In Day of Defeat:Source game , when you type "mp_restartwarmup 1" in console, some text will show up on the left side of the screen,which says "WarmUp Mode" and "Game will restart in 0:00".

but I don't know how to display text like this. I've tried the following code , it didn't work, the error is: Couldn't dispatch user message (20)

new Handle:hBuffer = StartMessageOne("KeyHintText", client);
BfWriteByte(hBuffer, 1);
BfWriteString(hBuffer,"Hello World");
EndMessage();

wish someone could teach me how to do it, thanks!

What I can assume, it is client side "label" ("WarmupLabel").
So from server side, you can't bring up those from clients or make custom one.

If you want bring "Warmup Mode" label up different way,
you can trick dod gamerules m_bInWarmup to true.
This however can mess gameplay...
