Hi,
I have implemented a server plugin collecting damage stats and I now
want to display this information in GUI on a client after the
player_death event. I have tried to use the create_message method with
the DIALOG_MSG type because this type allows to fadein/fadeout
messages. The problem is
GO STEAM 3 to Valve for being ahead of the game, even though
everyone bitches about it

use a newline call at the end of your code, or have a
look at the server_empty plugin, it has some info on
it, in the comments

Well, you're looking at overriding the ReadEncryptedKVFile() function in
weapon_parse.cpp - or at least commenting it out. Of course, you'd then
have to manually set all those variables in the weapon's constructor
function, which sounds to me like a fairly time-consuming and mundane
task.

But wouldn't it be safer to not let the users play with this stuff,
hide it in the code?(I haven't modded HL2 yet, so I don't know exactly
how the txt files work)

Sure, if you're paranoid it's nice to hide things in the DLL... But I'd
say that at release-time, packing them into a GCF is good enough. A
large proportion of your user base either doesn't know how to change
those script files, or quite frankly doesn't care... We're not all
cheaters ;)

I do not know exactly what you are talking about.
I have checked the server plugin example, which I have already used to
create my plugin, but the only thing I have found was the DIALOG_TEXT
message type, but this one pops up another window waiting for an ok
click.
I have not found a newline
It's easy to override these variables... in fact just as Valve did for
HL1...
checkout one of the various gamerules.cpp files.
I think you'll find that in multiplay_gamerules.cpp Valve forced various
values after they were read in from the script file.
So it really shouldn't be that difficult.

Yeah, but the problem is that the DISPLAY_MSG type just accepts single
line messages. If you try to send multi line messages the message
popup size doesn't resize and the 2nd line is simply cut off.

That's all very well, but I hardly think filling up *our* inboxes with
complaints is going to help your cause. Post on anti-steam sites, start
a petition, e-mail Valve - these are all valid ways of getting your
point across. Diluting this mailing list with off-topic, in my opinion,
isn't.

Perhaps you could use non-player-controllable vehicles (either though AI
or a pre-set path) instead. There is no other way to prevent BF1942

Well that is a good question
If the server sets all this info, then in theory why would the client need
those files? (Unless it is single player type game)
So yes I believe the server does control this but is it possible for the
client to somehow override these?

Your plugin code needs to be able to handle an out of date (or even
