Title: Simple Readme

Alright, so you want to install amxmodx, well this readme will
make that all easy and possible, even if you have no idea what your
doing.
First things first, you can use an automatic installer, a file which
will automatically install amxmodx for you. You can find these programs
in places such as amxmodx.org (forums). I don't trust them though since
its easy to lead to problems, but hard to find the errors, so instead
this readme will teach you how to install amxmodx manually.
Windows:
Here's a step by step procedure:
1. Copy and paste this link to download Metamod metamod-1.17.1-win.zip
(metamod-1.17.1-linux.tar.gz if your using linux)
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=24195&package_id=119653
2. Go into the folder holding the game you want to have a server for:
Examples:
Steam\Steamapps\[email protected]\Counter-strike\cstrike\
for counterstrike.
Steam\Steamapps\[email protected]\half-life\esf\
for earth's special forces.
3. Now, make a NEW folder called addons.
4. Double click on addons and make another folder called metamod.
5. Double click metamod and put yet ANOTHER folder called dlls in there, this is where Metamod.dll (metamod_i386.so for linux) will be placed
6. Unzip the Metamod file you just downloaded, and cut and paste Metamod into the dlls folder.
7. Now, open up either Notepad or Wordpad and save it to your Metamod folder (not dlls, not addons, metamod) and save it as
Plugins.ini.
8. Add win32 addons/amxx/dlls/amxx_mm.dll (linux addons/amxx/dlls/amxx_mm_i386.so for linux) to your newly created Plugins.ini. Basically, this tells Metamod to run Amxmodx, since Amxmodx IS a plugin to Metamod.
9. There, now your done with metamod, next you have to move onto amxx.
10. Go to amxmodx.org and download the latest amxx program.
11. Unzip that program into your addons folder.
12. And that's it your done installing amxmodx, now all you have to do is tell your server to run Metamod which will, that's
simple enough.
13. Go into go back into the folder containing your addons folder (ex. Steam\Steamapps\counsterstrike\cstrike) and locate
a file named liblist.cfg
14. If there is no folder named this, go into notepad again, and name the file "liblist.cfg" and save it to the folder.
15. Now, locate a line that says this:
Window Users:
gamedll "dlls\mp.dll"
Linus Users:
gamedll_linux "dlls/cs_i386.so"
and change that line to this:
Window Users:
gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll"
Linux Users:
gamedll_linux "addons/metamod/dlls/metamod_i386.so"
16. Walla your all done.
How to add Plugins:
1. Very simple, take the plugin (it should have an extension of .amx, in other words esf.amx)
2. cut and paste it into your addons\amxx\plugins folder
3. Go to addons\amxx and double click on the file and add the file name at the end of list of plugins.
4. Just add the file name, nothing else, if you wanted to turn off plugins though (rather than doing it while your in the
server) just add a semicolon (
to the beginning of file name, this tells amxx to ignore that line.
