despite my recently registered account, Im not unfamiliar with amxmodx along with update methods.
Ive had a server for LAN and competition purposes for many years, and just saw the new update to amxmodx 1.8.1 along with a bunch of new and awesome plugins, so I thought to give it a try.
But after updating to amxx 1.8.1 from 1.7.6d, my server wont launch anymore and it crashes my cs upon server loading (and yes I have 1.8.1base and 1.8.1cstrike installed).

My installation approach is as follows:

Ive overwritten nothing from previous server, but only switched between "addons/amxmodx" folders. Ive tried different versions of metamod. Ive tried both listen and dedicated server.
Ive tried a clean install of cs with nothing but metamod and amxx1.8.1 and still no result.
I literally have no idea of whats going wrong here.

So if anyone could point me in the right direction, I would be a happy man.

Kind regards

Besides from the hl.exe process itself responds as "not responding", there are sadly none.

Does it crash with Metamod disabled?
Does it crash with AMXModX disabled?
Are you positive you installed the Windows versions?
Do you have any other Metamod plugins running besides AMXModX?
Is HLDS fully up-to-date with the latest Steam release?

Try to install Metamod-P First if that works : Good
didn't work ?
Reinstall your server (Using hldsupdatetool)and Install Metamod-P With AmxModX v1.8.2

Thank you once again for your help, I really appreciate it , but this has just turned out to be an huge pain in the ass. Seeing the effort I need to put down to make this work, I think Im better off sticking to my good old stable 1.7.6d

Anyway again thank you for your help
