DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Conversion of the SAS Hide & Seek EventScripts plugin by Colster and strontiumdog to SourceMod. All credit goes out to them for making the original. Thanks to strontiumdog for the third person script for SourceMod.

Cvars
sm_hidenseek_enabled (0/1, default 1)
Enable/disable DoD:S Hide & Seek.

sm_hidenseek_min (default 3)
Minimum players required for DoD:S Hide & Seek. I wouldn't recommend setting this lower than 3.

sm_hidenseek_random (0/1, default 0)
Enable/disable random models for DoD:S Hide & Seek.

sm_hidenseek_switch (0/1, default 1)
Enable/disable in-round model switching for DoD:S Hide & Seek. This allows you to aim at a model in-game, press your use key and it'll allow you to change to it.

sm_hidenseek_3rd (0/1, default 1)
Enable/disable switching players to third person on spawn for DoD:S Hide & Seek.

sm_hidenseek_winlimit (default 6)
Maximum rounds before a map change for DoD:S Hide & Seek.

Commands
You can bind +3rd/-3rd to any key to switch from first person view to third person and back.

This plugin is still alpha, it doesn't work that well yet, but there's only so much you can test with yourself and a couple of bots :P I just wanted to get it out there, maybe you guys can run it and see what bugs you can find.

Hi DJ Tsunami!
a first lob your work are very well continue so :-)
had me hide and seek on my server, and tried to play works even game starts and turns, the control is very difficult when the first wehrmacht soldier have been killed, he is flying right from the server when the second soldier W erschlägt the object, the server and is down from the console says he does not est_ to him missing what the errors lie?

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Those est_ commands are probably from ES Tools and has nothing to do with my plugin. Make sure you remove anything EventScripts related.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

sourcemod now only have it and when I hideandseek game in the first round beat a player stops the server

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Whats can i say GREAT MOD!!!! we have been waiting for this since mani stopped working properly , the only thing is it crashed the server after the first round :(
Lookforward to updates. :)

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Hello,

I'm testing the plugin in our server. We have the SourceMod v1.1.0.2434.

The plugin does not work for us. It says "the round will start..." but when the round starts, the hiders are invisible for everyone.

The menu with the models doesn't appears. The seekers can't see the hiders because they are invisible.

The switch key does not work :(

In wich version of sourcemod you run this plugin ?
I want this plugin in my server running. I'm waiting for it a lot of time !!

Continue with your work. This plugin will be great !

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

I also crashed running one of the latest builds MetaMod:Source v1.6.2.703V, SourceMod v1.1.0.2431. Windows.

The round start was not a problem, the menu and models all work ok, I can't nail down what the crashes were from yet, it was always associated with an axis killing a allied player when it crashed.

3D person "steering" is not popular and people struggle with it.

I will see if I can get more info. The little I have played with it ... I love it even with the crashes.

Damn it's good to see this is making a come back.... very popular mod in our clan. Also running your gun game... works very well.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Yep
SM is quickly replacing ES as the DoDS plugin standard since ES_Tools died.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Great step, thx DJ :up:

if we only could get that randompick / and roundwin to work - that would be great! I am not so familiar with sm as with es :cry: ...

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Alrighty, I updated it, and switching works now. Unfortunately a lot of models (like sandbags and crates) are compiled into the map, so you can't always switch to those. Also it only allows you to switch to models that are in the config. I'm not sure if the crashing is fixed yet.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Still crashing for me, was a little more stable.
Was still... MetaMod:Source v1.6.2.703V, SourceMod v1.1.0.2431. Windows.

I will update my sourcemod directory to latest and see what happens.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Ok tried it again with the latest snapshot.... and removed all other plugins.
Still crashes hard, one thing that happens is it is when an allied player is killed or class swap.

MetaMod:Source v1.6.2.703V, SourceMod v1.1.0.2462. Windows

Sorry I can't be of more help :(

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

I have rolled back SourceMod and a lot of other stuff is now working.
What I did notice was that I cam play as long as I like with Bots on the server...
"sv_cheats 1" then "bot" three times. The mod is rock solid.

