CS 1.6 Auto Redirect Plugin – Move Players to New Server IP

Last updated: October 3, 2026

The cs 1.6 auto redirect plugin moves players from your old server to a new server IP. Install it on the old server: when a player connects, the plugin sends them to the new address. Use it when you change cs 1.6 server IP and want to keep the players who still have the old IP in their favorites.

Non-Steam players are connected to the new server automatically. Steam players can block the automatic connect, so they stay frozen on the old server with the new IP on screen until they leave.

How CS 1.6 redirect works for Non-Steam and Steam players

The Counter-Strike 1.6 redirect to new server amxx plugin treats every player the same way. Every 0.5 seconds after a player joins, it:

• Freezes the player – no moving, shooting or jumping. The buy, buyequip and fullupdate commands are blocked too
• Opens the info screen ip_info.html with your new IP. If the player closes it, it opens again half a second later
• Sends the connect command to the new IP and prints the new address in the player’s console

Non-Steam players usually accept the connect command and land on the new server right away. Steam players can block commands sent by the server, so they stay frozen with the info screen open and have to connect to the new IP themselves. Bots and HLTV are not affected.

Set the new server IP in the .sma file

Open auto_redirect_player.sma in a text editor and find g_ServerIPs:

By default it holds one placeholder IP:

new const g_ServerIPs[][] = {
    "127.0.0.1:27015" // If you have only ONE server, no comma needed here.
};

Replace 127.0.0.1:27015 with your new server IP and port. For several servers, list them with a comma after each IP except the last:

new const g_ServerIPs[][] = {
    "1.2.3.4:27015",
    "1.2.3.5:27015",
    "1.2.3.6:27015"
};

• One new server: keep a single line with your IP and no comma at the end
• Several servers: the plugin picks a random IP from the list for each connect attempt, which spreads players across your servers

Edit the new IP info screen (ip_info.html)

Open ip_info.html and replace:

• YOUR_IP:PORT with the new server address
• YOUR_LINK with your website or Discord link

Install the cs 1.6 redirect plugin

Requires AMX Mod X with the fakemeta module enabled in configs/modules.ini.

1. After editing the .sma, compile it to auto_redirect_player.amxx with the AMXX compiler or the online sma to amxx compiler
2. Upload auto_redirect_player.amxx to cstrike/addons/amxmodx/plugins/ on the old server
3. Upload ip_info.html to cstrike/addons/amxmodx/configs/
4. Add auto_redirect_player.amxx on a new line in configs/plugins.ini
5. Restart the server or change the map, then check with amx_plugins that CSDOWNLOAD.NET Redirect & Freeze Plugin is running

Auto redirect not working – what to check

• Compile error: a missing or extra comma in g_ServerIPs – only the last IP has no comma
• Info screen is empty: ip_info.html is not in amxmodx/configs/
• Non-Steam player is not moved: check the new IP and port, and that the new server is online
• You cannot play on the old server yourself: the plugin has no admin immunity – admins are frozen and redirected too. To log in, disable the plugin in plugins.ini and change the map
• Plugin fails to load: the fakemeta module is not enabled
• Plugin installed on the wrong server: it belongs on the old server, not the new one – otherwise it redirects players away from your new server

Want players to choose between your servers instead of an automatic move? Use the server redirect plugin with /server menu. To bring players to the new IP faster, see cs 1.6 boost service. Players without the game can get the CS 1.6 download here.
