[Silvers]

About:

• Skips the intro cutscene on first chapters.
• Should work for all maps including 3rd party.
• Optionally uses Left 4 DHooks to detect the first chapter so it doesn't attempt to run on every round_start.

CVars:

Saved to l4d_skip_intro.cfg in your servers \left4dead\cfg\sourcemod\ folder.

PHP Code:

// 0=Plugin off, 1=Plugin on.
l4d_skip_intro_allow "1"

// Turn on the plugin in these game modes, separate by commas (no spaces). (Empty = all).
l4d_skip_intro_modes ""

// Turn off the plugin in these game modes, separate by commas (no spaces). (Empty = none).
l4d_skip_intro_modes_off ""

// Turn on the plugin in these game modes. 0=All, 1=Coop, 2=Survival, 4=Versus, 8=Scavenge. Add numbers together.
l4d_skip_intro_modes_tog "0"

// Skip Intro plugin version.
l4d_skip_intro_version
