LinLinLin · **Author**

Introduction:

A plugin whcih make L4D2 has the kill info like cs. Look at the attachment of picture you will know the final effect.

Requirement:

L4DToolZ.ext
l4d2_ems_hud.inc

hud.inc is already in the .7z file, you need install the L4DToolz extension and set the "sv_maxplayer" cvar to let plugin get the corrcet maxplayer count.

Feature:

show the current player/max player on the top of left.
show your server host name in the middle of the top.
player will be list in the left side of the hud base on how many special they kill.
player in left side will blink when they dead.
kill list like cs in the right top whcih will show who dead and what the weapon is and is headshot or kill behind wall.

Cvar:

Code:

"l4d2_max_player_list" 
-description: how much player can be list in the left side of hud. max is 8.
-default: 8

"l4d2_show_which_list" (up 1.0.2)
-description: display which list on screen. 0 = off, 1 = show hostname, 2 = show player list, 4 = show kill list 8 = Current player/Max PLAYER. Add the count to show more of them.
-default: 15

Note:

becasuse ems hud position is base on the size of your game screen. i make this plugin in 1600*900 so if you playe the game under this size the hud will get narrow and couldn't show the entire info.
my hud.inc in 7z only can be used in sm 1.11.
a slot only can have 127 character.

Specials Thank:

sorall who provides the inc of hud which can use the whole slot of ems hud.

Update:

Code:

[2023-4-16]: 1.0.3
1. fixed bug when player leave cause the player_list not correct.
2. making no number in kill_list when victim is a bot.


[2022-12-1]: 1.0.2
1. add new cvar to select which part to show on screen.
2. use enum struct to make code more object-oriented.
enum struct HUD
{
	int slot;
	int flag;
	float pos[4];
	char info[128];
	void Place()
	{
		HUDSetLayout(this.slot, HUD_FLAG_TEXT|this.flag, this.info);
		HUDPlace(this.slot, this.pos[0], this.pos[1], this.pos[2], this.pos[3]);
	}
}
