Many are aware that there is a glitch in the DOD map dod_falaise that can cause a Windows server to crash. (Reference THIS OLD THREAD).rnrnI wrote an Amxmodx plugin that prevents this from happening. Long live falaise!

Is there a better way to protect the amxx file? I don't mind if someone like you, or Wilson has the sma. People that I know are trustworthy. I just want to protect it from punks. Ya, what I do isn't rocket science. I'm really surprised someone hasn't done it before. But then we never had a problem until we went to a Windows server. You're welcome to put it in your anti-cheat plugin if you want.rnrnFor more info, there's an old thread in the DOD forums about this bug.

Once you know the trick, its pretty easy. I hate to admit it, but during testing, I actually crashed a couple servers. But they were in China, so I didn't feel REAL bad.

There is also updated version of this map called dod_falaise-gap that takes care of the server crash bug. :D

You're right. And its a great map too. I wish Valve would have replaced falaise with falaise-gap like FuzzDad wanted. But I guess they're through messin' with 1.3

the funny thing about this is, I found the huge bug in the map , when steam was still supporting dod , and Fuzzdad even sent me a copy of the new version of falaise when I pointed it out to him.rnrnsteam fixed the biggest bug in the map ,and you cant crash it that way anymore.rnrnit use to be super easy to crash every server on steam.rnrnnow its a ton harder to do so.
