Light on func_targer model entity

DarthMan · **Author**

Hello. For the info_target entity, how can I make the model to be brighter ?
I mean that after the task is executed, the model should be brighter than it was before.
The entity uses a variable ent_info_target so it should look for that 1 and set the light.

Code:

entity_set_model(ent_info_target, model_path)

This code sets the model of the entity, and the model_path is defined to look for the map name and set the model according to the name of the map but I failed at making it brighter on task execution.
Thanks !

Not sure if this will help, but here u go:

Code:

#include <amxmodx>
#include <fakemeta>
//#include <hamsandwich>
//#include <D7Debug>

public plugin_init()
{
    register_plugin("D7 Render Entities Map", "0.0.5", "D i 5 7 i n c T")
    
    set_pev(0, pev_rendermode, kRenderTransTexture);
    set_pev(0, pev_renderamt, 128.0)
    
    new iIDEnt = -1, iSzLenght;
    
    while ((iIDEnt = engfunc(EngFunc_FindEntityInSphere, iIDEnt, Float:{ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 }, 9000.0)) != 0)
    {
        if (!pev_valid(iIDEnt))
            continue;
        
        static szEntInfo[32];
        pev(iIDEnt, pev_classname, szEntInfo, charsmax(szEntInfo))
        
        //ftD7Log(_, _, "[plugin_init] iIDEnt: %d. Class name: ^"%s^".", iIDEnt, szEntInfo)
        
        pev(iIDEnt, pev_model, szEntInfo, charsmax(szEntInfo))
        
        //ftD7Log(_, _, "[plugin_init] iIDEnt: %d. Model: ^"%s^".^n", iIDEnt, szEntInfo)
        
        if (szEntInfo[0] != '*')
        {
            iSzLenght = strlen(szEntInfo);
            
            if (iSzLenght < 4)
                continue;
            
            if (equali(szEntInfo[iSzLenght - 4], ".mdl"))
            {
                set_pev(iIDEnt, pev_rendermode, kRenderNormal)
                set_pev(iIDEnt, pev_renderfx, kRenderFxGlowShell)
                set_pev(iIDEnt, pev_rendercolor, Float:{ 255.0, 255.0, 255.0 })
                set_pev(iIDEnt, pev_renderamt, 15.0)
            }
            else if (equali(szEntInfo[iSzLenght - 4], ".spr"))
            {
                set_pev(iIDEnt, pev_renderamt, 191.0)
            }
        }
        else
        {
            set_pev(iIDEnt, pev_rendermode, kRenderTransTexture);
            set_pev(iIDEnt, pev_renderamt, 128.0)
        }
    }
}

}

Declare iIDEnt as static.

}

It doesn't work fine, should find every info_target entities only and make them brighter.
What it does now is that it shows white colors brighted 100% for a few secs, they dissapear and appear on other places. It should light every single info_target entity constantly and u should see the entity not a white background image. Also i don't want the image color to glow, i want it to be static.

I didn't say it does exactly what you want. I gave it to you as an example.

Is iIDEnt declared in the loop? No.

But it's used in the loop, so it will be called until loop returns true.

You're misunderstanding the purpose of "static". It means just that unlike 'new', the variable is not initialized and the value will remain after the function is executed.
You don't need that in the current context.

You can read the Pawn Language Guide about static local declaration
