No I wasn't aware (any screenshots?). Maybe I just don't comprehend how this is supposed to work. Based on what I read, this extension and the plugin let you use the in-game vote panel instead of the sourcemod panel for plugin related votes, right? Or at least that is what I'm trying to do. If that's what it is, what I have to do? If it's not that, then I don't get it. I tried both the extension and the plugin, but I saw no difference (just the sourcemod vote panel).
BuiltinVotes and NativeVotes aren't drop-in replacements for the SourceMod voting system. They have their own commands... things like NativeVotes_Create instead of CreateMenu and NativeVotes_AddItem instead of AddMenuItem, etc...

Note that Yes/No votes will do nothing for NativeVotes_AddItem... L4D and L4D2 (and now CS:GO thanks to Valve meddling) only support Yes/No votes in their builtin/native vote screens.

The NativeVotes thread is supposed to have a guide for porting plugins from the SourceMod Vote system to the NativeVotes system in the second post, but it looks like I never wrote it (whoops).
