I'm at NFO and I'm running AMX Mod X 1.9.0.5271. I had to update it manually but it works. I had originally got the same answer as you. However, one day when the HLDS actually updated, it actually broke several of my plugins and I was forced to manually upgrade.

GSP is "Game Server Provider". I don't think I made that up but maybe lol.

To view the console, go to the "Server Control" tab in your NFO Control Panel. There should be a button their to show the console tool ("Show Console Tool >>"). This allows you to see the Linux console outside of the game server itself (I think that this may only be available on Linux servers). The other one for RCON shows what you would see if you connected to the server via RCON.

Also, I think if there was an actual server crash, you should get a notification and I believe that notification has a snapshot of the console just before it crashed. I think these show up on the "Events log" tab.

Unfortunately, I highly doubt that this will ever happen.

Not necessarily. If what you changed enabled something that has a bug in it in the unstable dev version then I'd expect strange thing happening. Generally, updating to a known working version (1.9.0 is fairly widely used AFAIK), help the debugging process because it's hard to trust a version that is not being used by barely anyone.


EDIT:

I just tested this on my local Counter-Strike server and it doesn't crash the server when I uncomment those two lines. I simply added advanced_bans.amxx to plugins.ini and restarted.

Until then, they don't support versions that AMX, themselves, don't consider stable.

This statement makes no sense as 1.8.3 is also an unstable build. In fact, it's much more unstable and has a lot more issues that the latest 1.9 or even 1.10 build.

1.8.3 is just an older 1.9 build. I don't see the point of them not supporting it just because the number changed.

Did you use " "?

Try it this way

amx_addban "STEAM_2:1:2035353877" "0" "banlist"
or
amx_addban <STEAM_2:1:2035353877> <0> <banlist>

[fysiks]

SteamIDs starting with "STEAM_2" are beta SteamIDs according to this. So, are you claiming that someone has a legitimate beta account and is playing on your server? It seems highly unlikely that this is a valid SteamID that is actually playing on your server.

They all work well, just not on a non-steam server with non-steam clients.

#define REGEX_STEAMID_PATTERN "^^STEAM_(0|1)0|2):\d+$"
will this work? with STEAM_2:1 STEAMID
