Tried myself to get this to run in L4D2
(in true noob fashion using the find/replace method).
No error's related to it I could see in console.
Any value aside from -1 -1 -1
and you or SI infected go invisible.
All4Dead'ed a Tank into the game,alive he was invisible,...,he was painted
correctly when he was dead.
I never modded any source till today,...anyone have a clue?
Maybe its the render mode in the cfg?I dunno.

(the plugin is not from me I just uploaded the edited source I did)
If this is illegal please notify me or delete it.

EDIT

1.2 Some models are not able to add color
1.3 should address this problem, right?

Nice man! Try finish this plugin xD I want the HULK tank back to l4d2 xD

Looks abandoned to me.

Woot!!!Woot!

In the config file
sm_l4d_painter_render_mode "0"

fixed the tank on hotel c1m1!!

Don't know about any other creatures or levels.
I was so excited to post fix after having done it my
ordinary POLISH way,I rebooted 9 times down from 10 to 0
to be sure it was loading when if I went the other way or started at the bottom would have had it
pretty much right off the bat.

Plus steam blew up 5 times trying to sync in offline mode (WTF network not even plugged in?)

EDIT
for the rest of plugin it appears to behave the same as L4D version
You can see the color you put on a boomers lower half when you kill him (as in original).
Had a funky color on hunter might be invalid value,appeared normal (as in original didn't work for this SI).
Witch didn't work in original same here.
Had a funky color on smoker ( was able to make red in L4D) appeared normal.

Might try tonight to add the newer SI using the find and replace method on the code that works "the Tank"
and or try to do the same to non-functioning controllable infected (no witch)

1) I think smoker has a new name in L4D2 (used old color setup from L4D which used to work no difference)
non-functional

Hi can i use this in my Left 4 Dead 2 Server

i tried it but i was not able to see anyone not even the tank, i was able to see the zombies..

[Ace1564]

Nevermind i found out how to do it...

i put all survivors settings as follow:
sm_l4d_painter_ellis "255 255 255"

and then i set the render mode as follow:
sm_l4d_painter_render_mode "0"

after doing this all survivors displayed correct colors and my tank is now the green color of hulk

Thanks

Don't think you need the 255's
all I changed and got it working was render mode to 0.

Tried finding and replacing the new l4d2 monsters not in list
in the source code couldn't get it to work

sm_paint Jockey 0 255 0

from admin console works even from render mode 3
(I have invisible boomers on my game)
I wanted to try painting by hand

I am unable to follow what you are saying on L4D2. Does this work? Are Special Infected invisible? What do I need to do to make it work?

* upload the files listed in this thread

* start your server, this will create a config file in your cfg folder named l4dpainter.cfg
(location: left4dead2/left4dead2/cfg)

* look for the following lines and make the following changes:

// Render mode of colored peoples.
// -
// Default: "3"
// Minimum: "0.000000"
// Maximum: "10.000000"
sm_l4d_painter_render_mode "0"

// RGB Value for coach. Usage: "R G B" or "-1 -1 -1" to do nothing.
// -
// Default: "0 0 0"
sm_l4d_painter_coach "255 255 255"

// RGB Value for ellis. Usage: "R G B" or "-1 -1 -1" to do nothing.
// -
// Default: "0 255 0"
sm_l4d_painter_ellis "255 255 255"

// RGB Value for rochelle. Usage: "R G B" or "-1 -1 -1" to do nothing.
// -
// Default: "255 0 0"
sm_l4d_painter_rochelle "255 255 255"

// RGB Value for nick. Usage: "R G B" or "-1 -1 -1" to do nothing.
// -
// Default: "0 0 255"
sm_l4d_painter_nick "255 255 255"

These changes was needed by server i have no idea why but after i made these corrections, the characters are all displaying correct colors.

The tank is green like hulk, with no invisibilty of any kind.

My servers are on a linux box

I hope this help you in yours...
