string doesn't display name - CesarLT - 23.09.2013

Hello everyone, title says it all..

Here's the string:

pawn Код:

new log[128];
    new pName[25];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, log, sizeof(log));
    format(log, sizeof(log), "**[SERVER]** {FFFFFF}- You're currently logged in as: {FF8921}%s{FFFFFF}.", pName);
    SendClientMessageToAll(COLOR_ORANGE, log);

When I log in, I can see only You're currently logged in as: .

Thanks in advance for the help.

You're formatting the playername in the log string, not in the pName string
Thus pName is never formatted and will be left empty
