Hello all,

Can anyone help make a plugin to change the L4D1 glow effects colour for picking up items - changing them from their default colour to another colour effect? The plugin needs to work client-side so that all players share the same colour effects from the remote Windows server. I'm looking to change the game's default values as shown in the spoiler here:

Spoiler

//this highlights items-at-a-distance when pointing gun reticle at them - current colour is pale blue
cl_glow_item_far_b 1.0
cl_glow_item_far_g 0.4
cl_glow_item_far_r 0.3

and this:

//this highlights items for player to pick-up - current colour is white
cl_glow_item_b 1.0
cl_glow_item_g 0.7
cl_glow_item_r 0.7

I want to CHANGE the highlighted items-at-a-distance to RED, and the pick-up items to GREEN, as shown here:

Spoiler

//NEW RED colour for highlighting items-at-a-distance when pointing gun reticle at them
cl_glow_item_far_b 0.0
cl_glow_item_far_g 0.0
cl_glow_item_far_r 1.0

and:

//NEW GREEN colour for highlighting items for players to pick-up
cl_glow_item_b 0.0
cl_glow_item_g 1.0
cl_glow_item_r 0.0

I did find a L4D1 glow effects plugin at this forum link here. but I couldn't get it to work on my remote server, the plugin is faulty for some unknown reason. I kept getting an error from my server in the client remote console as - "FCVAR_SERVER_CAN_EXECUTE prevented server running command."

But that broken plugin is quite complex for my needs, I only need something simple, just to swap 6 CVAR settings with 2 new colours. My reasoning for the colour change is that RED would be "item CAN'T be picked-up by a player, and GREEN would be 'item CAN be picked-up by player.

Would anyone be able to make a simple plugin for this request?
