actually.... i found a plugin that can capture game events like "player_death"...
see this.... http://www.gotfrag.com/tf2/forums/thread/411952/ in that page..... it says, the plugin can "monitor kill steaks", to help people recording demos, knows what happens in that demo file.... but you told me that's impossible to capture game events in a CLIENT SIDE plugin......, not only that.... also it can be VAC banned! this plugin proves 1 or 2 facts.... 1) is not impossible capture game events in a client side plugin like "player_death" 2) using this plugin can VAC ban you? what do you think?, detecting game events from client side plugin is not possible?...... how this plugin manage to detect kill steaks? 2009/12/11 Joel R. <[email protected]> > Protection service for cheat server plugins?
