The cs 1.6 advertiser plugin (Ad Manager, version 0.5) posts automatic messages in the chat of your counter-strike 1.6 server – server rules, website, VIP info, Discord link. It also works as an autoresponder: when a player types a keyword, the server replies automatically.

Everything is set in one text file, advertisements.ini, without touching the code. Below: Counter-Strike 1.6 Ad Manager amxx download, installation and the full config syntax with examples.

CS 1.6 Advertiser amxx and sma download

Download CS 1.6 Ad Manager Plugin (.ZIP)

The ZIP contains ad_manager.amxx, the .sma source and a sample advertisements.ini.

Install the cs 1.6 ads plugin

  1. Upload ad_manager.amxx to cstrike/addons/amxmodx/plugins/
  2. Add ad_manager.amxx on a new line in configs/plugins.ini
  3. Upload the sample advertisements.ini to cstrike/addons/amxmodx/configs/ and edit it with your own messages
  4. Restart the server or change the map, then check with amx_plugins that it is running

advertisements.ini – chat ads, autoresponder and conditions

Timed chat ads

Write one message per line. The plugin shows them one by one at random intervals of about 60-80 seconds.

!gWelcome to our server! !nVisit !tcsdownload.net
!gVIP info: !ntype !t/vip in chat
Color code Color in chat
!g Green
!t Team color (red for T, blue for CT)
!n Normal (yellow)

Autoresponder – reply to keywords

Start the line with @, then the keyword, a tilde ~ and the reply:

@report~To report a cheater, write to an admin or post on our forum
@rules~No cheats, no spam, no insults

When a player writes report in chat, the server answers with the text after ~. This saves admins from answering the same question again and again.

Conditions – map and player count

Start the line with %, write the condition, close it with %, then add ~ and the message:

Condition Message shows when
%map de_dust2% The current map is de_dust2
%min_players 6% At least 6 players are on the server
%max_players 5% At most 5 players are on the server

Conditions can be combined on one line:

%map de_dust2%min_players 10%~The map is de_dust2 and the server is busy!
%max_players 5%~Invite your friends - the server is almost empty

Advertiser plugin not working – what to check

  • No messages in chat: advertisements.ini is not in amxmodx/configs/, or it is empty
  • Color codes show as text: check that you used !g, !t and !n exactly, with lowercase letters
  • Autoresponder does not reply: the line must start with @ and contain ~ between the keyword and the reply
  • Condition message never shows: check the map name and player numbers, and that every condition is closed with %
  • Messages appear twice: another advertisement plugin is running. Keep only one

To stop players from flooding the same chat, see the anti flood plugin. More tools: cs 1.6 admin commands list. Players without the game can get the Counter-Strike 1.6 download here.
