Hi there Twisted,

As with other reports, the plugin in its current guise crashes the servers after the recent Valve Christmas present-we-didn't-want-or-need-update. ;)

It is a popular plugin, so if you have the time before Xmas or whenever is good, I'm sure a lot of people, including ourselves, would be grateful if you would recompile this so that it works with the current MM / SM setup.

Much appreciation for all your efforts over this year, and the tremendous plugs you've afforded us the pleasure of using.

Cheers!

This doesn't work no more.

If you attempt to use it it will crash your server,

wait for a update guys.

I haven't seen panda online for quite a while. I emailed him a while ago and never got a reply so I assumed he's gone on a early holiday. I hope he's having fun!

No guarantee that this works, however for those of you that are feeling adventurous. Try it out, it should work.

It doesnt crash the server and it shows the plugin running in "sm plugins list" but, no effects show no matter how you configure the settings in the plugin cfg. Thx for trying.

I did re-compile the sp also and it does genarate the cfg file but still no tracer effects but no crashes either...so close.

So you can test out this one , no gamedata.txt needed , if you want to adjust the BeamPosition search for this and after changing compile it yourself:
if(TR_DidHit(trace))
{
TR_GetEndPosition(vecPos, trace);
vecOrigin[0] += 0;
vecOrigin[1] -= 0;
vecOrigin[2] -= 0;

or try sm_advanced_laser , it uses differant Beams....

Notice how the laser plugin looks diff than the way the other plugins are listed in the list. No effects, doesnt crash the server or anything but doesnt work either, Maybe its just a small fix to get it right thx 4 trying.
And I did remove the gamedata txt from the old version also.

[andi67]

for sm_tracer_effects you have to type "!sm_tracers" in chat and than enable it through the menu....but for sm_advanced_laser there is need for manually enable , also you should upgrade SM to 1.3.7 AND MM to 1.8.5.....

this only work for css?

Ok Andi thx it does work that way.
But team colors no longer work in the Sm cfg.
Is there a way to have it auto on by default with just with team colors.
The reason I ask is...my server is jetpack server with huge maps.
It was nice before being able to see red or blue lasers to help find players
that are flying all around the map.
Not trying to be a pain but, getting the word out to each player about having to type !sm_tracers is goin be kinda hard and I even use the voice adverts plugin to spread the word on how to turn on the Jetpack bind.
No biggy but would be nice auto on by default with team colors.
But all and all great work thx for the fix
