Thanks Marttt, working on it now.

New version 2.1 released, see original post for download.

27-Feb-2021 v2.1
- New L4D2 check before hooking L4D2-only events.
- New method to verify/load required translation file.
- New ConVar (reverseff_tankmaxdmg) since tanks do much more "friendly-fire" damage than other special infected.
- Modified cfg file default max damage values: reverseff_survivormaxdmg=200, reverseff_infectedmaxdmg=50, reverseff_tankmaxdmg=300

Since special infected only do 4-10 HP "friendly-fire" damage with their claws, and it is rare to accidentally claw a teammate, the default infected max damage was lowered to 50, which is 5-12 hits depending on SI. However, the tank is far more likely to do accidental friendly-fire damage, especially with rock throws, so a separate max damage ConVar was created for it, with a default of 300.

@kooper990, thanks for reporting the issue with cfg file creation on L4D1, it should be fixed now. Please try the new 2.1 version and let me know the results.

HI,Mystik Spiral just updated the plugin and it's not loading.
I put the plugin in the plugin folder and the translations text file in the translation folder.
L 02/27/2021 - 18:08:59: Error log file session closed.
L 02/27/2021 - 18:09:14: SourceMod error session started

It loads fine for me, and has for a few days. Here is the actual code...

public void LoadPluginTranslations()
{
    char path[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH];
    BuildPath(Path_SM, path, PLATFORM_MAX_PATH, "translations/%s.txt", TRANSLATION_FILENAME);
    if (FileExists(path))
        LoadTranslations(TRANSLATION_FILENAME);
    else
        SetFailState("Missing required translation file \"translations/%s.txt\", please download.", TRANSLATION_FILENAME);
}

...and earlier in the code is this entry...

#define TRANSLATION_FILENAME "l4d_reverse_ff.phrases"

What OS platform are you on? My development/testing is on Windows but it appears you are on Linux. I suspect something related to "Path_SM".
Please check the file owner/group and permissions match those of other working translation files.

Am running linux server

@Krufftys Killers

What is the result of...

ls -l /home/tcagame/1234/11392/left4dead2/addons/sourcemod/translations/l4d*

[Mystik Spiral]

Going to bed, I'll check for your reply tomorrow.

That's just how the server company set up its server

That is okay, but the error is saying it cannot read the file...

/home/tcagame/1234/11392/left4dead2/addons/sourcemod/translations/l4d_reverse_ff.phrases.txt

To help diagnose the issue, please run the this command exactly as shown and provide the output...

ls -l /home/tcagame/1234/11392/left4dead2/addons/sourcemod/translations/l4d*

That should show all of the files in the translations directory that begin with "l4d". If the output does not contain the file l4d_reverse_ff.phrases.txt, or if it has owner/group/permissions different from the other phrases files, then that is likely the issue.

Wait...forget everything I just typed above... I know what the issue is now.

Plugin versions 2.0 and 2.0.1 used a file named "l4d_reverse_ff_phrases.txt". That does not follow convention, so I fixed it to use "l4d_reverse_ff.phrases.txt". Note the character before "phrases" is now a dot rather than an underscore. I've updated the original post to include the correctly named phrases file. My apologies for overlooking that upload, but if you download the new phrases file it should resolve the issue.

Thanks its all working now
