0.1" IP address of SQL server.
amx_sql_user "root" Username to connect to the SQL server.

  • Note: amx_sql_type as of AMXX 1.75

Maps

Map Cycle

If you use the mapsmenu plugin, you can either use "maps.ini" or "mapcycle.txt" to manage map rotations.

Delete "maps.ini" to use mapcycle.txt, otherwise, simply add a list of map names to maps.ini like so: 

; Maps configuration file
; File location: $moddir/addons/amxmodx/configs/maps.ini
; To use with Maps Menu plugin

; Add in your mod's maps here
; Delete this file to use mapcycle.txt

as_oilrig
cs_747
cs_assault
cs_backalley
cs_estate
cs_havana
cs_italy
cs_militia
cs_office
cs_siege
de_airstrip
de_aztec
de_cbble
de_chateau
de_dust
de_dust2
de_inferno
de_nuke
de_piranesi
de_prodigy
de_storm
de_survivor
de_torn
de_train
de_vertigo
  • Note: This is the default maps.ini for the CS package 1.76d

Map Config Files

For each map, you can also add a configuration file that will execute when the map loads. This is useful to set certain settings for 3rd party maps, say, removing the freeze time on fy_iceworld.

To do this, simply create a folder in amxmodx/configs called "maps" and place a .cfg file named after the map with the settings in it, for example, you might have amxmodx/configs/maps/fy_iceworld.cfg: 

mp_startmoney 16000
mp_freezetime 0
mp_timelimit 20
sv_downloadurl "http://YourFastDownload1.com/cstrike"  //for different Download URL other then default

Be sure to include the following line into your server.cfg. This ensures that you go back (or fall back on) to your default server settings. It is suggested that anything you place in custom config files are also put in your server.cfg or amxx.cfg (at default settings) for best use of this feature. 

mapchangecfgfile server.cfg

As of AMX Mod X 1.8.0, you are now able to create config files for map prefixes. To do this, create a file called prefix_<prefix>.cfg, where <prefix> would mean de, cs, awp, surf, ect. All prefix config files go in the same location as per map, the amxmodx/configs/map/ directory. 

configs/maps/prefix_de.cfg  - Would run on any de_* map.
configs/maps/prefix_cs.cfg  - Would run on any cs_* map.

Configuration files are map prefix first (prefix_de.cfg) and map configuration second (de_dust2.cfg).

For Counter-Strike, you can restrict certain weapons using these config files. It requires the restmenu.amxx plugin to be enabled on your server (usually is by default). You can find more information on how to do this here.

Map Specific Plugins

Each map can have a specific plugins.ini file for which it will load on map change. This plugins file will be loaded in addition to the standard plugins.ini file.

The file is to be located at amxmodx/configs/maps/plugins-mapname.ini For example, for de_dust you would create the file amxmodx/configs/maps/plugins-de_dust.ini

In addition, a plugin can be tagged as "disabled" which will prevent this plugin from being loaded. You accomplish this the same way you tag a plugin as debug mode, by entering the word disabled after the plugin name in the file, which will prevent it from being loaded for that map.

For example, if you wanted the map de_dust to disable the plugin ham.amxx and enable the plugin pickle.amxx you would put this in amxmodx/configs/maps/plugins-de_dust.ini: 

ham.amxx disabled
pickle.amxx

Note: This feature was added in AMX Mod X 1.76

As of AMX Mod X 1.8.0, you are now able to create plugin.ini files for map prefixes. To do this, create a file called plugins-<prefix>.ini, where <prefix> would mean de, cs, awp, surf, ect. All prefix config files go in the same location as per map, the amxmodx/configs/map/ directory. 

configs/maps/plugins-de.ini - Would enable/disable any plugins for all de_* maps.

Plugin based configuration files are loaded by map first (plugins-de_nuke.ini) and prefix second (plugins-de.ini).
