Well, I'm trying to write a plugin to hide player names when you put your crosshair over them. This is for The Specialists. Here's what I have:

#include <amxmodx>

public plugin_init()
{
	register_plugin("Xavier-HPN", "1.0", "Xavier")
	
	register_cvar("amx_hidenames", "1")
}

public client_putinserver(id)
{
	if (get_cvar_num("amx_hidenames") <= 1)
		set_cvar_num("cl_drawnames", 0)
	else
		set_cvar_num("cl_drawnames", 1)
}

public client_disconnect(id)
{
	set_cvar_num("cl_drawnames", 1)
}

The thing is, I don't think cl_drawnames works in TS. I tried it, but it had no effect. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help.

First off, you're posting in the wrong forum.

I'm moving this for you to the correct forum. Next time, read the forum descriptions.

cl_ cvars are client side. You trying to change the cvar on the server.
Changing clients's cvars is slowhacking.
You can't change clients's cvars or execute commands on a client in client_disconnect. Client_disconnect is called after the client has disconnected.

You can use this plugin to achieve it.

I would help, but potatis is right. This is basically slowhacking, so no support for you. Read the rules.

There is no cl_drawnames in TS 3.0 (or any version as far as I know). Quite a few have attempted to remove the "HUD" but few have succeeded (and those who have haven't publicly released it).

Thanks for all of the help. It's appreciated.

Oh shoot, I forgot to mention. The method I know works in DoD will probably work in your silly "specialists" game too

Simply set ES_SolidState to SOLID_NOT in AddToFullPack and when you put your mouse over them, it will not show their names. I'm assuming that's what cl_drawnames alters. If you need help doing this, reply and I'll post some code.

An example illustrating this would be nice, yes. And thank you.

new g_cvarEnabled;

public plugin_init() {
    register_plugin( PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR );
    register_forward( FM_AddToFullPack, "hook_AddToFullPack_post", 1 );
    
    g_cvarEnabled = register_cvar( "dod_blockicons", "0" );
}

public hook_AddToFullPack_post( es_handle, e, entid, host, hostflags, player, pSet ) {
    if( !player || !is_user_alive( entid ) || !get_pcvar_num( g_cvarEnabled ) ) return FMRES_IGNORED;
    
    // Set user's Solid Type to SOLID_NOT
    set_es( es_handle, ES_Solid, SOLID_NOT );
    return FMRES_HANDLED;
}
