1. I assume those steam id groups are sanitized for the forum and you didn't name those groups like that. I say this because the method used to determine if a steamid was entered is a strcontains on "STEAM_0:" I am not really sure how it would react to group names like that... I would guess it would just skip those entries, but not positive (untested).

2. If you can't get it to work, try removing all groups but just the group that pertains to you. If you are trying to find yourself by steam id, try by flag.

To answer your questions, it does as you suggested. It would color your name and apply a tag. I have done extensive testing on this and have had no errors from a correctly configured .cfg file.

Well I just removed the steam id's rather the post them on here. From what I gathered from the config file was that you could set it to a steam id and it would work.

Yes. That is correct, it will find by steam id. That is why I asked if they were just sanitized (removed) for the post.

Either I'm missing something, or I'm an idiot. Just to make sure.
All I need to make this work is, the zip provided in the first post in this thread; Simple Chat Processor, and a properly configured cfg?

This is what I have it set to now.

"admin_colors"
{
	""
	{
		"tag"						"[Owner]"
		"tagcolor"				"{R}"
		"namecolor"			"{G}"
	}

	"Super"
	{
		"flag"						"z"
		"tag"						"[SA]"
		"tagcolor"				"{R}"
		"namecolor"			"{G}"
	}


	"Admins"
	{
		"flag"						"a"
		"tag"						"[A]"
		"tagcolor"				"{R}"
		"namecolor"			"{G}"
	}
	"VIP"
	{
		"flag"						"t"
		"tag"						"[VIP]"
		"tagcolor"				"{B}"
		"namecolor"			"{T}"
		"textcolor"			"{OG}"
	}
}

I know it's a bit late, but I did ban someone with a custom SourceBans reason and it worked perfectly. No issues with the plugin at all, thanks again.

Sweetness. I'm not quite ready to deploy this until I get more other "VIP" plugins set up, but good to know it should be smooth sailing!

Thanks for this plugin. I decided to try this out, we always used your previous version.

I changed my config file to this:

"admin_colors"
{
    //Eraserhead    
    "STEAM_0:1:20347237"
    {
        "flag"                ""
        "tag"                    ""
        "tagcolor"        ""
        "namecolor"        "{O}"
        "textcolor"        "{T}"
    }

I wanted to have an orange name and teamcolored chat.

But when i test i get a white name and green chat. Any idea what i did wrong?

Before we get to in depth... the new parser doesn't require blank fields. Try just doing...

PHP Code:

    //Eraserhead    
    "STEAM_0:1:20347237"
    {
        "namecolor"        "{BLA}"
        "textcolor"        "{T}"
    } 


Orange isn't supported in TF2, counter to what the chart indicates. Its really a event color. if you want to use that event color, have to stick with {BLA}. I think the blank entries with the invalid colors are causing your issue.

[eraserhead]

Thanks for the quick response. That worked. Shame orange doesn't work. Why is yellow not in the chart? Since the game itself can use that color for dropped items.

I'm not sure how this helps me...lookin for the config example. I see redblue and bluered but how does that search out the teams vs putting in each steam user ID.


Also is there a way ...anyway to keep the color BLACK cause right now it keeps changing to the colors of a item dropped,found, crafted etc... which means I go from Black, to yellow, to orange to purple etc etc depending on the previous item shown
