bail: i'm not trying to ignore you, i actually tried saying somthing but something went wrong and i couldnt post yesterday. Anyways i'm scared i might do something wrong during disabling plugins. Should i just remove their names in plugins.ini?? should i first try to install amxx 1.76c first before disabling?

kwo: i never did installation of plugins that way. the way i did it was this: first i would download, then i would place all the .amxx files in plugins folder. Next i would input the plugins name in plugins.ini. Is that way wrong??? the plugins i installed that way always seemed to work. I didnt see any need to compile if they were already there.

amxx 1.76c : oh i didnt read that part i read only the beta version of it.

I'm not Bail, but I'l try to answer for You (if he will have time and he will feel to add something - he will do it anyway ) - Yes - first thing is installing AMX X 1.76c, becaue CSDM 2.1 requires 1.76 or higher version (that one is for sure). Disabling custom plugins in plugins.ini means You can just add the comment delimiter before the plugin name. In plugins.ini the delimiter is semicolon (";") - so the line with disabled gore plugin (just example) should look so:
;gore.amxx

If You did "Get plugin" You've got *.amxx files compiled to that version of AMX X which was actually (at the moment of downloading) the latest release of AMX X. So to have them compiled against the latest AMX X version - if You are upgrading Your AMX X You need to upgrade all Your custom plugins, too. Either You will do it the way I described it for You or You need to do "Get plugin" again for all Your custom plugins You have. I hope it's clear now for You why it was working and what is really necessary to get them working.
Anyway I would suggest again - install AMX X 1.76c and CSDM 2.1 - to see if everything is working, then add Your custom plugins.

k as of installing amxx 1.76 i'll have to do it later as i dont have time right now
-------------------------------------------
so what your saying is that since i did "get plugin" it only gets the plugin meant for THAT version of amxx?? and if i do the get source i can convert it to amxx 1.7(whatever my version is)?

It was giving You *.amxx file which was compiled plugin against the version of AMX X which was the latest official for THAT day You got that file. It's always recommended and - even with major AMX X releases - requested to recompile all custom plugins the user has got.

Yup - just these ways I showed You before.
Maybe try first to do it on Your local PC - to make sure You can do everything correctly and in short time later on Your DS.

BTW - can You re-edit the title of the topic (just edit the first post of it) to make it more descriptive to Your problem?

[trex8692]

ok this MAY be the problem because i'm not running a DS i'm runing a listen server with the setting on sv_lan 0

That's even more easy - You can rename Your old amxmodx folder to amxmodx_old - then You can try to install the newest AMX X. If You will stuck in some problem - You can rename the new AMX X folder into amxmodx_new - then rename back amxmodx_old to amxmodx and You can try to play with old AMX and still ask for the help with the newest version.

Or just grab from my signature All-In-One - it contains amx x 1.76c, metamod and podbot mm. Just rename Your addons folder (inside cstrike forlder) into addons_old and unzip the contents of All-In-One into Your cstrke folder (let overwrite everything). Then - when You have AMX X 1.76c and CSDM 2.1 and everything is working You can try to work on these Your custom plugins.

hmm interesting ,

which method would you recommend an amx novice plugin installer, like me, do??

And for the second method, where would i find the All-in-one thing?? amx 1.76c package??

also for the second method, i use the czero folder (i'm running CZ) instead of the cstrike, is that ok??

Yeah - in the case of CZERO You need to unzip the crap into "czero" folder.

[trex8692]

where is your signature all in one??

[KWo]

If You cannot see my signature - go to Your "User CP" go to "Edit Options", scroll down the window and find "Thread Display Options" - there are:Show Signatures, Show Avatars, Show Images (including attached images and images in [IMG] code). You need to have marked the first one. Go at the bottom of the page and click on the buttton "Save changes".

Look - I've dedicated to You a lot of time to help You. Either You start to think before posting or I'll start to ignore Your questions...
