did a way to have a separate chat .log for the next release instead to have all included in the etconsole.log ?

We will take this into consideration.

Here you are, this is my simple script which I use it on my server.

logname = "chatlog.log"
function et_ClientCommand( num, cmd )
if cmd == "say" or cmd == "say_team" or cmd == "say_buddy" then
 if et.trap_Argc() > 1 then
  local msg  = ""
  local name = et.Q_CleanStr(et.gentity_get(num, "pers.netname"))
  for i = 1, et.trap_Argc() - 1 do
   msg = string.format("%s %s", msg, et.Q_CleanStr(et.trap_Argv( i )))
  end
  WriteToFile(logname, string.format("[%s]-[%s]: %s\n", os.date(), name, msg ))
 else
  local name = et.Q_CleanStr(et.gentity_get(num, "pers.netname"))
  local msg  = string.format("[%s]-[%s]: %s\n", os.date(), name, et.Q_CleanStr(et.trap_Argv(1)))
  WriteToFile(logname, msg)
 end
end
end
function WriteToFile( filename, str )
fd, len = et.trap_FS_FOpenFile( filename, et.FS_APPEND )
et.trap_FS_Write( str, string.len(str), fd )
et.trap_FS_FCloseFile( fd )
end

thanks you a lot

with your help i made the lua script and add the line

i noticed for our server installation we have a liblua5.1.so

this will work with it ?

 

cuz they are different lua http://www.lua.org/download.html

You don't need to have liblua5.1.so for this script. The Lua interpreter is ibuilt into the mod. If you do need to install external Lua libraries, then you also need to use the qagame that is found from the dynamic_lua folder. It allows loading the external dependencies properly.
