what is the script to fade a person screen black for 15 seconds?

[Exolent[jNr]]

What to add in plugin:

new g_MaxPlayers;
new g_msgScreenFade;

public plugin_init()
{
    g_MaxPlayers = get_maxplayers();
    g_msgScreenFade = get_user_msgid("ScreenFade");
}

make_ScreenFade(plr, Float:fDuration, red, green, blue, alpha)
{
	new i = plr ? plr : get_player();
	if( !i )
	{
		return 0;
	}
	
	message_begin(plr ? MSG_ONE : MSG_ALL, g_msgScreenFade, {0, 0, 0}, plr);
	write_short(floatround(4096.0 * fDuration, floatround_round));
	write_short(floatround(4096.0 * fDuration, floatround_round));
	write_short(4096);
	write_byte(red);
	write_byte(green);
	write_byte(blue);
	write_byte(alpha);
	message_end();
	
	return 1;
}

get_player()
{
	for( new plr = 1; plr <= g_MaxPlayers; plr++ )
	{
		if( is_user_connected(plr) )
		{
			return plr;
		}
	}
	
	return 0;
}

How to use:

// plr is the player index
// fDuration is the time in seconds to be displayed
// red, green, and blue are the RGB colors for the final color
// alpha is the transparency of the color

Example:

public my_func(id)
{
    make_ScreenFade(id, 15.0, 0, 0, 0, 255);
}

Well, apparently, you can't copy my code correctly.
So, I'll change the tags to [code] tags.

And the id is the index that you are using in the plugin.
If you don't know how to use simple functions, I can't help you.

lol sorry i kidna think i found out how to use it but can u make it [code] please, im just a little tired

[whosyourdaddy]

it works great thank you alot

[whosyourdaddy]

im kinda having a time issue im using this atm

make_ScreenFade(id, get_cvar_float("rules_hudmessage_time"), 0, 0, 0, 255);

and my rules_hudmessage_time is 35, i also tried switching it with 35.0 but the black screen seems to be workign only for 3 seconds and then it fades away

edited* i noticed u cant do more then 30 seconds so i thought i could do like a set_task but im not sure how to do it.. this is what im currently doing

public my_func(id)
{
  make_ScreenFade(id, 29.0, 0, 0, 0, 255);
      set_task(24, my_funcc(id))
 
}
 
public my_funcc(id)
{
  make_ScreenFade(id, 10.0, 0, 0, 0, 255);
 
}

but of course the set_task is wrong, how would i fix it

[Exolent[jNr]]

public my_func(id)
{
    new Float:length = get_cvar_float("rules_hudmessage_time");
    /* you should convert this to pcvar */
    
    make_ScreenFade(id, length, 0, 0, 0, 255);
    set_task(length, "task_Blind", id);
}

public task_Blind(id)
{
    new Float:length = <your value here>;
    make_ScreenFade(id, length, 0, 0, 0, 255);
}

woot it works perfectly now, but is there a way to put something in it so it waits till the player is dead and then it does the screen fades?

[Sn!ff3r]

till the player is dead and then it does the screen fades?

Your english is bad... maybe you want

mp_fadetoblack 1

?

[whosyourdaddy]

well what i doing is having a black screen pop up and then the rules for our server in a hud message but i want this to happen once the player dies, think you can write what i need to put in the script please.

mabye something like

if(!is_user_alive(id))
{
my_func(id)
}

or put like a set task on it so it will wait till the user dies or something and then does my function
