You need to modify the file cl_hud.c on the source code.

...which would get you banned for having a modified executable, actually. So no, you can't.

First, you need Visual C++ in order to compile. You can use lcc or something else but takes longer to setup.

If you do it, you'll probably get global banned. It's not a big deal, and not worth doing.

I dont think he'll get global banned for 2 reasons: It wouldnt give him an unfair advantage over other players, and as far as I know, there is no way to find if a person is connecting with a modified client.

I do believe that build 18 has some extra cheat-detecting stuff thrown it.

Very true. In fact I got a warning about modified content, then I realized that my method for making my "Ice Man (http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=5705.msg66124#msg66124)" work could be considered 'cheating', somehow.

1. Get source code
2. Get VS6
3. Open project file
4. Make changes
5. Compile

It's really not something you should be doing, though. Especially for something as non-critical as the word 'kill'.

Well, if he doesnt know how to compile the source code, I doubt he'll find out how to modify it to do what he wants.

He asked how to compile, and I told him. ;)
