This addon is now obsolete. Without this, the game now announce message of player joining on local server. For anyone who also want sound and Steam ID addition, try Player connect notification .

If I enter an official server, the mod is going to work?

Can you please fix it?
TheGamingVoid 3 Aug, 2023 @ 6:02pm 
yes! same here....

I think a recent update broke some scripts. This one prints both Joining and Joined messages when a player is connecting.

it also was one of the first addons I installed (with Left4Bots, take bot item, Dynamic Light and Self Propelled Props) but I could remove all other vpks temporarily to check if anything is interfering
Tendie 1 Jun, 2023 @ 9:18am 
yes, it does get loaded on server boot, it logs the following:

I'm not sure if that's all it logged on the other served because it *just worked* and I already cancelled that one
Thanks

Are you sure the addon is installed on your server?

Also, for previous Xeno response, I'd argue against cluttering the chat with SteamIDs, you can get those from the Steam Overlay by going to View Players, then blocking the person. Reporting them does nothing and doesn't prevent them from joining you again, blocking them does.

So I was hosting a crappy dedicated server with a crappy provider and it worked there (also on local), then I bought a much better server with a much better provider and now it doesn't work lol, any suggestions besides kms?

Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks for the tip.

You can typ in the developer console command "status", it prints steam id of players
(^^^) Xeno 27 Apr, 2023 @ 1:20am 
Is it possible to add their Steam ID? Just in case somebody trolls, you can report them.

Gaming_Bigfoot 28 Sep, 2020 @ 2:50pm 
I could've sworn the game used to show this... the fact that a mod is needed for it seems weird to me.
Cheers for making it

Finally! After 10 years and you finally put something that alerts players when someone connects.

Even so, I already have a plugin more or less like this. But this is very useful for players who don't know how to install plugins. Nice job! :)

i see lewd4dead server show player ip and location like (12.947.238.23, blyad paradise)
Sw1ft  [author] 30 Aug, 2020 @ 8:08am 
The only game event that transmits IP-address only contains local IP (like from Hamachi/Radmin or empty with an user id)
Aurelie 30 Aug, 2020 @ 8:00am 
pls make it leak ip : D
