The ads plugin works very well. Even with TF2.

I would LOVE it if, when you add the use of top left panel, we could allow ads that are in the top left to only show up for dead players (it obscures the radar for living players in CS:S)

sm_ads_topleft_showliving 0 (FTW)

I'm also hoping that we'll be able to have each ad line appear in multiple places?

Top left ads will be in the next version. Check out Bugs' bug-tracker.

Heh, say 'bugs' bug-tracker' really fast 10 times in a row... ;)

1.4.0 is now available for download from here: here

Make sure you all copy the new config file to /sourcemod/config/ads since the structure has changed and now includes way more options then before.

We have been testing this version both CSS,DODS, PVKII and TF2 and it's running very stable for days now.

tcviper do you have the changelog for 1.4.0?

[^BuGs^]

Just added the change log to the first post...

Updated to 1.0.4.0.

I'm having one issue with the latest version, i want to use the chat text option and it will only display the first char in the hex value segment:

/* Hex value of the chat ads color. */
"AdsChatColor" "0x04"

All messages display the 0 and then the message, if i change the 0 to a 1 it displays the 1, etc. etc. i even tried just x04, x02 etc, then it just displays the x. Although i'm glad i can have white text, anything other than green in a tf2 server, i'd like to have the ability to vary the color.

For now i have made the following changes:

/* Hex value of the chat ads color. */
"AdsChatColor" "-"

So it wil display in game as: -My Message. Looks a little better than a single letter or number. Any ideas?

I'm running tf2 with the following plugins on a linux box:

Ads 1.0.4.0
Hlstats 1.0.7
AutoBan Bad Name
Web shortcuts

Question about the top-left ad msgs - is the max number of characters allowed for a message a plugin limitation, or one imposed by Valve? Reason I ask, is that some of my ads that were in the hint area get cut off when being displayed up on the top-left.
