Just a stab in the dark

Read about your problem, and i am no expert at this. I did however come across someone elses settings here:

http://www.amxmodx.org/forums/viewtopic ... 0820006fe6

I noticed these lines in particular:

; Custom - Add 3rd party plugins here
admin_llama.amxx ;admin_llama
amx_exec.amxx ;amx_exec
;amx_gore_ultimate.amxx ;ultimate gore <- causes crash
amx_shutdown.amxx ;timed server shutdown
flop10.amxx ;The Flop 10!
lastmanbets.amxx ;Bet on the last 2 fighters
;nsx_MySQL.amxx ;easy add admins to MySQL
UTSoundsX.amxx ;UT Sounds X
UTFirstBlood.amxx ;First Blood

Please notice the remarks next to amx_gore_ultimate.amxx, and notice how this has been disabled because it causes crash.

Just a thought!! I wouldn't take much of an efford to try it out.

Good luck.

I use theses plugins on my server:

deagsmapmanage230b
warcraft3FT
uaio_admin
uaio_manager
amxx_atac.2.5.5.1a
amxx_atac_cfg
swear_replacement
no_reconnect
hpk
pbk
map_cvars
amx_ejl_dice
public_rules
hlguard
steambans

I have been using war3ft for some time now and I find that quite a lot of maps will crash my server due to if I remember right the 512 brush stroke limit. Please correct me if I'm wrong Geesu :!: You can only precache a certain about of things and if you go over the limit the server will crash so I test the maps on another linux box before I upload them to my server :!:

@Geesu
I have been using 2.3.1 RC and I runs pretty well any news on the updates that was talked about for the next version :?:

Yea there is a limit of 512... So some things don't work well, this is why some DOD maps do not work...

Didnt touch a thing other than that. still hasnt crashed. This is the most reliable its been since I had it on cs 1.5 some years back. You should try it on your to see if it works there too. Win Xp doesnt like the debugging too much. Its been alot less laggy too. :D

Don't run in debug anyways. It hurts your performance severely. Something like 5 times as slow according to BAIL's benchmarks.
