[HELP][L4D] The Special Hint Box
Hi, I'm a bit new to this area so please forgive me if my question is obvious. I've searched on the issue but gotten no answers.
Left 4 Dead has a special hint text. The old HL2 hint text is still there but a new one appears in L4D that appears to be independent. My issue arises when I have no idea how to access it. I've used this page so far in order to get the name of a text in association with GetUserMessageId, but I haven't seen a list that tells the L4D special hint text's name. Anyone that can help me out here is credit to team :D edit: also a way to print to this hint box would be great, thanks! |
Re: [HELP][L4D] The Special Hint Box
alternatively a way to add lines to the left4dead_english.txt language file without actually being required to manually do so would be sweet!

If you can figure out how to access the L4D hint text box, please let the rest of us know :D.

What does all that stuff mean? I would love to be able to send custom text messages in L4D like scores or spawn notifications etc.

Re: [HELP][L4D] The Special Hint Box
As you can see they're called user messages. Look at usermessages.inc to see how to create them.

Re: [HELP][L4D] The Special Hint Box
I looked at usermessages.inc, and the wiki. There isn't much on how to use the stuff. But I agree Downtown, it would be awesome to be able to send custom messages.

It's reverse engineered, but it works fine and has been up since L4D was released. |
Re: [HELP][L4D] The Special Hint Box
Mmm.
Do any of the usermessages support keyvalue-based messages? You can set the RGB color of text when using a keyvalue so I'm curious. (Actually chat message would be awesome) |
Re: [HELP][L4D] The Special Hint Box
Has anyone made any progress on this? :D

Hello,
I want to start a new server in L4D, the revived RUS COOP 16 if someone knows it :) However, I want to finally know how the Hinttext thing works. |
