This is a bit of a hack but works for all mods. I use metamod and print out the values passed to RegUserMsg_Post() This will give you the names of all registered events (through REG_USER_MSG) and their assigned ids including any you add for your mod.
I find it most helpful when debugging client errors dealing with unexpected messages. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Charlie Cleveland Sent: Thursday, October 02, 2003 5:21 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Host_Error under Steam Message 57 is initialized by the engine, as the first mod-level message I register is gmsgSelAmmo, which returns a message ID of 66.
