Could you help me with colors in chat?

{GREEN}Example Text
{LIGHTGREEN}Example Text

does not work

{TEAM}Example Text

does work

I would like to use as many colors as possible for chat messages.

Try using https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=1994861 It's updated to have more colours, not sure if there are to many other differences.

Also if only team is working, may have grabbed the source version, not the cs:go version? (Assuming you're using cs:go), Just grab the .sxm instead of using 'getplugin' button.

Edit: Mysql is kinda pointless if you only run 1 server. But if your colours aren't working you much be formatting them wrong, only regular say text will be coloured. I think it also supports basic csay styled text as colour, but only 1 colour.

I did not just press "get plugin", the red text told me not too :i
I will look at the link, but i only run 1 server and have never tried mysql.

I have choosen Type = S where {green} should work but it dosent. :s I dont think i can format wrong that way? But maybe i can.. Sorry for bad English :-)

I've taken it straight out of my config, but, yours should look similar.
So your sourcemod/configs/advertisements.txt file looks like

PHP Code:

"Advertisements"
{
    "1"
    {
        "type"        "S"
        "text"        "{LIMEGREEN}[SimplyTF]{SNOW} Need a hand? Try using {LIGHTGREEN}!showme{SNOW}. If we have a recording, a bot will show you how to do the jump!"
    }
}

Yeah still not working.. found another plugin that works better, but still not 100%, will do for my needs tho. I can't link it since it's not on alliedmodders.

The plugin doesn't work well with multiple server installations (ie. multiple advertisements.txt files). It always loads the default file, not the one specified in the convar.

I've attached my fixed version, basically delaying the file parsing by a few seconds on map start. It works now.

PHP Code:

public OnMapStart()
{
    CreateTimer(5.0, ParseAdsLateLoad);
}

public Action:ParseAdsLateLoad(Handle:timer)
{
    ParseAds();
}

Light green and green worked. 'Team' color worked as well. No luck on red, orange, or purple. Running latest sourcemod and metamod on my TF2 server.
