Hey guys

I'm using this box plugin to create some "zones" that players can walk in.

This question is not really connectet to that plugin, thats why I'm asking here and not in the plugin thread.


Is it somehow possible to make the "zone" visible to the players? I tried glowing it, but this seems to only affect the model of the entity and since the entity is not drawn (EF_NODRAW) nothing will be seen at all.

Im searching for something to glow the mins & max borders of an entity or really anything other to make the box visible.

PHP Code:

#include < amxmodx >
#include < fakemeta >

#define BLOCK_NAME        "Block"

public plugin_init( ) {
    register_forward( FM_AddToFullPack, "fw_AddToFullPackPost", 1 );
}

public fw_AddToFullPackPost( iHandle, iE, iEntity, iHost, iHostFlags, iPlayer, iPSet ) {
    if( !iPlayer && pev_valid( iEntity ) && is_user_alive( iHost ) ) {
        static szClassName[ 32 ];
        pev( iEntity, pev_classname, szClassName, charsmax( szClassName ) );

        if( equal( szClassName, BLOCK_NAME ) ) {
            set_es( iHandle, ES_RenderFx, kRenderFxGlowShell );
            set_es( iHandle, ES_RenderColor, { 0, 255, 0 } ); // Green
            set_es( iHandle, ES_RenderMode, kRenderTransAdd );
            set_es( iHandle, ES_RenderAmt, 255 );
        }
    }
} 


PS: It is not tested

I dont think there is any difference in this case between set_rendering() and using the AddToFullPack approach.
