[L4D & L4D2] UnVomit - Remove Boomer Screen Effect (1.8) [14-Jul-2022]

**Silvers** · **Author**

About:

This completely unvomits someone with options of adding back the glow (L4D2 only) and chase goal to attract infected.
Player model doesn't retain the bile visual effects overlay. Is it possible? I'm guessing it's client side only.

Admin Commands: (requires "z" flag)

PHP Code:


			
sm_vomit      // Cover in bile. Usage: sm_vomit [#userid|name]. No args = target self.

sm_unvomit    // Remove effect. Usage: sm_unvomit [#userid|name]. No args = target self.

Cvars:

Saved to l4d_unvomit.cfg in your servers \cfg\sourcemod\ folder.

PHP Code:


			
// 0=Plugin off, 1=Plugin on.

l4d_unvomit_allow "1"



// 0=Off. 1=Attach a info_goal_infected_chase to players for common infected to chase them.

l4d_unvomit_chase "1"



// Duration of the effect (game default: 20). How long to keep the chase and glow enabled.

l4d_unvomit_duration "20"



// Only users with these flags will be unvomited. Empty = allow  all players.

l4d_unvomit_flags ""

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

1. Correct L4D1 signature for "CTerrorPlayer::OnVomitedUpon" should be:

Code:

"linux"			"@_ZN13CTerrorPlayer13OnVomitedUponEPS_bb"

Also, I think missing check for L4D1 game in SetEntProp of the glow.

2. I noticed sm_vomit is conflicting with unvomit, because green on-screen effect is not appearing, so I guess "SDKCall(g_hSDKUnVomit ... " in Event_IsIt event should be delayed or disabled once for that client if sm_vomit called.

3. Suggestion on improvements:

This plugin is completely remove on-screen green vomit effect, but I want just decrease effect duration e.g. down to 1-2 sec.
I tried such cvars:

Quote:

sb_vomit_blind_time (set to 1) : 5 : , "sv", "cheat" : How long Boomer vomit/explosion gore blinds us
z_vomit_fade_duration (set to 1) : 5 : , "cheat", "rep", "cl" : How long the fade takes
z_vomit_fade_start (set to 1) : 5 : , "cheat", "rep", "cl" : When the vomit starts to fade away

but without luck here in L4D1.

Maybe you know other cvars? Or you can add Cvar to delay calling "SDKCall(g_hSDKUnVomit ... " in Event_IsIt.

Still, not sure why, when I delay SDKCall on 1.0 sec., effect dissapeared after 1.0 sec, but when I explode second boomer just right after it, on-screen effect is not appearing at all for some time.
Actually, it is good for me. Just share my observations.

Thanks.

Hi, Silvers!
Can I ask you please to include the feature?

Quote:

- Added "l4d_unvomit_particle_dur" ConVar to delay vomit particle effect.
- Prevent glowing errors in L4D1.

Thank you.

**Silvers**

Thanks, updated. I changed the cvar name to "l4d_unvomit_particle".

I do have a completely different version of this plugin which allows better control over the effect by removing it without changing the chase or glow etc, but it's not 100% solid and I can't figure out how the values work (modifying memory) to fix. PM if interested, I don't have time to play around with it.

Could you add a cvar so that it only removes the vomit for VIP players or administrators? It would give more advantage to paying customers but I think many of my users would like the idea.

Done, please let me know that it works, I wasn't able to test but it's simple enough and I've done it several times so I think it should.

Code:

1.5 (12-Sep-2021)
    - Added cvar "l4d_unvomit_flags" to specify users with certain flags to allow unvomit.

This plugin removes the boomer effect, what blood stains are you talking about? I see none from the boomer after this plugin removes the effect.
