Serverside overlays

I was curious if anyone knew an extension that allows for custom overlays to be displayed to clients?

Also do server side overlays go in

root/overlays/...
or
root/overlay/...

Re: Serverside overlays

There is no such thing as a server-side overlay, the concept doesn't even make sense - the server doesn't draw anything.

Re: Serverside overlays

PHP Code:


		
			
int iFlags = GetCommandFlags("r_screenoverlay") & (~FCVAR_CHEAT);
SetCommandFlags("r_screenoverlay", iFlags);    
ClientCommand(client, "r_screenoverlay \"your_overlay\"", );

Re: Serverside overlays

you can use these stocks I made:

PHP Code:


		
			
// Easy precache & prepare download for decals

stock void PrecacheDecalAnyDownload(char[] sDecal)

{

    char sBuffer[256];

    Format(sBuffer, sizeof(sBuffer), "%s.vmt", sDecal);

    PrecacheDecal(sBuffer, true);

    Format(sBuffer, sizeof(sBuffer), "materials/%s.vmt", sDecal);

    AddFileToDownloadsTable(sBuffer);

    

    Format(sBuffer, sizeof(sBuffer), "%s.vtf", sDecal);

    PrecacheDecal(sBuffer, true);

    Format(sBuffer, sizeof(sBuffer), "materials/%s.vtf", sDecal);

    AddFileToDownloadsTable(sBuffer);

}



// Easy show overlay to a client with lifetime | 0.0 = no auto remove

stock void ShowOverlay(int client, char[] path, float lifetime)

{

    if (IsValidClient(client, false, true))

    {

        int iFlag = GetCommandFlags("r_screenoverlay") & (~FCVAR_CHEAT);

        SetCommandFlags("r_screenoverlay", iFlag);

        ClientCommand(client, "r_screenoverlay \"%s.vtf\"", path);

        if (lifetime != 0.0) CreateTimer(lifetime, DeleteOverlay, client);

    }

}



// Easy show overlay to all clients with lifetime | 0.0 = no auto remove

stock void ShowOverlayAll(char[] path, float deletetime) 

{

    for (int i = 1; i <= MaxClients; i++) if (IsValidClient(i, false, true))

    {

        int iFlag = GetCommandFlags("r_screenoverlay") & (~FCVAR_CHEAT);

        SetCommandFlags("r_screenoverlay", iFlag);

        ClientCommand(i, "r_screenoverlay \"%s.vtf\"", path);

        if (deletetime != 0.0) CreateTimer(deletetime, DeleteOverlay, i);

    }

}



// Remove overlay from a client

stock Action DeleteOverlay(Handle timer, any client) 

{

    if (IsValidClient(client, false, true))

    {

        int iFlag = GetCommandFlags("r_screenoverlay") & (~FCVAR_CHEAT);

        SetCommandFlags("r_screenoverlay", iFlag);

        ClientCommand(client, "r_screenoverlay \"\"");

    }

}
