Merging & Combining Two AMX Plugins into one Plugin

Two AMX Plugins can be Merged into one if you know good programming. The code is same for the two plugins till their seft introduction so, this must be skipped twice and the two should be named as a single plugin and compiled as one.

Also the variables must be checked so that they are not showing the same names.

This is the same way in which the AMX Super Plugin is made. So once when the two plugins are combined after complete checking and compiled. The final output .amxx file consists of both the plugins with both plugin commands etc. Now you can name it as AMX Hyper Plugin.

Put it for Download here and I can write a post on AMX Hyper Download.

Plugins.ini File of AMX Mod X

Plugins.ini file of AMX Mod X stores all the list of plugins to be loaded while loading AMX Mod X. These plugins are saved in Plugins folder of AMX Mod X. List of plugin file names including the .amxx extension. The previous AMX Mod used to have the plugins with .amx extension. Now the AMX Mod X users the .amxx extension.

If any new plugin is to be added to the Counter Strike AMX Mod X, like the GunGame or CSDM Plugin, it should be first placed in Plugins folder and its name should be added to the plugins.ini file of AMX Mod X.

A plugin is enabled if its name is written in the plugins.ini file and it can be disabled by adding a ';' in the beginning of the line where the filename is written.

Restricting Shields, Auto-Snipers and Other Weapons in Counter Strike CZ,1.6 using AMX Mod X

In many Clan Matches and other Official games and leagues, Auto-Snipers and Shields are restricted so if you want to make a Counter Strike Server in your LAN in some college or just if you want to make your game management easier for not buying some weapons this helps.

The easiest way to do it is as follows,

Firstly get the AMX MOD X for the Half-Life mod Counter Strike. Doesn't matter what version you are using like Condition Zero, Counter Strike 1.6, but there will be a different package for counter strike source.

After you get the package. Just install it. If it is self installing package, there is no problem. If it is a manulally installing package, you just go through the topic of this blog, link is given below
http://gaminglan.blogspot.com/2008/09/counter-strike-condition-zero-metamod.html

Now that you have finished installation, you have to enable a plugin for AMXX. That is restmenu.amxx.

Go to, CStrike\addons\amxmodx\configs\plugins.ini

You will find a semi-colon ";" in the starting of the line restmenu.amxx. Just remove the semi-colon ";" and save the file.

Now start the game. Go to the console "`" key, and type "amxmodmenu" in the console and press enter.

You will get a menu. Go to 9.More..., You will get a restrict weapons menu. Go to that number. Now it AMX Menu will show you all the weapons and whether they are restricted or not. You can restrict a weapon by just changing between 1/0 or on/off.

You find out the Auto Snipers and Tactical Shield and restrict them.

Now when you have finished restrictions, players cannot buy the weapons. But if the bots are there, they will buy the weapons. And human players can pick up the restricted weapons dropped by bots.

Creating MetaMod Addon PodBot Way Point files for any Custom Maps

If you don't know what PodBot means, here it is

PodBot means Bots named Ping of Death. These bots are famous for their headshots. The installation of podbot menu is explained below.

Just download the package from the Internet. Downloaded package contains a folder named podbots. Now extract the package and copy the folder in addons folder of your counter strike installation. If you do not have any addons folder, you should make the metamod installation. You can get complete help in that topic or I will give a very brief introduction. Skip this if you have metamod.
  • Just try to download the amx mod x, the link is given in this blog, and install it. This is enough.
  • Or install admin mod.
  • Or install metamod directly. This requires editing a file called liblist.gam

Installing metamod:

  • Download the dll file from metamod.org. Keep it in cstrike\addons\metamod\dlls
  • Edit the file liblist.gam in cstrike folder. For this you need to open the file with liblist.gam with notepad. There will be a line like this gamedll "dlls\mp.dll" change it to this gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll". That's it.

Now that you have installed metamod. Just paste the pobbot folder in addons.

Now create a file named plugins.ini with a line win32 "addons\podbot\dlls\podbot_mm.dll" in metamod folder. That's it when you start a game, these podbots will be playing with you.

You can create your own podbot way point files for any custom map so that you can create bots in it. This is how you create those way point files.



  1. You might already have the podbots installed. If not goto the explanation above.
  2. Just type this command in the console "pb wpmenu"
  3. Now a menu appears on the screen.
  4. Now bind a key to that command. To know how to bind see the previous pages in this blog.
  5. Now add a T imporatant point at T Spawn.
  6. Add CT important point in CT Spawn.
  7. Add a goal point in the middle.
  8. Now connect all these points with way points green.

Now save the waypoint file. It may have errors but it can be neglected. Just save and go on. You can switch off the waypoint menu from option 9 in the menu.

Add the bots when you start the map again.

The bots just follow the path randomly and they wouldn't get any problem reaching some point in the map. Even if they have some problem. The map does not crash and you can play the game very much normally.

Some PodBot commands:

  • pb menu - podbot menu
  • pb wpmenu - waypoint menu
  • pb add - add podbot
  • pb_detailnames 0 - dont show [PoD] in front and (100) at the end of the name

ClanMod - an Addon for Metamod

ClanMod is graetly simple and very easy to use mod for maintaining Listen Servers.

