Alright, I've just begun scratching the surface when it comes to All this Dod Dedicated server stuff, the last two days have been...Horrible. Lol. Finally got my server to work online which was wonderful, now for really cool Plugins right? Well I get this error [AMXX] Plugin file open error (Such and such File) I've tried Multiple different plugins from this site because you guys seem to do awesome work, I've been them in action on other servers. Weaponsmod, Medic, and a few others. Well I understand you take the .amxx file and place it in the addons/amxx/plugins folder. I've done that, and then you goto the Configs folder and pull up the plugins.ini and in this case I was trying it with WeaponsMod2.amxx. I added it far below:rnrn; AMX Mod X pluginsrnrn; Admin Base - Always one has to be activatedrnadmin.amxx ; admin base (required for any admin-related)rn;admin_sql.amxx ; admin base - SQL version (comment admin.amxx)rnrn; Basicrnadmincmd.amxx ; basic admin console commandsrnadminhelp.amxx ; help command for admin console commandsrnadminslots.amxx ; slot reservationrn;multilingual.amxx ; Multi-Lingual managementrnrn; Menusrnmenufront.amxx ; front-end for admin menusrncmdmenu.amxx ; command menu (speech, settings)rnplmenu.amxx ; players menu (kick, ban, client cmds.)rn;telemenu.amxx ; teleport menu (Fun Module required!)rn;mapsmenu.amxx ; maps menu (vote, changelevel)rnrn; Chat / Messagesrnadminchat.amxx ; console chat commandsrnantiflood.amxx ; prevent clients from chat-flooding the serverrnscrollmsg.amxx ; displays a scrolling messagernimessage.amxx ; displays information messagesrnadminvote.amxx ; vote commandsrnrn; Map relatedrn;nextmap.amxx ; displays next map in mapcyclern;mapchooser.amxx ; allows to vote for next maprn;timeleft.amxx ; displays time left on maprnrn; Configurationrnpausecfg.amxx ; allows to pause and unpause some pluginsrnstatscfg.amxx ; allows to manage stats plugins via menu and commandsrnrn; Day of Defeatrnstats.amxx ; stats on death or round end (DoD Module required!)rn;statssounds.amxx ; precache plugin for stats pluginsrn;stats_logging.amxx ; weapons stats logging (DoD Module required!)rnrnrn; Enable to use AMX Mod pluginsrn;amxmod_compat.amxx ; AMX Mod backwards compatibility layerrnrn; Custom - Add 3rd party plugins herernrndod_weaponsmod2.amxxrnrnNow I don't know if I'm putting it in the wrong place, but the server when I start it up, seems to recognize it's there, but once again I get the "Plugin File Open error" And I get that with any Addon I try to adapt to my server. I've been scanning through the forums and I couldn't find anything that pertained to this subject, I also looked through the installation guide from amxmodx.org and I've tried compiling them myself using the .sma usually given and then adding it like so. And it still doesn't work. >.< Also Gone through and looked at all the Modules Needed:rnrn#include <amxmodx> rn#include <amxmisc> rn#include <fun> rn#include <dodx>rn#include <fakemeta>rnrnI've also went into the modules.ini and taken away the ; infront of said Modules needed. And I still get that error. >.< Hope I've elaborated enough to give you all the information needed.

Sounds like your doing it correctly. What version of amx are you running?rnHOLD ON!! Look at this line.rnrn; Enable to use AMX Mod pluginsrn;amxmod_compat.amxx ; AMX Mod backwards compatibility layerrnrnYou have stopped backwards compatability, so if the plugins are older than your amx version they won't run.

nnthe amxmod_compat is for running really old AMXmod plugins on AMXmodX i believe.. which shouldnt be a problem with the weaponmodnnbut i see youre trying to add WeaponsMod2.amxx by adding dod_weaponsmod2.amxx to the plugins.ini, it has to be the exact filename (case sensitive) unless you just typed it wrong as an example to post...

Nope, I have a bad habit of randomly capping things, but when I get new files I take the caps out of them, so the file looks like weaponsmod2.amxx and it reads on the Plugins.ini dod_weaponsmod2.amxx