But, the first time I had a person join... as soon as he killed me the server crashed, the last stroke of his shovel... bang... hard crash. I was the last allied player, the three bots were dead.

Using MetaMod:Source v1.6.2.703V, SourceMod v1.1.$PREVISION.2339 Windows server.

Tried again, 3 bots and I allied, another player joined, he slayed me ok (the bots were still alive) , I got put on to the axis side, while in spawn, myself and the other player got this message...
http://www.dodbits.com/downloads/posts/hands_error.JPG

The server stayed up, but every time myself and the other player went to the server, as soon as we seleted a team we crashed our client PCs with that message and the server remained up... no one could join it until I changed the map via HLSW.

Hope this helps.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

That would explain why it's working better for me, I do most of my testing with bots (although Mosalar is helping me out with getting it tested with real players). I'm having trouble finding the time to work on this or Zombie Mod at the moment, but will try to get on it ASAP.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Thank you, it is hard to get people to test, I understand completely. I have a few willing clan members I can always rely on :)

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

This runs all the time, not just in the bonus round (after one of the teams wins).

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Tsunami, did anyone ever find any answers to the crashing issue.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

The difficult part, apart from finding time, is being able to test it with real people. I just don't know any people that would bother to test with me for a couple of hours straight, and have a server that I could have access to.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

hey dj tsunami, if you need testing time with real people i can help you out. i have a server and members willing to test this out on. pm me or email me [email protected]

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

I used this Plugin and here is my advise
1 When a US soilder turn to a Hiden orbject,he cant use mouse freely .I mean he move the mouse and his sight must change with the movement.But in this plugin the angle of view cant change.
2 Player change to third person must bind one button.And when become frist person viewsight I must press the button and not loose the button to turn to be third person.If i dont press the button i cant be third person viewsight only in frist.U can make the plugin to maintain third person .
3 U can also make this function：type -3rd or +3rd in chat area to change and dont need to bind a button.

My english is not very good so some trouble may be make u couldnt get my full meanings ,I wish u unstand.
Here is my translations for chinese language I wish it usefull
This works well in my serve

I wish DJ can fix this trouble.THX

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

I found the Problems then crash a server is it the same Problem of Zombie mod the Problem are a few Maps how are TNT

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Hi ya DJ Tsunami, no progress?

Just letting you know I have a second Windows 16 person server for my clan.

If you need a group of live players to test run any versions and report back, let me know.... contact...
http://dodbits.com/index.php?option=...ntact&Itemid=3

I can just pull them from our main server, test and report back, one every day if you like, the clan is fine with testing stuff, always get volunteers.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

I will probably contact you next week to see if we can get something going.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

No worries, take your time, far better to do this when relaxed and not so busy. The server is still up and not going anywhere :)

Worth doing right this plugin.

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Heyy,

so quite a while ago, I used to play on this ONE and ONLY hide and seek server and I always had a BLAST. I'm not sure if this is a different version of the hide and seek but that server always ran flawlessly and I never witnessed a crash. (VS this version which seems still in alpha)

Now that I now have my own server, I want to host my own hide and seek server so that I could play with the many other people who have been dieing to find another one of those servers.

PLEASE try to give this mod another shot/ or just finish it up. (or link me to a more recent version of this mod)

THANKS A MILLION

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Hi, just wondering im guessing this is now a dead mod ? doesnt seem like its been updated in a while, rather a shame as i was going to be useing this watched it for a few months, i have sourcemod and not mani as its too exploited :(

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

is this topic active or dead i was looking for a plugin like this for my dods server to have fun on special nights. Any ideas?

Re: DoD:S Hide & Seek (Alpha)
 

Trask.. Get outa here, this topic is pretty old and I think unsupported, but I'm gonna test it out on my server and see if it's still running.
