Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Good news all around!

First, I'm pleased to announce a new feature on the AMX Mod X (and SourceMod) sites: Addon/Mod Tracking! You can now see how many servers are running your plugin, how many servers are running each version, and you can even break down your stats based on game mods. We've started tracking the most popular dozen plugins to start off with:

http://www.amxmodx.org/stats.php

This tool is designed for developers to gauge how popular their mod is, how fast it takes versions to propogate, and which versions are most popular. Want your plugin to be tracked? All it needs is an external/public CVAR! Read the FAQ on how to get your plugin on the tracker list.

Although the stats are already detailed, it also internally tracks operating systems and saves every day's stats. So for the future, we're hoping to add advanced report generation, linear time graphs, and the ability to compare multiple mods at once.

Second, You'll also notice that the AMX Mod X site is now using an improved color scheme for readability. I think everyone was sick of orange on blue.

Third, AMX Mod X 1.76 is expected to be released in the next day or two.

Lastly, sawce is back. What's up, sawce. All right sit down.

Enjoy!

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Very cool!

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

I like green.

Good features too, it's cool to see how many people use each plugin.

Took BAILOPAN long enough. Hes been doing it since CPL. OMG I WAS THERE!!!

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Great. Maybe this will supplant game-monitor, which I've always think sucked.

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Game-Monitor is a different beast. They're there to track servers individually, as well as players. They update a rather large database every 20 minutes or something. I'm only interested in mod statistics, which I did because Game-Monitor didn't seem interested in expanding theirs.

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Interesting

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

so in this new addons/stats tracker will be there a feature that will display the servers ip"s

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Not unless it becomes a popular request

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Very nice ! One request though : display the servers ip's :)

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Please :)

What FAQ are you talking about because it isnt the FAQ on these forums right?

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

He was refering to the one on the stats page, http://www.amxmodx.org/stats.php?go=faq

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Good job! Looking forward to see all mod stats growing from this project.
Just to clear things up for me.

The info I have to add in the plugin is for example:
register_cvar("mod_stats", PLUGIN_VERSION, FCVAR_SERVER)

The info you request in the mod stats request mail are for example:
Addon name: TFC Skillsrank
URL: Url to the plugin on amxmodx or?
Game: HL1
Public cvar name: mod_stats

/Lt.

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

You probably shouldn't call the cvar 'mod_stats', since everybody's cvar has to be unique. You should go with something similar to 'tfcsr_version'..

Right now I'm not seeing any statistics for any addons.. Is that because an update is taking place or some other gremlin?

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Yay XD

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Looks like the update script didn't run, if you were getting empty stats it should be fixed now.

*waits for the new AMXX*

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

bail youre so freaking talented!!!!!!!!! i dunno how u make all this stuff!!! I am peeing my pants wating for 1.76 ^______^!!!!!!!

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

nice work bail

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Wow nice :)

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

bail could make it like so when u click on a plugin it will open a new small window it will show how many server r running it but like game server not all hl1 server, like cz=10 server running that plugin or something thats an example

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Cool, but CS 1.5 servers are not works, on gamemonitors, only by IP

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Steam (which superceded CS 1.5 two years ago) changed the query protocol. I don't plan on bothering with the old protocol for the handful of servers that use it.

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Stats is ALWAYS a Good Thing !!

Good Job

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Again nice job Bail :)

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

Really nice!
Will this be an open source project?

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

The protocols used to query are well-documented by Valve in case you want to make your own query tools.

HL1:

* http://www.valve-erc.com/srcsdk/Code...erqueries.html

Re: Addon/Stats Tracker Launched
 

The small handful of servers that run 1.5 normally doesnt have any players in it anyway.
