people cannot connect + amx x goes to crap
 

Ok, so i have AMDMODX 1.175, metamod 1.19, and E[Pod]Bot 5.2 installed on a Steam Dedicated server running off Windows XP Pro with SP2. Before I installed the epodbot, I had no problems at all ( amxmodx worked great, users could connect ), after installation of epodbot 2.5, nobody can connect to my server, it acts as if the servers down. (Retrying connection, retrying connection (2) and so on). PLUS, amxmodx dosn't work. in console, i'll type amxmodmenu, and nothing happens, i get no menu, nore an unknown command error. So i try it again, and it gives me the unknown command error.

In the manual, it says to add win23 EPODbot/EPB.dll to metamods plugins.ini, but that dosen't work, so it says alternatively, add
gamedll "EPODbot\EPB.dll" to liblist.gam, and the bots work, whether win23 EPODbot/EPB.dll is in metamod's plugins.ini or not at all.

Any Ideas on how to allow users to connect with active bots, or how to get amxmodx to work with the bots?

Is this related to the min and max bot counts?

Wrong forum. You should've post in E[POD]Bot forum. Here is the forum for podbot mm (another clone). I'm moving the topic to the correct place.

BTW - podbot mm works very well with AMX MOD X 1.75a. No one reported any problem since long time. We have even some All-In-One installer (it works for windows and linux) which includes AMX X 1.75a, mm 1.19 and latest pb mm V3. Just need to unzip everything into Your ...\cstrike directory (let overwrite Your existing files, but maybe make a backup of them before).

I believe You installed something incorrectly and THE_STORM will help You to get AMX X working with EPODBOT (epb probably must be installed as mm plugin). Check Your metamod's plugins.ini (located in ...\cstrike\addons\metamod folder) and Your liblist.gam (located in ...\cstrike folder).
liblist.gam should point to metamod, plugins.ini should point to amx x and to epodbot.

Re: people cannot connect + amx x goes to crap
 

As the colleague KWo said you must make liblist.gam to point your metamod, and metamod plugins.ini must point EPB and AMXX.
Add this line to your plugins.ini file
win32 EPODbot\EPB.dll
and edit the line in liblist.gam to point metamod, the needed line must looks like that
gamedll "addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.dll"
Thats all. :)

ok, and as for users not being able to connect, are there any suggestions? I just re-installed the server without EPD and users can connect again. Before i go at installing EPB again, i'd like to be sure users can connect.

If you do this steps they will connect.

well..........i just did these steps, and i'm having the same problem

Re: people cannot connect + amx x goes to crap
 

Post the contents of Your metamod's plugins.ini and liblist.gam here.
Write in Your console:
meta list
and copy here the contents of it.
Did You try to use the All-In-One I told You before?
What are Your settings for maxbots for EPB? What is Your setting for mp_maxplayers on Your server?
Note - maxbots has to be always below mp_maxplayers.

also, now i don't get a STEAM_ID in my server, it stays at STEAM_ID_PENDING, but i get a STEAM_ID to show up in other people's servers

Re: people cannot connect + amx x goes to crap
 

EPB must be on the last line in plugins.ini not in the first.
