Is there any simple way to replace the default blood sprite of the blood effect that occurs when you hit the target? ( not the one splattered on the wall, but the one that's actualy like a fountain )

you can try hooking SVC_TEMPENTITY message

public plugin_init()
{
    ....

    register_message(SVC_TEMPENTITY, "OnMessageTempEntity");
}

public OnMessageTempEntity()
{
    if (get_msg_arg_int(1) != TE_BLOODSPRITE)
        return;

    set_msg_arg_int(5, ARG_SHORT, ....); // here comes the precached bloodspray sprite index
    set_msg_arg_int(6, ARG_SHORT, ....); // here comes the precached blood drop sprite index
}

or by hooking UTIL_BloodDrips function and overwriting it.

What do you think would be the best?

hooking UTIL_BloodDrips function

would be better, but you need Orpheu for that. Anyway, its up to you.

i'd like to stick without orpheu
but isn't there any way to replace these sprites on map start?

i'd like to stick without orpheu

Why?

[Depresie]

im trying to keep everything as basic as i can for now, since im working on a very big project, and i kind of lose track of things... Also, i don't have any experience with orpheu... I might use it later, when i get to optimizing
