• Description
  This plugin will override your name to steam community name
• Cvars
  steam_api_key - mandatory for using the steam api
  - https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey
• Modules
  If you're using async gRIP you need its module.
  Get it here https://github.com/In-line/grip
• Install
  1. Compile on AMXX 1.9 and later
  2. Drag steam_community_name.sma to amxmodx/scripting folder
  3. Drag steam_community_name.amxx to amxmodx/plugins folder
  4. Type steam_community_name.amxx in amxmodx/configs/plugins.ini file
  5. Type steam_api_key "<API_KEY>" in amxmodx/configs/amxx.cfg file
• Credits
  ConnorMcLeod - block name change
  VEN - dead name change
  swank - obtain steam64 from steamid
  Shadows Adi - only standard ascii characters in name
  (detailed credits inside script file)
• Beware
  This plugin will collide with other plugins that may change player's name and the functionality and output may not be as expected.
• Additional information
  Due to the rules of json formatting, using certain characters in a name is not possible as it would cause the json limitations to be exceeded, therefore they are replaced with random numbers. If the json name is left blank, it will automatically be assigned 8 random digits(not sure how).
  The removal of the characters [ and ] was a main reason for this to function seamlessly, as there was no other way around.

Can you rewrite a new plugin for newer and asynchronous modules like grip? Sockets seems to crash my rehlds server.

gRIP doesn't work on my machine

thread '<unnamed>' panicked at 'Client::new(): Error(DnsSystemConf(Custom { kind: Other, error: StringError("Error parsing resolv.conf: InvalidOption(21)") }))', src/libcore/result.rs:997:5
note: Run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace.
fatal runtime error: failed to initiate panic, error 5

This is an error due to gRIP not finding the hosts file.

There's a post in dev-cs.ru detailing the solution.

Is this plugin a remade version of this one?
