taken from THIS threadn
nwhy ?nnbecause with the invisible plugin that I use to catch cheaters ( caught 3 more last night ) someone on your team will rat you when they see you invisible every time.nnso that would be sweet , if this could get rid of my icon.nnnwhat way is the plugin making you invis? cause the way i do it on my server it doesnt seem to show (and i asked an admin specifically if they could see my icon) and they said they couldnt... and ive never had teammates look 'at me' wierd when invis as if they see just my icon..nnthis is the code i use to go invis:nnhave fakemeta included... then my invis function calls this:n
fm_set_entity_visibility(id, 0)////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////n// invisibility stock (fakemeta_util)n//nstock fm_set_entity_visibility(index, visible = 1)n{n set_pev(index, pev_effects, visible == 1 ? pev(index, pev_effects) & ~EF_NODRAW : pev(index, pev_effects) | EF_NODRAW)nn return 1n}

I can verify that you are correct. I tested both methods on bots.rnrnThe method that Wilson's plugin uses is to modify the alpha value of the model for rendering. Because potentially the model could still be visible (if set to render only partially alpha), the client still draws its attachments (the team icons).rnrnThe nodraw flag tells the client to completely ignore all rendering of this entity. Thus, its attachments are not drawn (the team icons), and the name doesn't even come up when you look at the player.

But have you actually caught hackers with it? I still think the hack won't pick up the player anymore if you execute that function.

I can verify that you are correct. I tested both methods on bots..rnrncan the bots see you ?rnrnwhen I use dod_invisibility onrnrnthe bots can still see you and shoot at you.rnrnthats how I know its a bot or a cheater , if its a bot , I shoot them , if its a real person and they dont see you , I dont shoot them , I don`t use invisibility on my server to boost my score ( what would that prove ?)rnrnI use it to catch cheaters , but the annoying "Hey someone is invisible !" from a team mate , lets the suspected cheater know what you are doing.rnrnhow do I do it the way without a team icon ? ( remembering , I`m not that code wise to know if its allready spelled out here ) so write it out for dumbys.rnrninvisibility without an icon for dumbies edition.rnrnthanks

I have caught cheaters by the original method - just the basic form of the plugin with the icon still showing to teammates.

ijack, learn some bloody respect. no one here gets paid to give support to every server admin who is too lazy to learn to code himself. we do it to help the community.nnit's one thing to bump a thread, but it's another to insult us while doing it.nnto answer your question, you have to hook AddToFullPack on post, then make sure the entity is a player (and connected) and set its ES_Solid to SOLID_NOT

All i would like is a very good, clear, and non intrusive way to find and deal with Cheaters, hackers, wall hacks, aimbots, so on and so forth, I thought that going invisibly would help in this quest, but as you have stated above, ya as long as they can see the icon, it just makes it seem your cheating yourself, so all in all and NO Disrespect to anyone, this is what I am and have been trying to do lolrnNOt a good coder, not a programer like some of the people here and out there, just trying to find an easy way to do thisrnso IF anyone have a good idea then please post or feel free to pm me or what ever you want to do all will be greatly helpfull.rnthanks for your time rnalso the wilson invisability plugin works great, good job Sir.rnijack

There's a fix posted for this issue somewhere, probably at the top of this thread - I've added it into the version of invisibility I run, so I know it's on here.nnHowever, this appears to me totally ineffective at catching hackers since it doesn't just change your rendering... re finding hackers, etc: there's a good plugin around called admin_spectate_esp or something along those lines, that draws lines for you so you can watch if people are walling or always getting headshots.nnPersonally, I subscribe to the "if you kill me, you're hacking" school of thought.

I had a guy from the 7th ID snipe me on hill classic while I was invisible the other day , I stuck my head up over the heal ( allied side ) and he shot me...the next time...I stuck my whole body over the hill and he looked at me through the scope but wouldn't shoot , but he kept looking at me.rnrnthen he left real quick.rnrnPlayers are still getting caught with this plugin
