Halvhjearne Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) Im not sure i found the best way to do it, but it works and currently i do not see a better way (maybe epoch devs can shed some light on how this would be done better or perhaps integrate this?), i havent seen anything about killmessages anywhere and i guess some servers might have been waiting for something like this for a bit now, so here it is: with this installed, you can easily setup the following types of killmessages: sideChat //note that sideChat only shows if more than one player is on the server (not that it matters much) globalChat systemChat titleText cutText hint hintSilent dynamictext obviusly you can switch any of these on or off (in settings.sqf) and besides this, it can add a custom channel to your server with the name and/or colour you specify at the top of the settings file ... you can also swith on/off if you want it to show killfeed from players killed by ai or simmular (alltho sappers will currently show as error: no vehicle, as there is no killer left to check). to install this, all you need to do is put all files in a folder called "addons\messages" in your mission, edit settings as you like and add this line: [] execVM "addons\messages\init.sqf"; to the very bottom of your init.sqf if that does not work, try at the top. if you have A3EAI it might be a good idea to move this line: #include "A3EAI_Client\A3EAI_initclient.sqf"; to the very bottom of your init. (you can also edit the second line of settings.sqf to match your prefered folder structure) Link: https://github.com/Halvhjearne/killfeed as requested i have now added a study body function to this. here is a picture of how the killfeeds look: (note that the red custom chat is now unsupported by me) Edited May 26, 2015 by Halvhjearne mgm, Darth_Rogue, -CJ- and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions? im not exactly sure what you mean, but i havent heard of any problems yet ... if ai kills you it will only show in white text also it depends on what options you switched on/off in the settings, what type of killfeed you will get. edit: i just tested it and everything works just fine.
