AMX Mod X 1.76 is a small feature release and contains mostly bug fixes. AMX Mod X 1.76a through 1.76d are small bug-fix releases to patch up problems with 1.76. This changelog is brought to you by Batman and ramen.
Contents
New Plugin File Features
Per-Map Plugin Files
You can now have per-map plugin configuration files. AMX Mod X will automatically load any plugins listed in files having the following name: configs/maps/plugins-<map>.ini. Thus, de_dust specific plugins will be loaded from configs/maps/plugins-de_dust.ini.
Map-specific plugin files are parsed after the main plugins.ini is parsed, and after all secondary plugins-*.ini files are parsed in the configs folder. This means that a map-specific plugin listing inherits all settings above itself.
Disabling Plugins
A second feature was introduced to let users disable plugins per map. In any plugins-*.ini file, you may now add a "disabled" flag to a plugin name. This works like the "debug" flag. Example:
gaben.amxx disabled
This will block the plugin from being loaded from any other configuration file. So if plugins-de_dust.ini has the example line above, gaben.amxx will not be loaded from any other plugins file.
New Scripting Features
Sorting
AMX Mod X now has a comprehensive array sorting solution. You can sort using pre-defined array types, or use your own custom comparison functions. All of the sorting routines use the qsort() function from the C standard library, which is based on the Quick Sort algorithm.
Basic Sorting
The follow basic sorting natives were added. These natives sort an array in-place using pre-defined comparison routines. You can change the sorting order using an optional third parameter. By default it is Sort_Ascending, and Sort_Descending is available as well.
- SortIntegers() - Sorts an array of integers.
- SortFloats() - Sorts an array of floats.
- SortStrings() - Sorts an array of strings.
Custom Sorting
Furthermore, you can also define your own custom comparison functions and have the sorting algorithm run them for you. This can be useful in a variety of ways. For example, if you have an array of players and an array of those player's skills, you can easily sort the player ids by skill using this feature.
Custom sorting requires making a function which compares two elements of your array. Given elements e1 and e2:
- Return -1 to mean "e1 comes before e2"
- Return 0 to mean "e1 is equal to e2"
- Return 1 to mean "e1 comes after e2"
For example, a very simple formula to compare integers in this manner is: e1 - e2.
The custom sorting natives are:
- SortCustom1D() - Sorts a 1D array given a custom comparison function.
- SortCustom2D() - Sorts a 2D array given a custom comparison function.
Examples
You can see an example of each native listed above in the sorting testing plugin.

1.76 Changelog
AMX Mod X 1.76 was released on September 17, 2006.
Core Changes
New Features
- The compiler has been heavily optimized and will now compile plugins much faster.
- Request am43012: You can now specify per-map plugins files. For example, you can list de_dust only plugins in configs/maps/plugins-de_dust.ini.
- You can now specify a new "disabled" option after plugin names in plugins.ini files. This will prevent the plugin from being loaded in any config file, and is useful for disabling plugins in map-specific plugin files.
- Added an experimental compatibility layer for AMX Mod. See AMX Mod Compatibility Layer (AMX Mod X) for more information.
- Request am42871: Source file name is shown in the binary logs when the plugin is in the debug mode.
- Request am44299: Error logs now show the mapname and current log file.
- The developer test suite is now packaged with Core in the scripting folder.
Bug Fixes
- Improved stability and eliminated weird bugs on Linux. These were caused by code generation bugs in GCC and appear to exist primarily in versions higher than 1.60.
- Fixed a bug where secondary plugin files would not autoload modules.
- Fixed a serious corruption bug in callfunc_push_intrf(), callfunc_push_floatrf(), and callfunc_push_str(). Strings or data passed with these methods could be easily overwritten internally.
- Fixed the JIT not being able to compute heaplow bounds problems.
- Fixed am41317: ExecuteForward() string parameters would be trashed on future internal string calls.
- Fixed am41777: time.txt was not included in the installer.
- Fixed am42213: "amx_logs" was incorrectly listed as "amx_logsdir" in core.ini.
- Request am41036: Improved bot detection.
- Fixed a rare bug where passing (1<<31) into a %d format-code would print garbage characters.
Scripting Changes
Additions
- Request am23838: Added natives to sort integers, floats, strings. Also added natives to sort custom 1D and 2D arrays using user comparison functions.
- Added vdformat() for formatting variable argument strings in dynamic natives.
- Added CreateLangKey() and AddTranslation() for manipulating the multilingual translator.
- Added SQL_GetInsertId() to MySQL and sqLite modules.

- Request am42810: Added callfunc_push_array() to push an array through a callfunc.
- Request am42697: Added SQL_GetQueryString() to find the query string of a query handle.
- Request am29544: Added nvault_touch() native for updating key timestamps.
- Request am28110: Added tfc_get_user_goalitem() to determine if player is carrying a goal item (such as a flag or keycard)
- Request am41295: Added CZ model types to the CsInternalModel enumeration.
- Request am41635: All string formatting routines can now use '%u' to print integers as unsigned. Note that Pawn only supports signed arithmetic.

- Request am40967: set_fail_state() now logs that the plugin is failed.
- Request am41375: cs_set_weapon_silen() now has an additional parameter to toggle whether silencer animation is shown.

- Added amxx_setpl_curweap() to the native exports table.
- Added tfc_get/setweaponammo for ammo that is not in player's backpack.
- Engine's entity_get and entity_set routines no longer verify that players are fully ingame. This check was deemed too restrictive.
- Added hyperbolic trigonomic natives: floatsinh(), floatcosh(), and floattanh().
