I know technically kills in a row is just that, as long as no one kills you, they are in a row, but bf3 battle log stats do-not count kill streaks like that. In your bf3 stats, if you die, crash, bad luck, out of bounds die, etc you lose your kill streak.

 

Another drawback is when some good jet pilots play and die, their streak continues. The inflated number being reported can sometimes cause a bit of rage in the server. e.g. A pilot who is at 100 kills and 7 deaths(from crashing) is still on a streak.

 

thanks

I think that is because 'bad luck' deaths do not cause events over rcon in BF3, so it cannot detect if they die. The only way to detect that is by monitoring their death count via the player list, and checking if it increases.

 

The only gripe I have with this plugin is that it accepts kill events coming from the server as valid kills. So if an autoadmin kills a player before anyone else in the server you'll always get " killed Y for first blood", the source is blank.

One of our members noticed on another server they had that feature and I don't know if its this plugin or not. Any advice would be helpful

The one I have now, is not working ( Most Melee Kills: %kills_melee_player% with %kills_melee% kills! )

edit: %mkkp% with %mkkn% knifekills ! doesn;t work either

Endroundstats keep changing back to the defaults, no mather what I do. Maybe I'm doing something wrong there?

I have my database hosted at Fragnet and have no problems with ADKATS or Stats and weapons logger for BF4 and BFH and the stats pages. Is there any way around this since I don't have control of the database on my own machine?

If I don't activate the Server Kills report, will the rest of the functionality like the Killstreak messages, etc, still work?

Yes, all that functionality still works if you do not use the database.

Update: Where is the donations link? It's either hiding or I'm just being a dumba$$ as not seeing it. Would like to make a donation to you guys for all the great work you've done for the community.

I was unable to to get the Kill Streaks plugin to work, as it would not show up in the plugins library after installation. For some reason the DLL file is not getting created after rebooting the Procon layer. I mentioned this in another thread.

Straight swap but always good to delete the associated .dll anyway. Do drop all your existing database tables associated with this plugin beforehand as I've not tested it with anything but.

How big of a prefix were you trying to use?

I don't recall the entire table name now but this is ours as it stands. (this is the only table with this issue as far as i can see)

SMEG_kills_gameplay_vehicles_gunshieldandtripod_sp ecs_gunshieldt

 

which, iirc, ends in "_noshield" when not truncated.

 

I did copy the table name into np++ and the length was ~75 characters.

in your plugins menu, find the "server kills" plugin. go to "plugin settings" and scroll all the way down. there is a line called "kill announcement list" there. all the way on the right you see 3 dots (...), click that.

 

now change the text after the weapon name (ie Melee|%kpn% has slit the throat of %vpn%!) the text with % on both sides are the names of the killer and victim, so in order to have that displayed you need to keep that in the text you make.

Code:

%kfb% has killed %vfb% with a %wfb% for FIRST BLOOD!

has the killing weapon in it, but Code:

%ksepn% has ended %pn%'s kill streak at %ksn% kills!

hasnt.

 

imo there should be either a better command list where there is possible to have the command you want (which might mean that a lot of commands need to be made) or there should be more "common commands" where the same command work in different places (ie no need for %kfb%, %pn% and %ksepn%, just one for killer)

Configure the Kill Announcement List with say or yell just like the Multikills.

 

Thank you.

Thank you.

I managed to do, I just changed this:

 

Code:

for (int i = 0; i < this.multikillMessageList.Count; i++)
        {
          messageSplit = this.multikillMessageList[i].Split('|');

          if (messageSplit[0] == this.playerMultikill[this.multikillAnnounceQueue[0]].ToString())
          {
            if (messageSplit[2] == "yell")
              this.ExecuteCommand("procon.protected.send", "admin.yell", messageSplit[1].Replace("%mp%", this.multikillAnnounceQueue[0]));
            else if (messageSplit[2] == "say")
              this.ExecuteCommand("procon.protected.send", "admin.say", messageSplit[1].Replace("%mp%", this.multikillAnnounceQueue[0]), "all");
          }
        }

You need to use "Roadkill|Something|yell"

I have the xpkiller's chat/stats logger up and running and working with the same database host. Do I need to do anything to the database first (i.e. import a SQL file or something)? I am using the same IP, same username/pw and same port as the other -- the only difference is I am using a separate DB for this plugin. I've re-edited the information multiple times to be sure I didn't mistype or add extra characters.....thank you in advance.
