How to make messages:
You can also check the file in data/messages_example.txt in the zip.

Spoiler

PHP Code:

"Messages"
{
    "" <-- This area is for the player STEAMID3, put the STEAMID3 inside the quotes, like that: "[U:1:91835770]"
    {
        "message" "" <-- This area is where the message goes, the message needs to be followed by the phrase "message" and needs
                        to be put inside quotes, like that: "message" "Hello World!"
                        
        "area"    "chat" <-- This area is where you specify where the message will be shown to all players, it needs to be followed by "area" and
                        needs to be put inside quotes, like that: "area" "chat". Actually, it supports 3 areas to show the message to the player,
                        it supports "chat", "center" and "hint".
    }
    "192.168.0.100" <-- You can use IPs instead of STEAMIDs, just put the IP on the area where the STEAMID goes.
    {
        "message" "Hello guys!"        
        "area"    "chat"
    }
    
    Example Messages:
    
    "[U:1:91835770]"
    {
        "message"    "A noob has entered the game!"
        "area"    "center"
    }
    
    "74.125.224.72"
    {
        "message"    "Is this even possible?"
        "area"    "hint"
    }
    
    How to use colors in chat messages:
    
    "[U:1:91835770]"
    {
        "message"    "{green}A noob has entered the game!"
        "area"    "chat"
    }
    
    While using colors, if you put the area to center or hint, it will be displayed like that: {green}A noob has entered the game!
    instead of the message being green.

        If you use a STEAMID and an IP for the same player, the plugin will have preference for the SteamID.
    
} 


How to install:
Extract the folder to YouServerFolder>mod>addons>sourcemod
Edit messages.txt

Version 1.1: Added IP support and chat colors support.
Version 1.1.1: Fixed plugin showing messages in the server console.

thx but i have error in my sm logs:
[SM] Unable to load plugin "joinmessages.smx": Native "GetUserMessageType" was not found
do you know what this mean?

I see from jeezz's last question, it hasn't been responded to. So am I to assume you no longer maintain your plugin? I have followed your guide for installation but the message does NOT appear on screen when specific players enter the game.

You have set your plugin to ANY but will that include L4D1?
