How does he update the number of players and the current date in real time?
can he share the trick?

One way is rewriting the vscript file (with the player count) and making the server run it again. I did that for tank hp once but is not stable yet.

Totally forgot to commit these offsets vscript uses the CTerrorGameRulesProxy you should beable to set/get the entprops using the GameRules_* prop functions to display that stuff without EMS functions.

PHP Code:

GameRules_SetProp,
GameRules_GetProp,
ECT. 


These are the named entprops highlighted in link below.
https://github.com/LuxLuma/l4d2_stru...es.h#L249-L259

This is without the abstraction that using the EMS gives you, so this is more of a raw way of getting at it without vscript, so it's all manual.

This should work not tested at all.

Some data in entprops may need researching this is bypassing EMS HUD abstraction.

Nice Lux,

I did some tests and it worked, but I'm having a problem to set the text string for the other huds, I only achieved to set for the first hud, but since is an array of string (seems) I didn't find a method on SM that does that.

GameRules_SetPropString doesn't accept an index as parameter

I also did some tests, but I has a problem. The display time of this hud is only short, it seems that it does not exceed 0.1 seconds. How it can continue to display?(using CreateTimer or OnGameFrame is unstable)
