I also see the "PC_DIALOG_TEXT_VIPKICK" dialog.

Is there a way to hide the PB kicks? I have named bans only set to yes.

With the actual available version you only have the choice to disable kick messages to be shown,

but you can not difference between core server kicks and pb kicks.

 

Well, i'll see if i can add a more detailed config.

I've added some switches to the kick and ban settings.

Now you can choose if PB bans / kicks should be shown or not.

 

Remember, it may take a while to show up on the package list

as update.

Hi mate, I can't seem to change the yell announce ban option to yes.

Has anybody else had this trouble?

Does it mean you can not change the setting because it switches back to no

or do you mean it is set to yes but has no effect?

It's switched back to no as soon as you have selected yes.

Hi Phil,

 

On the R32 The message "PC_DIALOG_TEXT_VIPKICK." still appears. Could be possibe that your plugin read this message but shows something different? (Reserved slot used, VIP accessing, etc.)

 

Thanks,

 

Legate.

Please specify where this "PC_DIALOG_TEXT_VIPKICK" dies appear?

Until now i only have seen that as a message shown to a player by his BFCB2 client

after he has left the server but never as reflected message inside the game.

 

If i remember right DICE had confirmed the display of that placeholder in the client/server

as a bug related to the changes on handling the reserved slots, but with very low priority to fix it.

 

Hmm... well, i'll take a look if i can rewrite that message if it is send over the rcon as reason for a

kick.

I guess that cannot be altered via rcon since those kicks are issued by the server directly.

I still wonder what causes it to change, since some servers have it, but others dont.

I cannot find either the download nor does the PulgIn appear in Procon ...

Restart/Reload Plugins does not help.

 

I would be glad to receive some hints :smile:

Well, good question.

I have also no explicit answer if it is caused by the server, the client or both in combination.

For that reason i want to know if someone has seen this message echoed by my plugin as a

reason.

 

As long as it is only shown to the player been kicked out by his client, there is no way to change

what the one been kicked out gets to read. But if it is server based "bug" it might be that the

server sends this placeholder reason also with the kick-event as a reason. If that happens the

plugin could change the text it sends to the chat messages.

After you downloaded a plugin using the package tab on the start page you have to close/stop procon

and start it again. While starting up it will detect the plugins downloaded and ready to install and install

them.

 

While doing this procon starts up with the update information window. If it has finished you find

the plugin on the plugin tab and the status on the package tab should have been changed to

"installed".

The way you discribed I did exactly before. Other PlugIns install smoothly (Admin InGame Map Commands, Quake counter). After klicking "install Package" a "restart" icon appears.

Restarting Procon leads to the update message appears and I find the installed PlugIns within the Procon tab.

 

Only with "Admin Announcer and onSpawn Message" this procedure does NOT work :huh:

 

Can you send me the package manually maybe?

 

Meanwhile I think I am too stubid :sad:

This should have nothing to do with your plugin. I just installed it a few days/weeks ago and experienced that messages on our servers before too.

Afaik, that was "broken" a few serverpatches ago, but wasn't stated that important to release a fix for it. We should maybe ask Kalms at fpsadmins about that :smile:

Well, i did that a while ago. :smile:

The answer i got was what i posted in post nr. 40 and before... a known client/server bug with very low priority to be fixed.

 

So we both see it the same way, until someone reports to see that PC_DIALOG... text in-game send by the plugin there is

no need to do anything.

Yup, seems reasonable to me :tongue:

I used this plugin to announce kicks on my server hosted by gamed.de and it displayed that "PC_DIALOG_VIP_KICK" message.

I added reserved slots via Procon and it was saving in the file reservedslotlist.txt in the server config directory.

And there was another file reservedslots.txt which was empty. As I remember.

I do not know what the kicked players saw as a kick reason but I guess it was the same message.

I hope I am not mistaken in anywhere in my post because my english is no good.

Have I said something useful?

Jip. If you are unsure don't hesitate to write an explanation in your main language.

We are an international mixed group so someone will help with translation. :ohmy:

 

Well, to be sure i'll take a look at the plugin as it should be no big deal to catch that

message before it get displayed in the ingame chat.

 

Maybe you have a the chat-log activated and have that message saved there?

That would help me a bit as i never encountered it in the game chat myself.

[01:25:32] Seiya1971 has joined the server..

[01:25:32] AdminIn_and_SpawnMsg > Admin joined the game!

 

The "PC_DIALOG.." always appears when the server is full and one player with reserved slot joined the server.

Well, i've added a configurable replacement string for that VIPKICK string.

 

Feel free to test it.

Do do so do the following:

  • stop procon
  • open your /Plugins/
  • make a backup of CAdminIn_and_SpawnMsg.inc
  • replace CAdminIn_and_SpawnMsg.inc with the one in the attached zip
  • restart procon

For testing only:

CAdminIn_and_SpawnMsg_for_testing.zip

 

Actually i have some trouble with the package system, but Phogue is

on it. As soon as that is fixed the new version can be retrieved through

the package tab.
