​
Step 1: Metamod Installation

Metamod acts as the bridge between the game engine and external plugins.
  1. Create the directory /cstrike/addons/metamod/dlls/.
  2. Upload the metamod.dll (Windows) or metamod_i386.so (Linux).
  3. Activation: Open /cstrike/liblist.gam and update the gamedll path to point toward your new Metamod file.

​
Step 2: AMX Mod X Setup

AMX Mod X (AMXX) provides the actually administrative and scripting interface.
  1. Download the AMX Mod X Base and Cstrike Addon packages.
  2. Extract the contents directly into your /cstrike/ directory.
  3. Admin Rights: Open /cstrike/addons/amxmodx/configs/users.ini and add your identifier. Example: "Steam_0:0:12345" "" "abcdefghijklmnopqrstu" "ce"
