Does anyone know where the file is containing the killfeed is located?

Would want to mess around but I can't file for any file that seems to be related to killfeed (death messages like "Xaero ate Stripe's rocket"...

Does anyone know in what .pk3 file it is?

Edit: Found it in the github : ioq3master/code/cgame/cg_event.c

Might be hard code in the source. Check out ioquake github

kill logs wouldn't be in a pk3, they are in a separate log folder if I recall correctly. And I'm not sure this is generated if you're just playing normally, it may just be a server-created log.

Hello, I am not talking about the logs, I'm talking about customizing the killfeeds ie replace sentences like "Stripes ate Doom's rocket" by something stupid like "Stripes got pwned like a big fat ugly turd by Doom"

ohh I gotcha. If I had to guess, I'd search baseq3 first. Next possibly the executable itself. Clone https://github.com/ioquake/ioq3 and search all files for a unique kill word.
