I'll explain my situation. I've just begun modding HL1, I own a copy of VC++.NET but can't install it due to space requirements, so I'm using Dev-C++/MinGW. I am working off of botman's modified SDK 2.2 source, which for one thing means that there's no VGUI included. By following tutorials I've implemented a team selection menu which works great. I have had less success with trying to get the MOTD to show up, though. Here's the problem, I've added the CHudMOTD class back in, done a DECLARE_MESSAGE(), hooked the message, copied the drawing and message function from the earlier SDK, all of that. I have also got the message sending code in the game dll working, I have console prints telling me that the MOTD is sent just fine. But the MsgFunc_MOTD() function is never reached, and neither is the Draw() function. I'm at my wits end because I've gone over every messaging tutorial I can find, looked through the source, and everything looks correct. Any suggestions for me? I've tried not having the team menu show up on spawning, but that doesn't make any difference either.
