I am porting over MapChooserII from amxmod cuz i can't find a plugin here that only does remember last 5 maps i don't need anything else for the mapchooser. So i hope someone can help me thanks.

Code:

format(filename, 63, "%s/L%m%d.log", filepath)

%s, %m, and %d are all data.. things... to be replaced. However, you only specify the value to replace it with for one, filepath.
