Many mods no longer work with major updates as they hook directly into HL2 via memory references (which while gives them access to specific features, completely breaks the mod after an update is released, because these addresses change as a result of simply updating the game code).
Alfred's already said they shouldn't be doing this, so perhaps instead Valve should make these functions assessable directly via the SDK, or the mod authors should stop doing it. - Andrew -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kingsley Foreman Sent: Monday, 29 May 2006 9:16 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds] Thanks, Valve, for ANOTHER update that CRASHES HL2!!! looks and go why didnt u take part in the beta test to make sure this didnt happen to u then?
