How To Install Plugins For Your CSS Server
Installing plugins on your CSS server can enhance gameplay and add new features. Game Host Bros makes it easy to enable SourceMod, which is required for most plugins.
How To Enable SourceMod

- Navigate to
Configuration > Startup Parameters
in the left sidebar. - Find the
Enable Sourcemod
option and change its value to1
. - Restart your server.
How To Install Plugins
Once SourceMod is enabled, you can start adding plugins to your server:
- In the sidebar go to
Management > File Manager
. - Navigate to the
cstrike/addons/sourcemod/plugins/
directory. - Upload your plugin files (usually ending in .smx) to this directory.
- Restart your server or use the
sm plugins refresh
command in the server console.
How To Install Extensions
Some plugins require additional extensions to function properly. Here’s how to install them:
- In the file manager, go to the
cstrike/addons/sourcemod/extensions/
directory. - Upload the extension files (ending in .so for Linux) to this directory.
- If the extension came with a .cfg file, upload it to
cstrike/cfg/sourcemod/
. - Restart your server.
Always make sure you’re using extensions compatible with Linux and your SourceMod version.
