Admin Mod plug-in file

File type category:
Plugin, addon file

Date updated: September 24, 2026

Admin Mod plug-ins are compiled from their source code into .amx files. The compiled file contains the plug-in code that Admin Mod executes on a game server.

Admin Mod is compatible with all Half-Life-based games that are compatible with Metamod. The plug-in works as part of an Admin Mod installation rather than as a standalone application or document.

Admin Mod and its plug-in format were designed for Windows, Linux and FreeBSD game servers. The format is now mainly associated with older or legacy Half-Life server installations.

How to open amx file?

An .amx file is not normally opened as a document. Install it in the plug-in location used by Admin Mod, then configure the Admin Mod server to load it. On Windows, use the Windows version of the game server and Admin Mod; Linux and FreeBSD installations use their corresponding server software.

A text editor may display the file's binary contents, but this will not show the plug-in source or provide a way to run it outside Admin Mod.

How to convert amx file?

There is no useful general-purpose conversion for an .amx plug-in file. It must remain in the compiled format expected by Admin Mod.

If the plug-in source is available, it can be edited and compiled again with the appropriate Admin Mod plug-in development tools. Without the source, changing the file to another format generally cannot preserve a usable plug-in.
