CSB Death Effects

v1.0.0 0 downloads Daemon666 Last updated: Jul 15, 2026

Blood burst, gib shower and an optional explosion on headshot/knife kills, sent as temp entities.

CSB Death Effects makes kills look better. When a player dies the plugin reads the DeathMsg event and sends temp entities at the victim's position: a blood burst, a gib shower, and — for headshot or knife kills — an extra explosion. Each effect is independently toggled by a cvar, and a short per-victim cooldown keeps a chaotic round from flooding the network.

Features

  • Blood burst (TE_BLOODSPRITE) and gib shower (TE_BREAKMODEL).
  • Bonus explosion (TE_EXPLOSION) on headshot or knife kills.
  • Effects sent as MSG_PVS temp entities — only nearby players receive them.
  • Per-effect cvars and a per-victim rate limit.

Installation

  1. Compile csb_death_effects.sma and copy it to addons/amxmodx/plugins/.
  2. Add it to plugins.ini and change the map.

No extra modules are required; the sprites and gib model used are stock Half-Life assets.
