redirect tutorial clarification

[hlds_noob]

Did you mean to say +port twice in the following,

cd\game installs\hldsbase
hlds.exe -game cstrike +port +maxplayers 32 +port 27000 -console +hostname "Redirect #1"

It is also there in the sample .bat code further down.

I almost forgot, Why not create the .bat file from the start ?

Yet another question ?

How does windows know to use amxmodx and the xredirect redirect plugin for all of the servers ?

I sure didn't! Fixed now.

In this case, it's necessary to start them by hand in order to determine how many can be run overall, before adding that many to the .bat file.

More generally, it's always a good idea to break out steps in instructions and include test steps, as it allows those following the procedure to catch any mistakes early on, when there are fewer factors involved.

Once you have it configured for one server, that same configuration will be used for all of the others that are started from the same directory, as they share files.

When I tried installing "amxmodx" using the installer, it installed it into another program files directory called "Program Files (x86)".

DID you install amxmodx into the "C:\Game installs\hldsbase\dod\addons" last night or today, Because it was not installed when I went to bed last night ?

You should install it into the folder for the game ("C:\Game installs\hldsbase\dod\addons", as you mentioned). Nobody here would have adjusted your server, if it's unmanaged -- those are opaque to us .
