    This plugin detect players who use cheat console commands that come to your server.
    These cheat commands give advantage to players: increased brightness, remove vomit, etc.
    Plugin is simple, but can be usefull to check some players.

    Also i try report this commands to valve, but looks like noone care(lol).

    Plugin does not prohibit access to server( edit in v0.2 can). File with detected players you can find in SourceMod folder: logs/cheaters.txt

    Hmm, I wouldn't say that the two (except for the anti-vomit) commands are related to cheats.

    It's a way to boost up FPS for those people whose laptops/computers can't handle the required memory allocation that L4D2 uses. Also, they're useful for preventing stuttering mid-game.

    I already know what these commands do.

    It's just the problem of false positives such as some clients who just want to boost their FPS getting kicked by this plugin, leaving them to stick to their default settings and a sh***y gameplay.

    Maybe you can add a cvar that lets users decide if players should/should not get kicked/banned for using these commands.

    add this command Launch parameters, or download this addon - http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfile.../?id=883184786 , works in versus perfectly. Also with disabled addons. sad but true.

    edit: looks like dont work with launch parameters, but addon remove vomit in versus.

    Yes, it seems mat_postprocess_enable 0 only works with the VPK addon. VAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALVE!
    +mat_hdr_level works on launch. in developer console: unknown command.
    +mat_queue_mode works on launch and in developer console.
    +mat_texture_list doesn't seem to work on launch. Probably works with a VPK addon. Uknown command in developer console.

    This plugin could be fun

    Edit: I've decompiled this vpk https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfil.../?id=883184786 and it's a serious issue.
    This basicly gives clients the opportunity to change any client convar that is locked and just recompile the vpk.

    You can block addons with the whitelist.cfg
    another thing tho is you can change cvars in the vmt files (unsure if sv_cheats 1 required)
