Ultimate Welcome

Description:
I've seen multiple plugins that offer a welcome message for users. I decided to take that idea and expand on it into one plugin. This plugin basically offers what most other plugins offer and more features added onto it. This is the kind of plugin you would want to use if you have multiple uses for welcome messages.

Differences from other plugins:
- This has the 'MoreColors' extension support built in so you can setup colored messages using tags.
- This has 2 loading modes! 1st is translation loading which loads up text from the translation file so it has support for multiple languages and the 2nd is just a ConVar for simplicity.
- You can setup a tag as the prefix without having to change around the welcome text itself.

ConVars:

• Ultimate_Welcome_version - Version Control
• sm_ultimatewelcome_status - 1 - Status of the plugin: (1 = on, 0 = off)
• sm_ultimatewelcome_load - 0 - Type of message loading: (1 = 'message' ConVar, 0 = Translations)
• sm_ultimatewelcome_tag - [SM] - Tag to Use: (Blank = No Tag, max 32 characters)
• sm_ultimatewelcome_message - Welcome to our server %N! - If load is set to 1, use this instead. (%N is replaced with clients name)
• sm_ultimatewelcome_sound - '' - Play a Sound on connect: (blank = disabled, relative to sound folder - 'folder/play.wav')
• sm_ultimatewelcome_timer - 5 - Time after a client is put into the server to show messages: (0 = Instant)

Includes:

1. More Colors
2. AutoExecConfig

Installation Guide:

1. Download & unzip package below.
2. Place SMX file into 'plugins' & phrases into 'translations'.
3. Type 'sm plugins load Ultimate_Welcome' into console.
4. Visit configurations folder and find 'Ultimate_Welcome.cfg' and edit it to your liking.
5. Reload configuration file with 'exec cfg/Ultimate_Welcome' or just reload the plugin again.

Gonna try it, never had luck with plugins that plays a sound when players join the server, lets see if i have luck now!

EDIT: Placed all the files correctly, restarted server and the server didn't turn on, i deleted the smx from your plugin and server started working normally.

Maybe this won't work in CS:GO? or it's my problem?

That's a plugin that allows users to set custom join messages/sounds, this plugin sends them text/sounds when they join the server themselves. (introduction)

would be cool if i could have a welcome message for my donators that different from regular connecting players, and admins.. like i would have a message for any regular player that joins mention something about the perks available if they donate. obviously my current donors/admins wouldn't need to see this and the donors wouldn't need to see the welcome message for the admins

I should probably point out that MoreColors only works on HL2:DM, DoDS:, CS:S, and TF2. None of the other games support the \x07 or \x08 color codes... well, CS:GO supports \x07 and \x08, but NOT as hex color codes.
