> First, is there a way to re-enable 'fopen()'?
Fopen is redefined in the preprocessor settings for the debug build. It's fine to reenable it as long as you realize you won't get the features of the steam filesystem (like searchpaths, support for gcf files, automatic updates, etc). For a log file you probably don't care. This define is a guard to prevent mistakes while we were coding HL2. Also, there is built in logging functionality in HL2. The engine implments these: static ConVar sv_logsdir( "sv_logsdir", "logs", FCVAR_ARCHIVE, "Folder in the game directory where server logs will be stored." ); static ConVar sv_logfile( "sv_logfile", "1", FCVAR_ARCHIVE, "Log server information in the log file." ); static ConVar sv_logecho( "sv_logecho", "1", FCVAR_ARCHIVE, "Echo log information to the console." ); static ConVar sv_log_onefile( "sv_log_onefile", "0", FCVAR_ARCHIVE, "Log server information to only one file" ); CON_COMMAND( log, "Enables logging to file, console, and udp < on | off >." ) So you can just do: Log on at the console. And then you can use the Log() command in dbg.h to output logged data. If you need something more than that you can write your own log or hook ours in the debug library.
