Or do what i found in a map which was pretty cool, use servercommand and put

say "blah"

Walla, in game credits in the chat area (Use timers to do it every 2 minutes or so :P)

did you mean text credits? is this for SP? is this a mod? if yes to all 3, there's a credits file (<modfolder>/scripts/credits.txt) that you edit.

here's more info: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Credits
(you don't have to do all the music & fading & stuff if you don't want... just the env_credits and the txt file really).

@lodle: that's because this is a repost from the SDK section.

@boby123: don't do that

for a sp mod go to <modfolder>/scripts/ and edit credits.txt.

then place an env_credits in your map

If you only want to show your name, use a Game_text (http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Game_text) entity. Click the name to go to the wiki page.
