cool thread depot.

hmmm, dont know if this is jsut for plugins, but i would like to know about amxx 1.01.

is it worth installing for an ns server? is there any server performance boosts that are gained? any extra commands that you get? because i have 1.0 right now and everything is working fine.

thanks depot.

Depot · March 2005

Good question Xeno. If I may quote the AMX Mod X website news,
</div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'>for the most part it's not vitally necessary that you upgrade. </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
I recommend using AMX Mod X v1.00, installing Metamod 1.17.4, and grabbing the Natural Selection Addon Package, being certain to install the AMX Mod X v1.01 NS module and the new plugins (in particular nscommands and timeleft).

There have been issues with v1.01 (Metamod-p could cause AMX Mod X to crash when using modules) and I understand they now have a patch for that (ONLY if you use Metamod-p). However, <b>there are no real advantages to upgrading so I recommend sticking with v1.00 and simply updating the NS Addons package.</b>

MrAgent · March 2005

Depot, do you have a link to the extralevels2.sma ?
Im not asking for help to figure out why the /menu isnt working
Im thinking I may need to recompile it, and I want to make sure I have a working version first.

Wooo000ooot finally a place to ask. I dont think Ive seen help topics at nsmods or any NS specific forum at amxmodx. And I have tons of questions. Along with amxx 1.01 cheezypetza added new ns commands. Nscommands 1.01 shows as running. I use amxmodx 1.01 and metamod 1.17.4.

We use amxmodmenu to access admin commands menu. When we try to change a players team from Alien to Marine or vice versa we get the option to switch to CT or terroist, if we go ahead with the switch it just slays the player. Is there another command to access the NSCOMMANDS? Or a command to switch players?

ReadyRoom kicker. This has to be just for NS. No other mod uses a ready room. Is there a way to give my lower level admins immunity to this without giving them immunity to all other plugins? I tried adding the M cvar to their admin list, which adds immunity to 3rd party plugins but it dosnt work.

Hey Depot....thanks you for taking the time to start this post. You rock0zs bro!

Depot · March 2005

To move a player (assuming the teams are uneven) simply type "amx_marine <playername>" or "amx_alien <playername>" in console. Regarding the amx_readyroom command, let me open that sma and get back with ya.

DEADscott · March 2005

The team switch works for me, super admin but not my other admins. What access level do they need? This is their current admin access:
bcdefijmu

Depot · March 2005

ADMIN_LEVEL_H is the default access for this plugin (; t - custom level H).

DEADscott · March 2005

Thank you very much Depot!

Zodiac_Mindwarp · March 2005

Depot,

Where's the AvA plugin?

Z

Depot · March 2005

I don't have that one. The concept never really caught on, it is buggy, and the map selection is very limited. Did I mention it is also difficult to tell who is on which team? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' />

MrAgent · March 2005

Ok, so I downloaded the extralevels2 plugin again and recompiled it. The thickend skin doesnt work. Also it doesnt show what level you are beyond level 10, it still gives you levels and points though.
Anyone else have this problem?

Depot · March 2005

MrAgent it's not the plugin. Ensure you have the following modules enabled in your modules.ini:
</div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'>#include <fakemeta>
#include <engine>

Orox · March 2005

Ok, got a problem with AMXx.

- NS 3.01
- Win32 dedicated
- Meta 1.17.4p20
- AMXx 1.01

Ok, i'm logged as admin, AMXx is loaded but...
but, AMXx does not display anything, the blackhole. I can use a few commands (amx_kick, amx_ban, etc... (but still no messages from AMXx when using these commands).

Allready tried to switch off some modules, and plugins, same result.
Here is a post where you can check my specs :

<a href='http://www.amxmodx.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11539' target='_blank'>http://www.amxmodx.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11539</a>

please help, i'm gone crazy and a few people got this "bug".

Edit : Sorry Depot, I posted my message while typing ^^

Depot · March 2005

Orox, a more detailed description of your problem would help.

Jiriki · March 2005

AMXX is nice, I moved to it because adminmod was too buggy and unsupported.

Currently I use<ul><li>AMXX 2.0-20050110 (updated nscommands -plugin and ns_amxx_i386.so -module + adminslots -plugin)</li><li>MM 1.17.4p20 (awards)</li><li>Cdeath 4.21</li></ul>on my both servers and I'm perfectly satisfied with them.

Btw. My server won't show a country flag in the ASE-serverlist. Maybe it has something to do with 127.0.0.1 being the ip in status-cmd. It should get the ip from ppp0-interface, but I don't know how can I tell it to.

anyone have the superlift plugin, i need it bad.

depot, do you think it's possible in any way to modify the superlift plugin so that enemies cant lift each other. lerks cant lift marines, jp's cant lift gorges. however, they can lift their own teammates?
