When a client kill other players,is will show killed count and killed ways several second by screenoverlays,and play voice message,like CSOL.

I am second post plugin in this forum.
I am familiar with AMXX Plugins of CS1.6 ,and I'd love to make the weapon plugins.But later I felt boring.I found the Image Quality is much better in Source Engine,so I begin to study making SourceMOD Plugins.I hava much problem in making Source Plugins.I hope some master-hands could teach me,and help me solve the problem.Otherwise,my English is not good,is soso, everybody don't be strange with me.Hoho.

Kill_1 to Kill_4,and kill_headshot,kill_knife,Kill_grenade.

Please watch this video and look at pictures:

Hi, I like the pics a lot! Nice work.

You should mention this plugin enables sv_cheats 1... I assume because you use ClientCommand("r_screenoverlay \%s", blah), (not sure if it is a cheat command) but if so you can probably strip the cheat flags and execute, something like this?

Also you should probably prefix the title with [CSS].

PHP Code:

new String:overlays_file[64]; 


You should use decl instead of new on strings if you are filling the string with contents and not expecting them to be empty.

PHP Code:

public ShowKillMessage(client,type) 


No need for this to be public.

Mate this is bloody brilliant!

But I agree, get rid of the sv_cheats, it's just waiting for abuse ;)

Agreed as much as I think this is awesome theres no way in the world I'd allow sv_cheats on any server of mine. GJ though.

You can use r_screenoverlay without sv_cheats afaik.

Thanks Panda!

Also, this'll make an excellent replacement for those chatbox cluttering HLStatsX messages.

Awesome! I can't wait to try this out once it's fixed up.

Also, just as an example:

PHP Code:

    if(g_killCount[attacker] == 1)
    {
        if(StrEqual(weapon,"hegrenade"))
            ShowKillMessage(attacker,kill_grenade);
        else if(StrEqual(weapon,"knife"))
            ShowKillMessage(attacker,kill_knife);
        else if(headshot)
            ShowKillMessage(attacker,kill_headshot);
        else
            ShowKillMessage(attacker,kill_1);
    }
    else if(g_killCount[attacker] == 2)
    {
        ShowKillMessage(attacker,kill_2);
    }
    else if(g_killCount[attacker] == 3)
    {
        ShowKillMessage(attacker,kill_3);
    }
    else if(g_killCount[attacker] == 4)
    {
        ShowKillMessage(attacker,kill_4);
    } 


Could be:

PHP Code:

    new AttackerKillCount = g_killCount[attacker];
    switch(AttackerKillCount)
    {
        case 1:
        {
            if(StrEqual(weapon, "hegrenade"))
            {
                ShowKillMessage(attacker, kill_grenade);
            }
            
            else if(StrEqual(weapon,"knife"))
            {
                ShowKillMessage(attacker, kill_knife);
            }
            
            else if(headshot)
            {
                ShowKillMessage(attacker, kill_headshot);
            }
            
            else
            {
                ShowKillMessage(attacker, kill_1);
            }
        }
        
        case 2:
        {
            ShowKillMessage(attacker, kill_2);
        }
        
        case 3:
        {
            ShowKillMessage(attacker, kill_3);
        }
        
        case 4:
        {
            ShowKillMessage(attacker, kill_4);
        }
    } 


Just so you're not reindexing the array (no idea if this is the proper term, sorry if it isn't) every time, caching is nice

I tried removing sv_cheats from it, but it didn't work and I got massive spam with this. Maybe I messed up somehow, I hope somebody can make it work without sv_cheats

Woo, errors! , but it should run fine without sv_cheats, I'm using the same for my RTD without issues.
