rn// a little bit of realism for your public server ;-)

These compiled builds sat loose in the server's script folder rather than attached to a post. They are matched to this release by comparing their decompiled Pawn against the source published above, so treat the attribution as strong but not certain. Versions come from the register_plugin() call recovered from the bytecode.

Can we make this work for spectators as well, so anyone in spectator team has a black screen?

Nevermind, it already does since you have to die to switch!rnThanks, this is superb - an excellent anti-ghosting tool for realism scrimmages!

tell how many players are in the server and do fade-to-black always when there are less than 4 players. but when more join, then use the values defined by the servers cfg files or admins.nnbe even better if there were a cvar to turn on and off this less than 4 player fade-to-black mode.nnRookie

I have modified this code, and borrowed Tatsu's suggestion for the death fade to improve the plugin as follows:rnThe death fade now lasts MUCH longer, which is especially useful for this function I added:rnAnyone that joins the spectator team also gets the fade, and it lasts as long as seems possible, which is excellent.rnrnSo why this modification? Well - it prevents ghosting, this is especially useful during realisms. Everyone check it out, let me know if it needs to be fixed, etc.rnrn

;4195']nThoughts?

nhttps://www.dodplugins.net/forums/showthread.php?t=669n nbut ... n n

nnew FadeToBlack = get_user_msgid("ScreenFade")nmessage_begin(MSG_ONE_UNRELIABLE,FadeToBlack,{0,0,0},victim)nwrite_short( 1<<13)nwrite_short(~0)nwrite_short( 1) <<-- change this to 5nwrite_byte(0)nwrite_byte(0)nwrite_byte(0)nwrite_byte(255)nmessage_end()n

n nsetting that value from 1 to 5 will ignore the ~0 previous value set by the write_short and simply make the fade last indefinetely until the next time a fade message is sent... (happens on player spawn by setting back to normal) and this will accomplish what you want as far as perm. blackout on spec... which btw.. my recent plugin does perfectly well... with the option of setting colors as well... not that this plugin was broken or bad by any means... I just will not pick up others work without being asked... and I learn more by "recoding" what I want done anyways...

this only works when you die, but anyway to make it work so if you go spec, it makes it black.
