Your message is a bit hard to understand but i guess you mean your admins are not announced and they als have no admin powers?

 

Well, let's sort some things.

At first you have to set up procon accounts for the server they should be admins on with the names they use ingame. Those names are case sensitiv but don not use clantags.

Second you have to assign them the privileges you want to give them on the server.

 

To use @say you have to enable the in-game-admin plugin.

My announcer does only compare a users ingame name with the account list of procon and if the account has the right to kick someone he is announced as admin. Alternative you can can add a name to the admin list inside the plugin settings.

No, there is no way to colorize them.

Guess i'll update the plugin at the weekend to have all functions re-enabled for BF3.

This also includes individual spawn messages like for BFBC2 and the yell.

I think I found a bug in your latest version:

It does not seem to announce kicks & bans anymore (both say & yell)

 

UPDATE:

It only seems to be announcing in ingame chat when the kick / ban was made from the ingame command. Not when kicked / banned from procon.

 

Also ingame @Ban is announced in chat-tab while @Kick is not.

 

Both kicks and bans from Procon don't get announced in chat-tab nor ingame chat.

What do you mean with "keeps yelling and does not stop"?

Do you mean it yells the message on every spawn, or that it looks like the yelled text never vanishes?

In the last case take a look at the console tab and quote the admin.yell command please

 

Keep in mind that procon needs a restart after updating the plugin and the plugin needs to discover on

which server (BFBC2/MoH/BF3) it runs. Therefore it fires a command and listens to the servers response.

As long as that response hasn't come it defaults to BFBC2 mode.

 

Hmm.. maybe i should switch that...

 

You can try it with disabling and enabling again which should let it discover the servers game type again.

You mean that if a player joins the game who is listed on the reservedSlotsList or on a VIP-List defined by the plugin settings gets another one time welcome message? Or do you mean that the joining of VIP players should be announced into the public just like the joining of an admin?

 

For the first case i would tend to direct your interest to the different "Welcome message" plugins.

For the second case... sure it's possible to do...

With your plugin We can send yell message when an admin is joining so i would lile a new category like Team member grouppe or VIp goup, if it's possible

So i think it's the second case.

For a player based welcome message only seen or directed to that special player better use something like

Jip. This would have an extra text like "A team member joined." / "Our Team Member xyz joined." which would be seen public if

someone of those vips enters the server.

I had the same problem yesterday. I wrote a ticket to my server provider and he got it to run, he said with the coming procon frostbite update this should be fixed

The coming procon update has nothing to do with updating plugins or with the functionality of this plugin.

 

To install a plugin to the layer host you have to be connected to that host with your local procon and select the plugin on the packages. If you do an update make sure your lokal installed version is the same as the one on the layer host. This way both, local and layer host will install the plugin. But to finalize the install process a restart of procon, local and layer, is needed. If you install/update it to a layer while connected to the layer you will see at your local procon that the process of your remote layer host is shown with its ip.

 

It might happen, due to network connection, that one goes into a timeout and that the process is only done for the local procon. It does its job, but its not perfect and 100% fail save. But makes things a bit easier. In case you have no remote access to your layer to install plugins on your own, or you procon hoster does not allow the creation of files in the plugin folder, you have to ask him to download and install.

 

The fist post contains a DOWNLOAD link. If you use that you have to place the files in their folders and restart procon.

It does not spot players. Well at least not like you spot players ingame and light them up.

It checks on a joining player if he is on the list of admins and will announce the joining of an admin by a message to all other players on the server.

 

The same will it do with kicks or bans it detects.

Normally only the player which has been kicked / banned sees the reason why. All other players only see that he has left the game. This plugin catches the event and the reason and it will announce that to the rest of players for example that player Bloody_Cheate has been banned for using an aimbot.