Installation of ClanMod:
ClanMod installation is very simple,
  1. Extract the ClanMod package
  2. Paste the Foldr in the addons folder
  3. Add a line to the plugins.ini files of the Metamod in the Metamod folder
  4. Line looks like this "win32 \clanmod\dlls\clanmod_mm.dll"
  5. Also you need to create an Admin.
  6. For this see the documentation.

ClanMod Documentation: http://docs.unitedadmins.com/clanmod/en/

You will get the required inforamtion there. The following information is for Clan Matches and Stuff.

I have tried to get the support for the Clan Matches. I was not able to host the clan matches perfecttly. In my view a good Clan Match Mod, should contain the each every step as indicated below.

  1. Should take the clan tags of CT and T
  2. Should start the match with a warmup mode and then with a knive round
  3. It must guide all the way through the game.
  4. When someone wins, it should show the Motd and stop the game.
  5. It should ask for the map cycle.
  6. It should show the complete statistics after the Clan Match.
  7. The statistics must include weapon stats also.

Many of these features are possed by AMX Clan Match Deluxe Plugin. It has a Menu which guides us everything.

you can download the AMX Clan Match Deluxe Plugin here http://forums.alliedmods.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=17394&d=1182746512

Hope you will make everything simpler than what you were doing before.

AMX Clan Match Deluxe Plugin Installation and Usage for Counter Strike 1.6

AMX Match Deluxe is a plugin for CS1.6 and CS:Condition Zero for hosting a clan match in the server. This plugin has a config loaded when the match starts which will setup all the settings for a aclan match.

I am trying the simplest possible explanation.


How to Install:
  1. AMX Match Deluxe plugin can be downloaded from forums of alliedmoderators and the download link is here : Download

  2. This package works on AMX MOD X 1.75 or more. So Download the latest version of AMX MOD X link is : Download (See AMX MOD X Installation page of this blog for complete help on AMX MOD X installation)

  3. Install AMX MOD X. This Mod is must.

  4. Now, in your package you see some files. Extract the package, and put the files and folders in corresponding folders of the game installation.

  5. Note these Points 6-7:

  6. If you have game installed in C:\Program Files\Valve... then you will find two folders by the name CSTRIKE and CZERO in the Valve folder.

  7. Now, when you install AMX MOD X, the installation will create a ADDONS folder in CSTRIKE or CZERO, into which ever you install it.

  8. The AMX Match Deluxe Package which you have downloaded also contains the ADDONS folder. Just put the folders accordingly in the installed ADDONS folder.
  9. Compiling the Source:
  1. Now, after finishing copying complete package, you need to compile the source. You might have already pasted a file named amx_match_deluxe.amxx in the plugins folder under Addons>Amxmod. This is enough some times. But many times you need to compile the source and replace the plugin with the plugin you got after compiling.

  2. How to Compile the Source:(See compiling amx sources page of this blog for complete help on Compiling AMX MOD X plugin sources)
  3. You have the source named amx_match_deluxe.sma, Now you might have already placed it in the scripting folder of amxmod folder.
  4. Now, run the compile.exe in the scripting folder. The output will be present in COMPILED folder of SCRIPTING folder.
  5. Place the output(.amxx file) in PLUGINS folder of amxmod.
  6. Finalizing:
  1. Now that you have finished all. Last step is letting the amx know that there is a plugin called amx_match_deluxe.amxx and running it.
  2. This is done by adding a small line "amx_match_deluxe.amxx" in the plugins.ini file under CONFIGS Folder of amxmod. To disable add ";" before the line like this ";amx_match_deluxe.amxx" in plugins.ini file.
  3. Start the Game.
Usage of AMX Match Deluxe:
  1. Type the command "amx_match CTname Tname mr10 ecup recboth" in the console. Now the server starts the match plugin and locks the game with some password. So type this only after everyone has joined the game. The game name is changed to "CTname Vs Tname Clan Match"
  2. Here mr10 in the comands means maximum rounds are 10 as ct and 10 as t. who ever wins the highest rounds win.
  3. Here CTname is name of ct clan, and Tname is t clan.
  4. There would a worm up round.
  5. There would be a knive round.
  6. The game can also be set to maximum time "mt
  7. Read the readme now, and you will understand everything.
This Clan Match plugin from AMXX is really cool to use. It shows the number of games won by each team in the bttom left corner. And it will also show the clan names at top left corner.

Mostly I will add a screenshot of the game, sooner or later.

Writing Your Own AMXX Plugins, All you need is C++ and AMXX Documentation

You can write your own amxx plugins just by opening the amxmodx studio and writing a program in it. You also need to know the commands which will interact with the library modules. Like,
You can get the documentation at http://www.amxmodx.org/doc/
some sample functions:
  1. cs_get_user_deaths
  2. cs_get_user_money
  3. cs_get_user_bpammo
  4. ...

There are some hundreds of functions like this. Using these functions you should get the information and you can make your own game play.
