Hi everyone.

I'm seeking a plugin who can remove specific characters on the player's name.
the problem is those MW2 players coming en TF2, and having names like so :

^9B^3E^1W^9|^9Al^3bat^1or*

The plugin would remove any "^" characters, and the number next to it (Like "^9")

So the real name would appear :

BEW|Albator*

See?

I've seeked a plugin like this on the forum, cound't find one

Thanks for any help !

That would be cool, but I want to RENAME the players, not to color them

I want to rename them so the odds characters will disappear.

^9B^3E^1W^9|^9Al^3bat^1or* -> BEW|Albator*

it does that + coloring. I'm not sure if you can disable that color effect.

Yeah, I've looked at the sourcecode, and I need something like

ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^0", ""); ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^1", ""); ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^2", ""); ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^3", ""); ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^4", ""); ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^5", ""); ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^6", ""); ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^7", ""); ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^8", ""); ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^9", "");

I guess it's quite simple to do, but I've never created a plugin.

Well... I've just made an ulgy part of code, based on two different plugins.
I did not founded any sub-categories to help me to code this.

I think a skilled coder will "understand" my code and my intentions.

#include <sourcemod>
#include <sdktools>
#define AUTOLOAD_EXTENSIONS
#define REQUIRE_EXTENSIONS

#define PLUGIN_VERSION "0.0.1"

public Plugin:myinfo = {
    name        = "[TF2] MW2Renamer",
    author      = "SqTH",
    description = "Automatically remove colors characters of MW2 players. Based on [TF2] Free2BeRenamed by DarthNinja, and Colored Names by Thraka (Original by Afronanny)",
    version     = PLUGIN_VERSION
};

//Execute itself on client connect ?
public OnClientPostAdminCheck(client)
{    
  //exclude bots ?
    if (IsFakeClient(client))
    {
        return;
    }
    
    
     //create strings
    decl String:NewName[MAX_NAME_LENGTH];
    decl String:Name[MAX_NAME_LENGTH];
    
    //take name's player ?
      GetEventString(event, "newname", Name, sizeof(Name));
    
    //replaces characters ?
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^0", "");
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^1", "");
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^2", "");
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^3", "");
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^4", "");
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^5", "");
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^6", "");
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^7", "");
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^8", "");
    ReplaceString(name, sizeof(name), "^9", ""); 


        //update name ? Dont think is needed with "replace string, but got to have something to send new name ?"
        SetClientInfo(client, "name", NewName);            

    //?? :s
    return;
}

Can someone help me to make this compile ?
