It's not dead, but it hasn't got many updates since August of last year. It also isn't as that reliable as 1.4.* or 1.5.*F

If it had sourcecomms i would use it more and report back more.

There is a dev version of sourcecomms for sourcebans much easier to install(since it's a plugin for SB2.0)

[snelvuur]

You got a link to that?

You can find sourcecomm's developer's github page in one of the issues for sb2.0, you'll need the develop branch of sourcecomms

Thanks for the tip @Wildcard..

For others:

1. Use https://github.com/GameConnect/SourceBans and just get the zip.
2. Use https://github.com/d-ai/SourceComms/tree/develop and also just get the zip.

Follow the instructions, notable things are that you don't need a sourcecomms database in the databases.cfg anymore and that you need to "enable/install" sourcecomms inside sourcebans gui to make it active.

And last, there is still a bug in there https://github.com/GameConnect/SourceBans/issues/40 which means you need to recompile sourcebans.sp (for easy reference, that means https://github.com/GameConnect/SourceBans/pull/46/files)

I think if one of the devs give control from github to someone like the author of sourcecomms to at least do some merges it would be a bit more up to date.

But so far it works fine from my first checks. I like the whole fact that you don't have plain text files on the server anymore, it got messy anyways.

Update: ok so found that reported players (mail for that report) don't trigger in my case, or that you can open the reported player / delete him. Same for Global overrides. You can see overrides globally if you just add them to the database, wildcards example: Insert into `sb_overrides` (`type`,`name`,`flags`) Values ('one of the 2 options','<name here>','<flags');

On group level there is no override screen to display / edit it. But that can be done by inserting too i believe.

Don't know if i missed anything else, but if that is the only thing left then it doesn't need a lot more to be fully functional.

Ok, in light of above things.. since its really close near finishing i would like to ask if someone can finish up the project so that others can use it too.

I wont code so how can i help? i'll offer 100 dollars if it gets finished. Perhaps more are willing to do that too and someone can step up to do the last bits. We all have busy lives, why not get a few beers in return.

Is someone of the developers active in this board and can tell us something like about the process?

i only want to know if a beta release (or maybe a stable release) will be released soon/this year.

Considering that the last commit was in August, I'd say no.
