Ok, I am kinda confused but how could I convert

log_to_file(logfilename,"%s has left; %s is no longer nominated",kName,nmaps[n])

into using the AMXX navtive

native log_amx(const string[], {Float,_}:...);

*EDIT

I think i figured it out just now, suggestions are welcomed tho

*EDIT again

YEa i figured it out, thanks for the help anywayz.

Maybe you could explain what you did and how it works. I think you're not the only one who has this problem.

Ok

log_to_file(logfilename,"%s has left; %s is no longer nominated",kName,nmaps[n])

That code right there creates a new file name inside of the amxx\logs directory.

Well when posting a plugin on this forum you are not allowed to use this native log_to_file but you have to use the native log_amx

With the native log_amx the logs will be placed into the already generated amxx\log files.

Sooo for example

log_to_file(logfilename,"%s has left; %s is no longer nominated",kName,nmaps[n])

Well using the log_amx native it would look like

log_amx("%s has left; %s is no longer nominated",kName,nmaps[n])

Then anything else related to "log_to_file" or "logfilename" would no longer be needed because they would have no more use in the code, so you could safely remove those and change to log_amx and have a smaller code, more productive code.

I hope that helps

Good explanation!! I never used it yet in AMXX but now I know how!! Glad you posted your findings!!

Anything to help out man, many people have helped me and if I can help with what little I know I will try

[PM]

just a small side note:
in 0.2, when
when amx_logging is 0, all calls to log_amx are ignored. when amx_logging is 1, it is logged into amxx/logs/logfile, when amx_logging is 2, it is logged into HL logs (moddir/logs/logfile)

[BigBaller]

Ok soo PM, will amx_logging be defualted at 1 or something?

Or will it be added in the amxx.cfg something like

// AMX MOD X Logging
// 0 = disabled
// 1 = <mod\addons\amxx\logs directory
// 2 = <mod>\logs directory
amx_logging 1

???

and would we have to change our current plugins for this change, I would think not but just asking?

[PM]

yes, default will be 1.

to change the log mode before any logging starts, you need to place the command into (listen)server.cfg; you can also change it when the server runs though

no, plugin changes are not neccessary
