[TF2] Hide Players

Hide Players
Hide player models, projectiles, and sounds. Useful for skill maps.

Description:
This plugin is designed for Jump Servers. It lets clients hide all other players from their screen, which is quite useful when playing skill maps in crowded areas, plus you also can't be bumped by other players while hide is enabled so it feels like you are playing alone.

Command List:
sm_hide - Toggles hide on yourself.
sm_hide_reload - [Admin Command] Run this command if you reload the plugin while players are in the server.

CVAR List:
sm_hide_explosions <0/1> (Default: 1) - Hide Explosions Globally. 1 = Hide Explosions, 0 = Don't Hide Explosions

Dependencies:
SDK Hooks

Special Thanks:
All the jumpers that helped beta test.

Known Issues:

As far as I can tell there is no way to disable explosions on a per-person basis. So there is an included cvar "sm_hide_explosions" (defaulted to hide explosions) that will disable all explosions for everyone.
Removes more sounds then it probably should.

Other Notes:

Haven't worked on this for a while, I'm pretty sure it all works but please post bugs if you find them.
This plugin is designed for TF2, but it would probably work on other mods as well. The only TF2 specific parts I remember is a string array of entity names to be hidden, located at the top of the file. So if you wanted to use it on another mod you could probably just change that to the relevant entities.

Changelog:
v0.1.5 (2011-01-26)
* Minor bug fixes

v0.1.4 (2010-11-16)
* Minor bug fixes

v0.1.3 (2010-11-15)

Re: [TF2] Hide Players

PHP Code:


		
			
public Action:SoundHook(clients[MAXPLAYERS], &numClients, String:sample[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH], &entity, &channel, &Float:volume, &level, &pitch, &flags)

Should probably be MAXPLAYERS+1.

And you should change this line:

PHP Code:


		
			
if(owner < 1 || owner > MAXPLAYERS)

to MaxClients to prevent any possible problems.

Though both MAXPLAYERS and MAXPLAYERS+1 will work (unless you try to access the 65th member), it's currently at a hardcoded 64 in callback listed in the inc to match the array passed from sdktools.

PHP Code:


		
			
pFunc->PushArray(players, 64, SM_PARAM_COPYBACK);

Code:

functag public Action:NormalSHook(clients[64], &numClients, String:sample[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH], &entity, &channel, &Float:volume, &level, &pitch, &flags);

Re: [TF2] Hide Players

Well, I'm not sure what caused that, so I just added some range checks to try to catch anything out of bounds...

Update

v0.1.5 (2011-01-26)

Re: [TF2] Hide Players

Someone requested a version that doesn't remove sound.

v0.1.5.ns

Re: [TF2] Hide Players

@ GNCMatt

Code:

AddNormalSoundHook(NormalSHook:SoundHook);
AddTempEntHook("TFExplosion", TEHook:TEHookTest);

Harmless, but you don't need to tag SoundHook and TEHookTest here. The tags are only in the native's declaration to force you to use functions of those types as parameters (which you are).

Re: [TF2] Hide Players

Plugin not working anymore

Can anyone check this please?
