Nice.

Re: [TF2]Player's TF2items.com backpack
 

I just tried this out on my linux server. It works excellently.

Thank you so much for this.
The many people in my servers thank you.

EDIT: I do find it occasionally says "invalid target" even though it will work on the same guy the next time I type it, but it's rare. As it is, this plugin is excellent.

Re: [TF2]Player's TF2items.com backpack
 

Results:
Filename: MotdBackPack.smx
Load error: Unable to load plugin (error 1: Unrecognizable file format)

And i cant recompile it since there is no source for the plugin attached :cry:

Re: [TF2]Player's TF2items.com backpack
 

Source is attached at the top. It would be illegal for me to supply a compiled plugin without supplying its source code.

Don't forget to add the CSsteamID.inc to your scripting/includes

Re: [TF2]Player's TF2items.com backpack
 

Rather a coincidence when I requested this on the TF2Items channels a few days ago.. and tada, now someone has created it, hah.

Re: [TF2]Player's TF2items.com backpack
 

Excellent plugin, and here's a suggestion:

Make the !backpack/!bp command open a menu with the players list, then you choose the player you want to see the backpack.

;)

Re: [TF2]Player's TF2items.com backpack
 

Thank you its on the todo list

In the mean time you can make your own custom menu.

Also you don't have to use the full players name,

Like for me you could just do !backpack Mun and it should still bring up my backpack

Re: [TF2]Player's TF2items.com backpack
 

Plugin updated

Added an Advert

Make the advert as a plugin cvar so it can be disabled :).
