How To Stop Kill Feed From Expiring?
I'm working on a video and I have a demo in which I want the killfeed to stay up throughout an entire round, but the feed messages expire too fast. Is there a command to stop the killfeed messages from expiring? Also, if you know it, can I make it only display kills from one player?

I do actually like this haha and I'm gonna use it, but I actually meant just to filter the killfeed so that only one player's messages show up. In this clip multiple teammates are getting killed in the feed, but I want it only to display the kills that this one player got instead of showing all messages from the round.

Actually one second I think I figured it out!

maybe then that for hlae

Let's assume you want to only show kills by player PlayerName:

- Enable mirv_deathmsg debug 1 and wait until PlayerName does a kill, then write down the attackerUid (or wait until he gets killed and write down the victimUid).

Now if you want to block everything except kills by that player use the uid number you just noted down:
mirv_deathmsg block !uid *

Or if you want to see him getting killed too, then enter this instead:
mirv_deathmsb block !uid !uid

If you want to clear all blocks again enter:
mirv_deathmsb block clear
Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed! I also figured out the kill feed expiring. You were so helpful man, thank you again!

If anyone is trying to view this post to figure out the same questions, then download the HLAE program and follow the first part of this tutorial for installing it:
https://youtu.be/ou1yRMk1YNU

I would personally say to make sure steam is in offline mode before running this, since it is VAC bannable. I'm brand new to the software but as far as I can tell it is a popular movie making tool. You SHOULD be fine if you are offline and don't join any VAC secured servers (it even gives you a message when starting the game with the program saying that it is currently impossible to join VAC servers anyways)

To STOP KILLFEED FROM EXPIRING, use command mirv_deathmsg lifetime 60 (this number value can be extended but by default it keeps killfeed up for 60 seconds)

To SHOW KILLS ONLY FROM ONE PLAYERNAME,
mirv_listentities isPlayer=1 // note down the XUID (replace below with it)
mirv_deathmsg filter clear
mirv_deathmsg filter add attackerMatch=!x<XUID> victimMatch=!x<XUID> block=1 lastRule=1
(^When you replace the xuid here, make sure to delete all of "<XUID>". You will replace the more than and less than symbols as well as the letters with the xuid of the player you want to display in the feed.)

If you want to clear all blocks again enter:
mirv_deathmsb block clear"
(I tried using this offline and it didn't work. I think it's because it needs to be able to read/retrieve steam id's and therefore can only be used online. Maybe use an alternate account which you can get csgo on for free just to be safe. EDIT: Also, I wrote this before I fully got it working. It did end up working while online but only after some other things were tweaked as well. It could still work offline.)

This link is incredibly helpful and will tell you all you need to know to get these commands working:

I hope this works for you guys. I was lucky enough to have someone like sYc quick to respond so I figured I'd like to help everyone else too. Good luck!
