Hey there.

I am trying to create a nice highlight effect on a player. The effect is the same thing that this plugin offers but I need it not to be able to be seen through brushes.

I was hoping of using the outline effect on hats such as the Dueler or Gifting Man From Gifting Land but I found out that they're built into the model.

Any other suggestions? I'd appreciate all your help!

SetEntProp(client, Prop_Send, "m_bGlowEnabled", 1);

I think this is not working anymore.

It is working, that is the same thing the plugin I mentioned uses. However, it's not what I'm looking for becuase m_bGlowEnabled can be seen through walls.

You are looking for a modeler / texturer who can make custom models with alpha masks or whatever those use to achieve those affects.

[Phil25]

Compiling all the player models and making clients download them seems like a quite hefty way of achieving this. Is there no way of editing the current glow option, at least making it fade over distance?

[Chdata]

It's either on or off.

Sorry for bumping this old thread, but there's one outline effect that was introduced in Gun Mettle, which is the yellow outline on dropped weapons. It seems just what I was looking for because it can't be seen through brushes.

Does anyone have more info on that and whether or not it's possible to toggle said effect on a player?

Different entites have different colors that come with m_bGlowEnabled. That's what happens to be there for dropped weapons.

Your best bet is to look at Slender Fortress 2's glow / outline code, which also has code for determining when its visible (it's normally always visible).

Has Slender Fortress 2 even been publicly released?
