This document contains information on upgrading AMX Mod X versions. Almost all versions follow the same pattern, although notes on specific versions can be found here as well.

All Versions

For general upgrades, you should make sure you:

  • Replace all binaries.
    • dlls, modules / *.dll/*.so - This includes amxmodx_mm and all modules.
    • plugins/*.amxx - Any default plugins AMX Mod X comes with.
    • data/GeoIP.dat - If you use GeoIP, make sure you update the database.
  • Replace language files.
    • data/lang/*.txt - Important to make sure plugins are using the right language phrases.
  • Read the upgrade notes to see any other custom changes needed.
  • If you do scripting locally...
    • Replace all base include and source files (.inc, .sma).
    • Replace the compiler and its binaries (amxxpc, amxxpc32, amxxpc64).


1.75 from 1.71

  • Follow general upgrade instructions.
  • Make the following configuration changes:
    • Open configs/sql.cfg. Add the new cvar:
      • amx_sql_type "mysql"
      • Note: Other option is "sqlite"
    • Optional: Open configs/modules.ini.
      • If you are using MySQL or SQLite, or any custom modules, write them down.
      • Replace your old modules.ini with 1.75's stock version.
      • Re-add your custom or SQL modules back in.
