[L4D&L4D2] Remove Survivor Glow

Since the use of "ClientCommand" was removed, we are very limited in the actions that are performed on the client side, probably for the security of the clients, but it affects a lot in certain plugins already created, and in the plugins that we are creating, especially those of us who are initiated.

I recently released an updated version of the Counter-Strike mode for L4D, with improvements and solutions, but there is something that I have not been able to remove from the client's side, it is the glow of the survivors, so I ask for help from the most experienced, What solutions are there? What can I do to remove the blillo from the survivors? both on the server and on the client's side.

NOTE: This could also be used to create a realistic mode in L4D1.

Hahahaha sorry, my mistake.
I suppose if you understand what I mean :wink:

Re: [L4D&L4D2] Remove Survivor Glow

I think realism mode has no glows,
Another alternative is to set the glow with "glowoverride" to RGB 1 1 1, looks fine to the models, but looks like need to apply to weapons/items either.

Re: [L4D&L4D2] Remove Survivor Glow

I think this is what that gamemode toggles in l4d2 to disable glows,

PHP Code:


		
			
m_bSurvivorGlowEnabled (offset 16384) (type integer) (bits 1) (Unsigned)

i'v not tested but just a guess from a name.

For l4d1 only thing i can think of is using sendproxy perplayer entprop version i don't remember which github fork it is on, to set everyone to see everyone else on different teams or
If infected are going to be disabled for CS gamemode

PHP Code:


		
			
SetEntPropFloat(client, Prop_Send, "m_itTimer", 9999999.0, 1);

doing that everytime they respawn, altho this does blur the screen abit out of ideas for l4d1 sorry.

If you're right, but this in l4D1 obviously will not work, since you need the "ClientCommand", in L4D2 you do not need the realism mode because it already exists, I was referring to L4D1, but thanks for answering :3

I have used the "m_bSurvivorGlowEnabled" but it has not worked for me, maybe I'm doing it wrong, but I just did a test.

PHP Code:


		
			
public void OnPluginStart() 

{ 

    RegAdminCmd("sm_glow", ToggleSurvivorGlow, ADMFLAG_ROOT, "Toggles the survivor glow"); 

} 



public Action ToggleSurvivorGlow(int client, int args) 

{ 

    for (new i = 1; i <= MAXPLAYERS; i++)

    {

        SetEntProp(i, Prop_Send, "m_bSurvivorGlowEnabled", 0);

        SetEntProp(i, Prop_Send, "m_glowColorOverride", 0);

    }

}

So I need more help, hopefully someone can help me with this removal of the glow. :cry:

Thank you very much bro, but that only works in L4D2 and with the "ClientCommand", what I need is for L4D1, since that is where the situation is more difficult xD

Re: [L4D&L4D2] Remove Survivor Glow

Hello, using the sv_glowenable 0 - 1 cvar works, but only on the local server, it changes for everyone who is connected.
