I try to pervent ghosting by setting "mp_forcecamera" to "2" if a player without admin dies.
The Convar gets changed on the dead client but it has no visual effect.
I use

SendConVarValue(player, mp_forcecamera, "2");

to change the convar on the client, if i check the cvar on the clientconsole it is set to 2 bt i can still spectate players.

Did i miss something?

Or is there some other way to block non-admins from spectating any players?

SendConVarValue() doesn't exist in AMX Mod X. Are you trying to do something with SourceMod? If yes, you'll probably want to post in the SourceMod forums.

Anyways, you need DHook module and a script like this.

PHP Code:

#include <sourcemod>
#include <dhooks>
#include <cstrike>

#define COMMAND_ACCESS   "sm_chat"          /** REQUIRED ACCESS FOR ESP (ANY COMMAND YOU WANT) */
#define FLAG_ACCESS      ADMFLAG_BAN       /** IF COMMAND NOT FOUND, REQUIRED FLAG (ANY FLAG YOU WANT) */

Handle g_MP_FC =         INVALID_HANDLE;   /** MP_FORCECAMERA */
Handle g_IsValidTarget = INVALID_HANDLE;

public void OnPluginStart()
{
    if (g_MP_FC ==    INVALID_HANDLE) g_MP_FC =  FindConVar("mp_forcecamera");
    if (g_MP_FC !=    INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
        Handle Data = LoadGameConfigFile("allow-spec.games");
        if (Data !=   INVALID_HANDLE)
        {
            g_IsValidTarget =      DHookCreate(GameConfGetOffset(Data, "IsValidObserverTarget"), HookType_Entity, \
                ReturnType_Bool, ThisPointer_CBaseEntity, IsValidTarget);

            if (g_IsValidTarget != INVALID_HANDLE)
            {
                DHookAddParam(g_IsValidTarget, HookParamType_CBaseEntity);
            }

            CloseHandle(Data);
        }
    }
}

public void OnClientPostAdminCheck(Client)
{
    if (g_MP_FC != INVALID_HANDLE && g_IsValidTarget != INVALID_HANDLE && \
        !IsFakeClient(Client) &&     !IsClientInKickQueue(Client)      && !IsClientSourceTV(Client) && \
        CheckCommandAccess(Client,   COMMAND_ACCESS,                      FLAG_ACCESS))
    {
        SendConVarValue(Client,      g_MP_FC,                             "0");
        DHookEntity(g_IsValidTarget, true,                                Client);
    }
}

public MRESReturn IsValidTarget(int Owner, Handle Return, Handle Params)
{
    static int Target;

    if (DHookIsNullParam(Params, 1)     || \
        Owner < 1 || Owner > MaxClients || \
        !IsClientInGame(Owner)          || IsPlayerAlive(Owner) || GetClientTeam(Owner) <= CS_TEAM_SPECTATOR || \
        IsClientInKickQueue(Owner)      || IsClientSourceTV(Owner))
    {
        return MRES_Ignored;
    }

    Target = DHookGetParam(Params, 1);
    if (Target < 1 || Target > MaxClients || \
        !IsClientInGame(Target)           || !IsPlayerAlive(Target) || GetClientTeam(Target) <= CS_TEAM_SPECTATOR || \
        IsClientInKickQueue(Target)       || IsClientSourceTV(Target))
    {
        return MRES_Ignored;
    }

    DHookSetReturn(Return, true);

    return MRES_Override;
} 


Also, this thread must be moved to SourceMod forums.

First, sorry for being quiet that long, had some other stuff to do.
Yep, seems like i posted i the wrong forum, sorry for that too.
It is a sourcemod plugin for CS:GO.

I added the allow-spec.games file with the offsets for CSGO but the plugin doesn't do anything.
Did i miss something? I didn't use hooks before
