You did not understand what I meant. Even if you use rehlds and you plan to release plugins, if something can be done properly with amxx you should just use amxx's way and not reapi. Because that way the plugin is going to work in both regamedll/hlds.
IMO you should use reapi when you can't use another way.

If you don't plan to release your plugins and you only code for yourself then use whatever you want.

If you want to post such plugins here, you should do like I do - have a HLDS version of the plugin too. People who don't use ReHLDS won't be able to use your plugin otherwise and there are already many better plugins than this that do the same job on both HLDS and ReHLDS.

maybe because reapi use less resource!

Do you have anything to back up your claims? Or it's just another case of "bro science".
Are you aware that even if there is a difference, most likely it's so small that having the plugin work in a more general context is more important that the little speed gain?

You probably don't even know that fakemeta and reapi are using the same engine exported functions.

If you know orpheu/okapi then you can do it for default hlds too. Probably there's nothing you can do with reapi and can't do with orpheu/okapi.
So your question has no answer.

Using it is really simple, not much different than Hamsandwich or Fakemeta when it comes to hooking functions.
What people struggle with is creating signature files. And you most of the time don't have to do it yourself, there are many available on this forum, and in case there isn't one that you are looking for, you can just request it.

I bet there's hundreds (maybe thousands) who know how to use Orpheu.
