I know this is possible with temporary entities/messages, however what about creating a tree, wall, or gun only one player could see?

[Zenith77]

No, because messages are handled/processed client side, so therefore entities can be created without all the other player's connected to the server knowing about it.
You would have to create your own message, which most likely can't be done.

MSG_ONE?

[Des12]

How would you send MSG_ONE to a non-temporary entity? This even possible?

u can do it the same way engine-module handles partial invisibility when on third person mode

int AddToFullPack(struct entity_state_s *state, int e, edict_t *ent, edict_t *host, int hostflags, int player, unsigned char *pSet)
{
	if(ent == host) {
		if(FStrEq(STRING(ent->v.classname), "player")) {
			if(plinfo[ENTINDEX(ent)].iViewType != CAMERA_NONE) {
				ent->v.rendermode = kRenderTransTexture;
				ent->v.renderamt = 100;
				RETURN_META_VALUE(MRES_IGNORED, 0);
			}
		}
	}

	if(FStrEq(STRING(ent->v.classname), "player")) {
		if(plinfo[ENTINDEX(ent)].iViewType != CAMERA_NONE) {
			ent->v.rendermode = plinfo[ENTINDEX(ent)].iRenderMode;
			ent->v.renderamt = plinfo[ENTINDEX(ent)].fRenderAmt;
		}
	}

	RETURN_META_VALUE(MRES_IGNORED, 0);
}

donnu how cpu intensive that is though..

Misread your description. Sorry, and you cant with entities.

[k007]

can't you just set a entity invisable? and then show it invisabl to every but if the user has blah w\e ur doin change the rendering i'm not sure if this is possible

I think I know what you are talking about, as in if an entity is behind a wall your game does not render it, but once you move into view your game renders it.

That method would probably work but I'm going to bet that it makes the server laggy.
