trex8692 · **Author**

can someone teach me how to load an motd so that it shows up when you join the server?, the place wehre most servers display their rules.

i know how to code html but when i save it, it doesnt show up when i join the server.

i am running amxx 1.76d, cs:cz, listenserver on sv_lan 0 mode

thanks for your time.

No need to get annoyed. Be patient.

Yes, use the <html> <head> <title> tags to start and just write it like normal HTML.
