[Any] Spawn Particles v1.1

Description:

Just a simple particle spawning, Specially for iEx5 request

About CS:S Precache,i dunno,i havent work with particles at cs:s,would be nice if UnderTaker will share it:]

Commands:

Spoiler

/sp <particle_name> - Spawns a particle by name on the client.
/spawnparticle <particle_name> - Same as /sp.

Changelog

[Any] Spawn Particles 1.1 - Added if command used on server's console, It will print "Command In-game Only!"
[Any] Spawn Particles 1.0 - Release.

NOTE: The .txt file I didn't make it, I took it from somewhere and put into .txt file

How do I use?

Let's say you wanna spawn particle, you go to .txt file, Search what you want, I want spawn bday_confetti(Team Fortress 2), so I write in chat /sp bday_confetti
And on yourself the particle, I recommend you see it on Thirdperson.

For tf2 particles I wrote in .txt files, // TF2 So press CTRL+F and type // TF2 if you wanna tf2 particles .

I can't get this to work on CS:S...

I've compiled the SP and loaded it into server, but whenever I try to type 'sm_spawnparticle flamethrower_blue' into console, i get the below errors - and nothing happens.

Attemped to precache unknown particle system "flamethrower_blue"!
Attempting to create unknown particle system 'flamethrower_blue'

Is this plugin supposed to work on CS:S? Or am I doing it wrong?

I really didn't test on CS:S, But read the errors, It means you didn't enter a valid particle, You need to do it on game, Because it's spawning on your players -_- I will update it right now, If you tried /sp 'flamethrower_blue' and you need to do /sp flamethrower_blue
if it doesn't work for you, Try an another particle that valid for CS:S Because in TF2 It worked perfect.
Try to search on google CS:S particle names...https://developer.valvesoftware.com/..._CSS_Particles
I don't see here flamethrower_blue.
Just try particles in link above.

Ahh ok - now that works

Thanks for that.

Is there a way to include the HL2 particles as well by any chance?

Try it, I always use it for TF2 if it doesn't work you need to spawn it in another way like I wrote you in your thread.

Instead of using RemoveEdict(), use AcceptEntityInput(entity, "Kill"); It's safer.

Oh, and consider using entity references when deleting an entity using timers.

[Pelipoika]

Instead of using a kill timer use:

PHP Code:

char addoutput[64];
Format(addoutput, sizeof(addoutput), "OnUser1 !self:kill::%i:1", time);
SetVariantString(addoutput);
            
AcceptEntityInput(ent, "AddOutput");
AcceptEntityInput(ent, "FireUser1"); 


No need for timers, let source handle it!

Why? I yes need a timer cause i want the particle will show for 5 seconds.
And this code longer than KillTimer...
