my apologies, i didnt mean to step on anyones toes or come off the wrong way. i do appreciate your support and assistance. these plugins get frustrating sometimes, especially when HL does major updates and leaves everyone in the dark. i will be here if you need any testing of this plug. hopefully together we can make it happen!

you didn't step on my toes, i understand that you got used to the other plug-in and have a configuration for it that is working fine. at least until the hlds update. i had to rewrite much code in xREDIRECT too but this time i created a very dynamic method, so the next protocol update won't hurt that much again.

and remember your problems are only in the new beta, the "different mod" feature is just some hours old. i expect the current version to work fine for you. did you already try it? it looks like all of your servers are still running the outdated 1.0 version.

about the "different mod" issue:
i did some testing with your server already and it was quite disappointing. i added your server to the server list of one of my NS servers and let it check your server. and this is what i got:

L 11/30/2008 - 01:33:07: [xredirect.amxx] mod comparison: local mod "ns" differs from remote mod "cstrike"

so i can't reproduce your issue, for me it is working fine, your server mod is correctly detected as being "cstrike"

[EDIT]
and to answer your question in the other thread: no, upgrading to AMXX 1.81 won't make the other server menu work again. the plug-in itself has to be changed to support the new protocol.

xOR im getting close. things are starting to work a bit. but not exaclty how i wish. maybe with your expertise, you can guide me as to what i want from your plugin (if possible)?
the /server menu is working and showing all servers with map and player count. just like in your example pic here http://plugins.n-ice.org/xredirect/s...s/redirall.png
how can i make it so the map/players do not show on my server list?
example;
#1 California -[.40 cal ]- beginners! [de_dust] (11/16)...with info!!!!
#2 California -[.40 cal ]- beginners!............................without info
i want my servers to show without info, but when clicking on a server of choice, it then shows the server info. as decribed in your example pic here http://plugins.n-ice.org/xredirect/s...ts/submenu.png

if this can be done for me, i would be in your debt!

i'm afraid xREDIRECT currently can't do this, especially because it was never requested before. people either want the info or don't want it - it's pretty much a waste of xREDIRECT's capabilities to not give the people a good overview but demand them to select the server first to see it. it's like "oh cool, there is a warcraft3 server in the list *click*. oh damn, it's empty ".

on the other hand, if we had this feature, i could tell all those people with "GhostKillers cool Super Warcraft3 GunGame Headshot Power Ninja haxx0r0r0r Action Server with SaveXP sponsored by www.youwouldneverhaveknownthatsuchaweirdpagec ouldevenexist.com" that have their menu cut because they confuse a short and practical selection menu with an advertisement poster that they might have a chance their menu is not cut when they turn display of map and players off.

so, yes, i will work on that feature. but of course this means we are back to beta testing again and this includes fixing the other problem the beta version currently has: that the mod version is not detected in some cases. you already said you would help and as you are the requestor i count on you

how does the "crash" look? does the console freeze? does it say "segmentation fault"? does it just quit without any message?
can you track the error down to xREDIRECT or a specific feature of it? does it work when you disable xREDIRECT? does it work when you enable it but set redirect_check_method 0 (so no sockets will be used)? does it crash directly after (re)starting the server? when the first player joins? random?

according to the AMXX include file for the sockets module error 3 is "couldn't connect to given hostname:port". so the linux sockets layer was unable to create an UDP connection to the addresses for the servers. i'm afraid i can't help you with that very much, it's a network problem. currently all your servers are down, so maybe your server provider has a problem?
