coded the hkfuncmsg.ccp, hook.h, cmd.ccp, and cmd.h copied straight from the source of your FLhook version with the unichat working, dunno how this was happening.

Oh, you missed a declaration I made in the CInGame.h and HkCbIServerImpl.cpp files that allows admin to be accessed from CCmds.cpp. At the top of HkCbIServerImpl.cpp you needCInGame admin;and after the class declaration in CInGame.h you need```
extern CInGame admin;

well that made it compile right, but it still shows up Console sending the message and not admin.

Sounds like you’re not calling the right HkMsgU function. There’s three of them, and the one that replicates the /u functionality is HK_ERROR HkMsgU(wstring wscSender, wstring wscMessage), the one with two arguments, the sender of the message and the actual message. HK_ERROR HkMsgU(wstring wscMessage) is the original function used and will not show the name of the admin. Also note that the way I implemented it (not sure if you changed it at all) you must execute the .msgu command in game for it to show a name, otherwise it will just revert back to using the normal one.

I have tried many things, even modified my cmds.ccp and cmds.h to try adding those into arguments and see if it worked, still got nothing, i have done nothing to change the way its coded, just directly from the way you coded it (unless your source code is wrong). i tried adding those into arguments and it just showed Console: with no message. i guess i will continue using Flshell longer though i was gonna get rid of it soon to make the server look more professional.
