Pass more info through the GUI?

Plop.

I'd like to know where i can found the code part that allow guis to "read" CVARs.
ultimatly, i want to be able to make "if/else" CVARs checks (if "gui::ui_name" == "casimir" for exemple)...

I don't got the source yet, compiler either, so it's really to know where to start to look at, and how to handle it.

Thanks.

I could be wrong, but I don't think it's possible to do that with the SDK.
You probably should do those checks in the code and not in the gui itself...I think you cannot even compare strings in a gui.
You can set a float value in the gui (from the code) to let it know what to do, like the "nightmare" check in the mainmenu.
