I can get some message events to work out fine, for example I have a head-shot message event based on the particular sniper rifle used, i.e. springfield, mosin-nagant, and Kar-98. Works like a charm every time and broadcast a unique message based on the weapon that did the headshot

I am trying to use the same type of setup for self-kill messages when ppl die from their own grenades. I thought I followed it just right, but it don't seem to work at all.

Also, I don't know how to get the event message set up for bomb-plant and bomb-deffuse.

So, my ? for Cobra would be this- Could you please take and post a SS of server watch while viewing your event message set up you have on your server for the bomb-plant and self inflicted grenade death messages?

I am sure there is just something simple I am missing, but can't figure it out.

Thanks

Thanks.

I got the bomb_plant and bomb_deffuse working great.

Also, stopped by your serv, saw there was a variable %time%.. nice! Lots of us playing have a need to know what time it is, since we play from the dark depths of whatever corner of the house the wife has allowed us to keep our PC in that week....so now we can easily find out when it is time to leave.

still having probs with the AC client though.

Thanks. One thing is the different event messages for which grenade a player self-kills with.

I have assigned each grenade it's weapon name, one for each of the 4 armys different nades.

It worked, sort of. What it did was send the announcement for all 4 of them. Should I assign different MOD_xxx_xxx;xxx for each different grenade?

What I did now is just one message for all when they blow themselves up. I thought I could do it like I did for the sniper rifles and head shots- When a sniper gets a head shot with different rifles it prompts different head shot kill messages.

Actually, I think I could get by the messaing thing. If you want to offer assistance, I would relly like to get the AC portion working. I was on your catch-gamer server last night with the AC client running for a while. did it show up as AC client connected?
